I’ve had several pairs of prescription sunglasses from Optilabs. I’ve not had varifocal, as I don’t find I need them on the bike, even though I wear them in everyday life. I just order online, send them a copy of my prescription and they send them after a week or so. They do make varifocal sunglasses according to their website. Expect to pay about £190, but they often have a £20 off deal around Christmas time.

i used extreme eyewear for single vision Oakleys this time last year. Great service and I got a Black Friday discount. RX sport another option, they have 10% off for BF

none will be cheap if looking at direct glazed sports frames (mine were around £300 but I go for transitions rather than just clear)

I have some Optilabs varifocal reactolites, I no longer wear them as I have some varifocal sunglasses and some some varifocal reactolites from Specsavers which I find far superior, the sun glasses are sports the reactolites are normal glasses. They were both cheaper than Optilabs.

Maui Jim do a good varifocal wrap with polarised and gradient options. They’ll stop your eyes watering but they’re not cheap (mind you, neither are bikes 🤔)

These are not varifocal but are bifocal. Very useful when consulting maps or to see the dashboard when driving:

Currently selling at £43:99. Click here for more info.

Not much to add. I have some Optilabs varifocal that are reactolite or whatever it's called.

I bought a pair from Vison Express, essentially cycling glasses with a prescription insert. However...... While they were great on the move, as soon as I stopped they steamed up, necessitating removal and thorough cleaning. I tried several solutions of anti-fog but nothing worked.

Optilabs variofocal transitions drivewear.Being drivewear they tint when in the car,standard transitions don’t. I’ve been using Optilabs 10+ years and can’t fault them.Before my prescription became too strong I used Oakley but find Optilabs as good as and cheaper.

i just wear my regular specsaver varifocal sunnies, but I'm tempted by the Optilabs for more a sports "look" and shape to prevent any "wind around the side" issues.
