Sunglasses that have less surface area but the actual glass is better quality?
Ill see if I can get a pic up. I have 2 sets of glasses.

Basically I got those old style square rectangular glasses with 2 square windows on each side. They may let a little bit of light in on the bottom(my eyebrows,fringe probably black the sun on top) but they are orange polaroid.

The other ones are bolle brand. They are wrap around sort of dark blue, non-polaroid but alright quality I think.

Which pair do you think is better.

Ill see if i can post pics of them when I get around to taking a photo of them.

I got a picture will upload in about 4 hours when i have a spare moment. thanks.

Hi

Can't comment on old sunglasses without seeing them, first. Over long periods of time, though, an optically better model will produce much less eye fatigue. When in doubt, always go with optical quality.

by seeing them. do you mean seeing them in person or a picture of them?

Hi

Optically better - how sharp, how clear. Yes, I would have to see them to evaluate them for optical quality.
