sunglasses for wind sensitive eyes
Quote | Reply
Do any of you have suggestions for sunglasses for sensitive eyes? I need a set for cycling. I have bad allergies, and the wind from cycling makes my eyes very irritated. Sometimes I have trouble keeping them open while cycling since they get so sensitive.

Any suggestions on a set of shades that will block out most of the wind?

Thanks.

Oakley M-frames are the classic.

But Rudy Project Syluro are the future!
I wear contacts and have to wear eye protection no matter what. I'm a big Rudy fan and the Syluro is their best yet.

Horus is good too, but I don't like a full frame while riding.

I'm very happy with my RudyP. Freeons - blocks the wind and doesnt bother me when in aero position.

The key is getting something that has changable lenses so you can wear them on low light days.

I have Oakley M-Frames and love them but before I scraped together the cash to get them and a few extra lenses, I rode for a couple of years using a $35 pair of glasses I got from Performance bike. The M-Frames are much better in several ways (more durable, the lenses don't scratch as easy, better optics etc) but in terms of basic wind blockage, there is virtually no difference so if money is an issue, you can go cheap and get what you need.

Anything will be better than riding without glasses if the wind and dust bother your eyes so if you can't go top of the line, just get what you can afford.

Or transistions lenses. Very happy with my racing jacket transitions (well, except for what they cost...), good coverage and vents too.
