How do you all get your PD measurement? Isn't that very specific to the eyewear that you pick out? Typically, the person measures it while you have the frame on your face. Thanks.

Lots of ways on the internet to measure that. I am also looking for a new pair, so I measured three different online methods and they all came out the same. There are even vendors that scan your picture and measure for you.

I had SportRx put lenses in a pari of Oakley Flak 2.0 XL shades. That was over 6 years ago, and luckily my prescription hasn't changed much since then and they still are good, because that was not a cheap!

I got 2 flavors of lenses: "start to finish" and "blackout". The former is great for evenings and mornings and sun/shade mix in the woods. The latter is great for bright sun road rides.
