Which lens to get?

I'm looking at the Oakley Flak 2.0 XL for playing tennis and pickleball. My initial concern is mainly eye protection. Typically I wear no sunglasses outdoors at the moment so for outside I'd want something that helps with the light a little bit, but that I could still use in overcast conditions for eye protection. Indoor, my main concern is eye protection.
I'm thinking I can do clear and that covers me for inside and if I wear for outside, I get the protection and I don't wear sunglasses today so it's the same as that. Or I can do the low light lens for both indoors and outdoors, but I can't find that anywhere that I can get a this frame with the low light lens, so I guess I'd have to buy something initally and then add that lens separately. If I'm buying the lens separately, I may as well then just get clear and use that inside and buy Trail, Trail Torch of Field lens for outside, no?
Or does the low light lens provide other advantages over clear inside and I could still use it outside so that should be the 2nd lens?
 
He is just jerking your chain. He’s one of the few individuals with a great sense of humor
Cute. I found a good reddit thread that really fits my exact use case.

I think I'm going to get the frame with clear lenses for inside and an extra pair of Prizm Trail Torch for outside.
 
Please try the Flak 2.0 frame first. Even though we (and the wife) have about 15 pairs, I don’t care for them. I always see the frame with my peripheral vision and it’s irritating. Just not for me. Plenty of people praise them though.

Yes, I was just in a sunglasses hut and seemed ok
 
Right on! Lots of people don’t try on certain models and just buy them only to find out the down falls later. One thing I will say, Flak 2.0 is very comfy and the unobtainable socks and nose pads grip the face very well
