Free Oakley from Lux!
I can't comment re: VL but I recently purchased a pair of SR (from Spain) fire iridium polarized for a needy pair of e-wires.
Original Oakley lenses are scarce for this model, and, to be honest I wanted to give a fair try to the aftermarket.
The FIP lenses fit as well as OEM, their colour is slightly more yellow while OEM is more orange.
I notice the lenses produce a minor displacement of the image when the glasses are moved vertically, but none of that effect when the glasses are displaced horizontally. I've not been able to reproduce this effect with any of my OEM lenses.
I also notice that when testing the polarization by rotation against another polarized lens, the darkening effect seems to occur at around 45 degrees, while OEM lenses darken sooner (maybe 30 degrees or so). I've no idea what this means practically, but that's my observation...
So far, they produce no headaches in 2 weeks of heavy use, and that was my main concern. I am quite sensitive to visual disturbance and subject to migraines.
What I've learned is that for $30, you can be satisfied, but I'd still jump through hoops for OEM.
R U listening Lux??
