Hello,
I want to gift my husband with a pair of Oakleys, and need help deciding. Specifically, I am wanting to pick the right model given that he plays basketball indoor & outdoor, as well as Ultimate outdoors, mostly day time, but sometimes with artificial light at night. They would double as protection - he was elbowed in the eye playing basketball a few years ago, causing a cataract, and recently had to have eye surgery - and sunglasses, so I want to get him interchangeable lenses. More information about my guy - he's Asian, has a round face, with big cheeks. And no, there's no way I can get him to wear goggles, and I've heard of many people saying Oakleys did the trick and allowed the peripheral vision needed.
I've research this and about tied myself into knots at this point. I have been told by various folks to get Asian fit M Frames or M2's and a couple swearing by Radars.I am leaning towards Radars, but which? PRIZM or polarized? Which lens? I'd like to get him lenses to play - yellow tint is recommended for outdoor basketball - and clear possibly for indoors.
I would appreciate your advice.
Thanks!
