I never used to before because I wore glasses. Now that I finally can wear a pair of oakleys, when my new ones come in I most likely will.

Only thing I'm debating is to rock the blue lenses which are polarized. Or the red lenses which are not polarized... The frame is supposed to be a gunmetal color so we'll have to see when they arrive. The theme of the car is Black/Red so I'm thinking the blue will clash... but polarized lenses ftw.

I wear glasses, the ones that turns to shade when UV hits it, forgot what they're called. Transitions. Had contacts but (ex) girlfriend flushed them down the toilet. Bought some nice oaks right after i got em.

Yeah I didn't think they were worth the cost so I never got those. Plus I worked in dim lighting conditions looking at a bright screen, couldn't have them going nuts 'transitioning' all the time...

Then again you probably don't have an astigmatism in each eye and, light sensitive. Lol

Sweet!! Awesome sir! I've been wanting to do mine for a while now. Just don't know cost or risks, etc.

Mine cost $4k and the risks are less than .05% of something happening. It's one of the least risky surgeries you can get. Provided you do as you're told afterwards with remembering to use the drops.

4k...? Yeah, I'll just deal with these glasses lol.

I had PRK done on my eyes so I'm always wearing one of my Oakleys. Gotta protect my 20/10 vision and look good in the Z.

Now all I have to do is fine some motivation to install all these parts on my ride

RedNismoZ · 01-14-2012, 12:38 PM

Knife laws are stupid.

Most insurances cover it... Or at least half. It would be something worth looking into.

I got PRK as well. How long until you got to 20/10. I'm still 20/20 at best...

I had mines done back in 05. I just recently had an eye exam and the doc couldn't even tell I had surgery.

Now I just use it for spotting speed enforcement on the highways
