Featured Replies

Finally got my new Maui Jim prescription sunglasses.  i love these glasses because i have horrible vision and they let me have see clear and far.  They are the Maui Jim MJ Sport.

i hope so also, in about a month i will become a first time boat fishermen and hopefully these will help me see the beds during the spawn.

If you don't mind telling, how much? I have horrible vision and need prescription sunglasses also!

ok dont faint when you hear this, but they were $700.00 before my insurance kicked in, after insurance they were $400.00.  the lenses cost around $550.00 and the frames were around $150.00 before insurance.

from pearlvision.  these glasses go all the way down to -3.5 prescription.  i have -3.75 so i had to get the -3.5, but its not big of a difference.  also if your eyes are not the same prescription it is going to most likly cost more.  my eyes are both -3.75.

Are the lenses a specially coated from Maui Jim or where they made my Pearle Vision??   I wear titanium Oakley XX's and I got tired of spending big bucks on Rx lenses from Oakely.  My local place sells me replacement lenses for about 65 bucks.   I have 5 sets of XX frames, one for every possible use :)

from my understanding maui jim does not allow independent companies to make their own lenses.  only maui jim can make lenses for there frames.

i have heard alot of bad things about ordering prescription sunglasses online due to they will not be exactly centered for you eyes since they dont measure this most of the time.

ah ok, i only looked at the home page for the north america part of the site.  im happy with mine though, i really like maui jim.

Oakley has a similar "rule"  My lensgrinder is happy to make mine in any shade, tint, polarized or not for 65 bucks a pair :)  Honesly, I don't even notice the Oakley coating not being on them. That stuff scratches almost instantly anyway.
