stanton, if you bought them off an oakley dealer, they would have replaced them under warranty.

This was back in 20000 the glasses rims went brittle & cracked in extreme cold so they were obviously not up to the job. I find cheap glasses do the job just as well.

is to be careful. Very Cheap sunglasses often have cheap darkened lenses, rather than, UVA-B protection. This, then when exposed to bright light, causes dialation of the pupil, letting in harmful UVA-B rays.

Dont forget your skin colour changes when exposed to the sun, because it causes the body to produce more melanin,a skin condition from the pituitary gland.
Melanin prevents your skin from absorbing harmful ultra violet light, which can burn the skin.
But the pituitary gland only knows how much melanin to make from the signals it gets from the eye. If the eye says it sunny, the pituitary gland goes into overdrive. But if you wear sunglasses the gland is fooled,less melanin is produced and sunburn can result.
This may explain the soaring rates of deadly skin cancer, like melanomas in afflunet countries

So either way, you're screwed.
No sunglasses, you get catarat. Sunglasses, skin cancer.
