YES. @Joe Momma said he gets a tingle up his leg every time a Dillon lens slides into an Oakley frame

Having hand cut a set of throw away Dillon NIR lenses, I would advise against. They are nothing like cutting OEM Oakley lenses by hand/dremel. They are much softer and incredibly prone to chipping. This has happened to another hand-cutter as well....on multiple sets.
