Matt, one of the best things I did last year was to get some prescription Ray-Ban sunglasses with the amber tint.

It does make a big difference when you can SEE what the model is doing!
I am overdue for mine. Just got a new set of office and close up glasses....hi index super clarity type. Made only a small difference by correcting my PRX, not so much because of improved clarity. Interestingly, seeing someone else plane is NP

Keep hearing about how good Ray-Bans and Serengetis are but don't have personal experience. My optician said the best you can do is get polarized...two colored lenses bonded at right angles to one another rather than tinted. Tinted lenses are colored on their surfaces only, not through the lens, that's why you have color options. Polarized is what I'll get except they only come in neutral grey or red-brown. Oh, he also said that Ray Ban and Serengeti are not so much lenses, but rather frames. The very best is optical glass but in my PRX they would be so heavy I'd have a constant neck pain.

Still, want to see AMA adopt larger pattern planes. Since weight don't matter, neither does size...oh weight, I heard size does matter
