Great lightweight flip-ups to turn any pair of glasses into sunglasses
I have a pair of wide framed aviator-style prescription glasses that I wear because they're lightweight and comfortable for every day use. These flip-up, clip-on sunglasses fit perfectly on these frames and allow me to go from regular glasses to sunglasses in less than a second. I remember these being popular in the 80's and 90's and it seemed like every dad with glasses had a pair of flip up sunglass lenses. I was tired of having to pull out my second pair of prescription sunglasses every time I went outdoors momentarily or switch glasses while driving. They're more convenient than transition lenses because they work instantly so you don't have to wait for your glasses to lighten up after you've been outside. They're polarized as advertised and have a pretty dark tint on them. The clip assembly is sturdy and well made unlike some other clip-ons I tried from amazon, and there's little rubber covers on the clip so it doesn't scratch up your lenses. Overall, they're a great cheap and easy solution for turning regular glasses into sunglasses.

check the fitting to your plastic precision frames
I have been using this one for few days, including 2 times 2-hour driving, one passing through a tunnel in driving and an afternoon at the sunny beach.What urges me to come up writing the review is that tunnel experience. The "clip-on" feature works perfectly on this circumstance. I could flip up the sun glasses lenses quickly myself, without the trouble taking a whole sunglasses off my precision glasses.Before this, I used the sunglasses over the precision glasses, which somehow introduced more blind spots for me, since the sung glasses frames do not fit 100% on my glasses, and the two legs of the extra pair of glasses just occlude more my 50' angle vision (rear right side of the car, even when I turn my head to the rear right). That's why I decided to give this inexpensive pair of clip on a try.The first thing you really want to be careful before the purchase is whether this would fit your frame or not. As stated by other reviewers, there is a "bar" underneath the black spring clip, that may cause the clip-on lenses too high on top of your precision glasses. I would like to added that it is not just the existence of this bar, but also the "shape" of this bar may be the cause. The bar is in ㄇ shape so that this ㄇ together with the two rubber ends of the clip can squeeze your precision lenses in the middle. But this bar would only want to stay on top of the top end of your precision glasses frame... and that's probably why the clip on ends up riding too high.My solution: I use a pair of scissors to slowly cut off that two legs of the ㄇ-shape bar... which mitigates the issue slightly.. but not completely. Now the clip-on almost fits on top of my glasses, except the inner corners of the frames of the two lenses was a little bit outside the sun glasses lenses.The lenses darken the view pretty well when it is sunny (tested by the glittering shining reflection of the waves at the beach). But since this pair is so inexpensive, I am not sure how well it protects my eyes from sun light .... I did feel a bit eye sore after these two days of using it. But that could have just been the beach is too sunny...... I will come up update when I have more info/review about this.In the shipped package, there is a lazer pattern sticker. It says "TEST: wear glasses to see the beautiful pattern." On the sticker it shows a fisherman swing when you look at it with bare eyes. When you look at the sticker through the sun glasses, the "fish" shows up. I am not sure why this is a good test for a pair of sun glasses. But when I tried with my other polarized sun glasses, this happens too. I did the simple polarized test by this and another pair of sun glasses too, and at some angle, the light is occluded more then at other angles.The lenses are not super delicate for scratch. I keep it in the black sleeve that come with them, and put it in my purse. I think there may have been some pressing against them in my purse. But it has been fine. The edge of the lenses is not hurt/scratch yet.Bottom line: this is a good inexpensive solution for driving with precision glasses for short trips (under 2 hrs). If you are seeking for more eye care kind of thing, then this price of sun glasses may not give you too much protection on your eyes from the sun.

Fast delivery, works as advertised, non-intrusive!
These lightweight lenses clip on easily. They work well reducing the glare from oncoming headlights. Mine came with a nice cloth cse to store them in when not in use. Great value. Thanks!

Doesn’t work with aviators with upper support bar
Wish these fit my glasses! I have aviator prescription glasses and the upper support bar prevents these from clipping on correctly. It leaves a gap at the bottom which looks wonky.

Fills it's need
I have several sets of these for all the different vehicles I drive. They work great for when I forget my sunglasses. They easily attach to my glasses and fully cover my lens. I wish they were a bit darker but it is better than the sun shining in your eyes.

DON'T BUY - RUN AWAY.
Those glasses are complete crap.I purchased the black version which worked pretty fine for about two months of light use. Then I decided to order another set - this one for when I am driving during the night. That is when the black set broke completely. Actually it didn't break but fall a part. I.e. It completely disassembled into three independent parts. It took me a while to figure out how to put it together so it will stay together but in 5 minutes they were back to normal. I was happy I was having my shades back. My happiness didn't last long: a week later it happened again. After that it took 2 days and then shorter and shorter time. At the end of the third month I was assembling them 3-4 times a day. this is when I retired them and I took my 4 years old, scratched shades and threw those away. I thought I had a bad batch or something, the new yellow (night vision) version seemed pretty durable to me. I've used them probably 4 times in the first month but as the days become shorter here in south California, I started using them more and more . on the second month - I got the spontaneous dis-assembly problem with this one as well.Those clip-ons are complete waster of your money. If you can drive while searching the car floor for the pieces and are able to assemble them with one hand while driving without looking at them, than you probably should purchase them. Otherwise STAY AWAY FROM THOSE.the three pieces are held together by two notches of soft plastic which goes away after short time and then you end up with a piece of junk that cannot be put together of if you can, you cannot keep it together for too long. I purchased my other set 4 years ago and aside from messed up pads and major wear and tear due to long usage, they lasted for 4 years. this one - doesn't last 4 weeks.I would never buy those again.When buying, zoom-in and check whether the clip mechanism is out of plastic and if it is, DON'T BUY - RUN AWAY.
