For my non-bicycling prescription sunglasses that I bought for vehicle driving, same answer, a tinted pair and non-tinted pair. I am legal to drive without but I want both to be able to read the signs farther away.

I got the transitions when I was working, at that time I was only allowed to buy one pair every two years, and the transitions price was pretty low under the employer contract.
