I wish I could give these five stars, but the cool factor has to amount for something, right?  That's really my only complaint with these.  They are definitely function over form.  I'm okay with that, but there needs to be some kind of disclosure.

I've never had a problem with my eyes being sensitive to sunlight.  In fact, this is only the second pair of sunglasses I have ever owned.  My first pair was a prescription pair.  Unfortunately, I can't afford to buy two pairs of glasses every time I get my prescription updated.  When you have blue light sensitivity, astigmatism, strabismus, and bifocals all at the same time, lenses tend to get a bit expensive.

I thought about numerous different solutions, but my optometrist recommended these.  At first, I resisted because of the cool factor (or lack thereof).  However, there just comes a time when a person needs to do what he or she needs to do in order to keep his or her sanity.

It happened on the way to work one morning.  I couldn't see the road because of the blinding sunlight combined with a windshield that probably got cleaned the last time I had to drive to work into the blinding sunlight nine months ago.  I broke down and ordered these, and I have to say that I'm pretty happy with them.  They are lightweight, so it doesn't really feel like I'm wearing anything extra.  Plus, the small lens on each side not only allows me to continue to use my peripheral vision while driving, but it also allows that peripheral vision to be protected from the sunlight.

These have now become my official driving glasses.  However, when I was driving with my nephew last month, I had to make him promise to not laugh at me before I would put them on.  Of course, he laughed anyway, but at that point, I think it was more because I told him not to.
