  I have two pair of 7 Eyes that I like, The Diablo, & the Cape, both have adjustable temples and the air shield which I removed. I needed a pair of glasses to fit a small to medium face since my head size is a 6 & 7/8ths peanut. I tried a pair of Willy X wit the air shield but found them to big for my face and took them back!....DH

I also have a wide round head. I wear the Oakley wind jackets. Fit great, interchangeable lenses, hard and soft  case, removable gasket (although I always leave it in), and strap. They stay in place, no vibration. Love them

Small hat size for me and I use a Wiley-X model they have discontinued. I will need to start all over again looking for the glasses I like. I use Costa's in the car and love the Wave glass but I need polycarbonate in the bike for safety reason. I also insist on a liner of some sort to keep out all the blowing grit that finds its way around an unsealed frame.

I just ordered some Maui Jims Watermans today in my prescription. I will need to cut the strap off to wear them with my ff helmet but in the store they seemed perfect. I wear Maui Jims every day when I'm driving and in my opinion their rose lenses are absolutely the best lenses I have ever had and I am excited to be able to get a pair that I can wear on my bike. These seem like a perfect pair for my bike with the rubber gasket.

I have Maui Jim prescription progressive lenses, love them, I can now see the detail info on the nav system.  They are pricey but worth it.

Yea, I did progressive as well. Its hell getting old..

How many of the glasses mentioned below have a gasket? I really like having a gasket, otherwise my eyes water like mad. I need to invest in a good pair.

I have 2 pairs of 7 eyes (Panoptic), one photo chromatic and the other just a dark tint, and a pair of Wiley-X. All of them have gaskets, the 7 eyes are foam and the Wiley-X is more like neoprene. The Wiley-X gasket is too airtight for my preference, I get all sweaty around the eyes with those, the others breathe better.

Those are what I have in my regular glasses, but would like to get them in sunglasses for driving and riding.  Any recommendations for places to get them?

I ended up buying at my eye Dr's office.  I checked around at several of the prescription glasses big chain stores, online stores and the Dr's office was the best price, around $600.

Wiley X, $140. Don't use the foam. Stick on 2.5 reading lenses, priceless.  ($12. on Ebay.)  Tried some other types at Street Vibrations, however:

I use mostly my prescription Oakley Wind Jackets. I do like my Wiley X when I wear contacts.
