    Opthalmic Sunglass Frame with Side Shields.

    My best friends sister is losing an eye to cancer. She can't get a prosthetic eye. I want to make her sunglasses with side shields. Can anyone tell me what's available?
    Thanks

    Please use an approved safety frame with polycarbonate or trivex lenses.

    Yeah, I carry these in my store. But, fashion-wise, they will make you look like you're cruising to make love to a thug in the club with his sights on, 87 jeans and a fresh pair of Nike's on.

    Chyeah, bbblatt, killah, and so on ad nauseam.
