What Does This Mean?

Looking at the description for some Oakley prescription sunglasses I see the following point:

Available with Oakley prescription lenses (+2.00 through -3.00 combined power)

What does this mean? My eyes are -3.25(right) and -2.25(left). Does that mean I have a combined power of -5.50?

no.. that means they can make lenses for your left eye, but not quite for your right? correct me if im wrong. 'combined power' just means "overall effect" from both the RX insert and the actual lens..

^^Indeed. Anything over a +/- 3 cannot be made using an official Oakley prescription lens.

I was told that Oakley generally doesn't do prescription lenses when your prescription is over a 2.25 or 2.50 by my authorize oakley prescription retailer
