How do you get tinted prescription glasses?
My mom always wants to borrow my shades. But then she remembers she can’t use them because she needs prescription glasses. I want to get her something she can use for summer.
I live in the Philippines by the way.

Whoever you order the prescription glasses from applies the tint as part of the process. So just
get the prescription glasses from a optometrist that offers your choice of tinted lenses. As a last step in the process, the tint is applied after the prescription lens has been grounded. ….There are tinted lenses you can request rose tint in various shades, or blue, etc There are also transition
lenses that automatically change from clear to dark when the person
goes from indoors to sunlight. For true complete eye protection from
sunlight, I bought Eagle Eye Sunglasses that protect the eyes from 100% of Ultra Violet A&B and Blue Rays. They have models that slip over regular clear prescription glasses. They help prevent Macular Degeneration, that
shows up in old age due to sun damage of the eyes. Their website is http://www.eagleeyes.com I began wearing them when the doctor found I have macular degeneration in both eyes….Tinted lenses don’t necessarilly protect the eyes from all the harmful rays of the Sun…. Eagle Eyes do, but they are not made in prescriptions. I like their amber lens best. It’s impresive how sharp everything looks when wearing them outdoors. - Comment Feed for this Post
I highly suggest you get it online. I order from http://optical4less.com and I know that they offer this service. Choose a pair that you like and fill out the prescription and then you can add tinting to it. It’s that simple and the price is extremely cheap too. They ship internationally so living in the Philippines will not be a problem at all. Good luck!
