Which brand of sunglasses do you all recommend?

Spec savers have some nice ones if you have to have prescription glasses.

I wanted some prescription sunglasses with big lenses so the sunlight didn’t shine in at the top. I bought a pair of Balmain and they do a great job.

You can go to any opticians and they have a decent selection of designer sunglasses,then just buy them as they are, plain ‘glass’ if you don’t need lenses. Also, look on Glasses Direct etc on line, you will be spoilt for choice!??????

Another chronic migraine sufferer here, although they disappeared during menopause...thankfully!!

Anyway, I get distance prescription glasses from Specsavers, you can get several colour tints, I prefer grey, and I also get them polarised.

No affiliation with SS but some of their frames are quite cost effective and still fashion styles and colours.

Hope this helps? ;-)

Lusually get mine from M and S.....

Migralens from RNIB great for migraine sufferers

I have reactolite coatings to every pair of glasses I buy as my eyes are quite sensitive to light so I don't need sunglasses, I just choose glasses frames and it's sorted. The coatings add a little to the cost but until I retired I got them free with the medical cover I had from work. That's another expense I'll have now, so I'm glad I managed to squeeze an appointment in during my last month at work!

Check out Maui Jim's..
Not cheap but I feel so worth it. Cool styles, polarised, and can be bespoke to your prescription using same brand of lenses. These run in parallel to Ray Bans in the USA in price.
Check them out, worth a look.

Boots, nearly always, except if abroad.

I got mine from Boots opticians not the chemist. Quite cheap but good.

As long as mine are polarised I don’t mind.

T K Maxx stores have a wonderful selection of many of the top brand names in sunglasses, I never fail to find ones I like in our local branch, and the price is right too.

Get ones with Polarised lenses, cuts out the glare etc.

I get cheap ones from Lidl/Aldi. But I broke a pair on hols in France (2019!) and bought “expensive” ones from a glasses shop there - cost about €10 instead of €5 I usually spend. I’ve a friend who worked in an optician and could get the designer ones reduced, but I really couldn’t see the difference between hers and mine.

Another one here who gets their sun glasses from Boots!

I have some prescription Ted Bakers which are great sturdy but stylish- I have sat on them and they were fine.
Juts for the garden or walking about I have several pairs of Boots own which are great and only cost about £20.

I have to have prescription lenses, my favourite frames are Calvin Klein and Tom Ford. I can’t see at all in bright sunlight so I like quite a big wide frame to block out more light.

How about Ted Baker Nevva ? I was looking at those yesterday and they are rather nice!
