Questions & Answers
Hi there! I once ordered the AO frames in all black (57mm). I'd like to get them as Rx glasses and wonder if you still carry them? Expert Answer

Unfortunately a few years back AO started coating the black frames and it did work well at all so they just completely wiped out the black frames. We haven't been able to order them for a couple years.

Is it possible to get these glasses photo grey prescription? I found the military issue back in the 60s very sturdy. Expert Answer

Yes, there is an option to select a Transition lens. However you can only see these options on an actual PC (mobile devices will not work).

The glasses are top notch and classy as always, althoug I would not recommend using polarized lenses for anything but flying, as they enable you to see weird patterns on most glass surfaces including car windshields and mirrors. For everyday use go w...

Helpful Positive Review Great product, looooong processing time. by Jack Burton, August 29, 2014
I've had non-prescription AO sunglasses for years and recently ordered this prescription pair. The product is great. Same AO frames I've always liked and the gray polycarbonate lenses look and work great. The prescription is accurate as well, althoug...

Helpful Positive Review Great sunglasses by zesty, September 4, 2014
These sunglasses seem sturdy and comfortable. I've worn them for hours on a long trip and they were pretty comfortable. Only 4/5 stars because they're going to need some adjustment and the shipping was incredibly slow.

Helpful Positive Review AO Rx Sunglasses by Legacy Reviewer, August 8, 2013
These are really nicely made. I would suggest that you try to find some to size fit before ordering as they tend to be a dash larger that I expected. Pros: Quality Sunglasses with Rx Cons: None
