Thanks in advance,

You might also consider Scheyden aviator sunglasses. They have a flip up frame (both regular and prescription) that is extremely useful while flying when there are clouds and you are going from bright sunlight to shade under a cu. Also good for looking at charts, PDAs, etc without having to physically remove your sunglasses.

A bit expensive, but I love mine. Excellent optics and a rugged frame.
