LASIK......LOL.........MAYBE A DIFF STYLE FRAME OR LENS CHOICE FOR SUNGLASSES?
I FIND SOME OF THE OAKLEY FRAME/LENS STYLES WORK WELL UP TO AND OVER 100 MPH
WHILE DRIVING AND AS A PASSENGER LOOKING AROUND IN ALL DIRECTIONS AND AINT LOST A PAIR YET.
IM SURE THEY WONT BE CHEAP WITH THE RX LENS BUT .....IT YOUR EYES AND ASS AT 100.

Wiley X has some with foam gaskets that seal out the wind. Some are RX ready. I bought a pair but haven't used them at speed yet.

One thing to check when trying them on. I push the bridge towards my face to make sure they can't contact my eyes, like the wind pushing against them. My Onos will actually lay right on my eyes at speed.

X2 on the WileyX. I just broke down and bought them from a local shop, so I could be sure they fit my face. They have gaskets, and made a huge difference in my view at WOT. Mine are full prescription.

I know this sounds silly, and everyone makes fun of it. But if you go to rite aid, wallgreens, or cvs type stores. They have a section that is all the crap that you see on tv. The sun glasses, I think they are made by blue blocker or something like that are really good. I have a couple of pair always laying around. They have been almost 120 on the water. Very little wind and they do help to read the water and see stuff floating . They are like $12. not a big deal if they fall off. Go ahead now and make fun.

My Oakley Holbrooks hold up well over 100, with no issues. The polarized lenses are great

I have prescription costa del mars that wrap around pretty well. I have about $600 in them so I take very good care of them but Im blnd without them. Actually, Im partially blind on the right side even with them. Make sure to get poly carbonate lenses because a bug will take your eye out at high speed.
