I'm seriously interested in reading more about this subject. How do other brands (RayBan, Maui Jim etc) compare to Oakley and the after market lenses? 99.9% of people out there don't wear Oakley, and most optometrists sell many other brands - if Oakley optics are so much better why do optical professionals not point this out to customers spending hundreds of dollars on glasses? I don't mean Sunglass Hut and other stores that don't do testing and optical correction, they obviously have a vested interest in selling the most expensive glasses they can. I'm talking about the medical professionals who's job it is to protect and correct their patient's vision - I've been to many over the years, and never had one recommend Oakley over another brand due to possible long term damage of using less perfect optics.
Like I said, this interests me having worn corrective lenses for 30 years (although switched to contacts in the last 10 purely so I could wear "normal" sunglasses and not have to switch between a clear pair and tinted pair of correctives all the time).
