    Any reccomendations for inexpensive clip-on sunglasses. I'll be in the mountains in the soutwest 7,000 to 12,000 feet for 10 days.

    Thanks,

    I have used the brand called Sun Shield available at both WalMart and Walgreen's.

    They come in two styles – "fit over flip up frame" and "clip on" which clips to the edges of the eyeglass frame in four locations.

    The clip-on type require a bit of manual dexterity to be removing and adding, but the flip-up allow easy switching between regular vision and sun protection.

    They both come in several shapes to better fit the different shapes of prescription eyeglasses, so you have to do a little fitting.

    I like the good fit I got with the clip-on and my particular eyeglass frames.
