Doesn't seem to exist. In fact, it appears I'm supposed to somehow carry 3 different pairs of glasses on my person at all times and switch them out when the weather changes!!!!! I wear full jersey kit to ride....
What do other cyclists/commuters do?
My eyesight isn't bad enough to need glasses all the time. I just need them for;
headlight glare
Seeing road signs before I'm 15 feet away (and assuring myself that no, that's not a donkey in the middle of the road 1/4 of a mile away).
Blinding sun
wind/pollen/debris/rain blocking
Uhh.... that's pretty bad IMHO. You need to always use glasses if that is the case..... again, IMO.
