I wanted to pass on my observations with my new Invis safety glasses. Links below, details below, bottom line: I would buy again.
There were two reasons I wanted them. One being that they are photo active, and the other that they are non-polarized.
Let me talk about photo activity first. I frequently find in these winter months that the sun is intermittent at best. I usually would just wear my sun glasses, or change over to some Gearbox clear glasses. But that was not convenient. So the photo active part was wanted. The question is how dark do they get? I've found that they get dark enough. I've never found that they were not dark enough. I've not used these enough to fully state that on a full sun day that these would be as good as sunglasses. But I don't notice additional sun shine, so I think this works for highly variable sun days.
My sunglasses are polarized, but I've heard, probably from a glasses manufacturer, that polarized lens will cause problems with depth perception. But polarized lens cut down on glare, which is a real situation this time of year. So this problem and solution might not be solvable. I find the glare an issue, but I might be seeing the ball better. I'm on a pretty good play streak right now and any better vision might be part of that. I have no definitive thoughts on how well the glasses work for that.
I bought wrap around style glasses. The lenses are bit smaller than my sunglasses, but there is an adjustable nose piece that allowed me to lower glasses to a more comfortable position. I would have preferred bigger lenses. Maybe next time.
Protection: Sadly I've not been hit in the face lately so I have no data on that. They do seem solid enough to at least deflect the ball.
The glasses cost about $57, add tax and some shipping to that. They were shipped from Utah, and it took six days to get here via an unknown shipping firm. They provided tracking, but it wasn't wonderfully accurate nor updated often. The glasses are very light in weight and don't slip around. They can fog a bit if you have them situated close to your nose.
Bottom line, I would buy these again. I would look for larger lenses. Price was fine, and at the low end for glasses.
