How About My new Oakley what is Good My Here Please tell me... Oakley Racing Jacket 2018 with two Lense 1st lense is Prizm Road and the 2nd one is Black Iridium... please what is Good about Black Iridium lense
Funny how you talked about that shock factor bc when I bought these I stepped outside and put them on and wow it was like seeing the world for the first time
The Oakley Prism lenses truly are revolutionary. I have them for golf, casual wear and I bought a pair of the Road Prism glasses just as Rob mentioned, to drive in. I won't wear anything else. My analogy is like comparing analog television to high definition. It seemed that way to me. My big surprise was the first time I wore them to a football game. Now that was like watching at home on the big screen with colors that really popped. I am sold.
Hi Mark! We are happy you have discovered the benefits of PRIZM Lens Technology. Isn't it great that there are a variety to choose from for specific activities?! Thanks for sharing your experience with us!
I didn't know there were types of prizm oakley. I bought mine and it enhances green/yellows but blocks red frequencies. Used it for my daily driving. Ran 2 red lights the first month of use.
After having a pair with Prizm Polarized lenses, I'll never go back. Every single pair of sunglasses I buy from here on out will be Oakleys with the Prizm Polarized lens. They're that good
Hi James! PRIZM manages colors while a polarized lens cuts glare. A PRIZM polarized lens will enhance contrast and also cut glare. This video should cover the information you are looking for: th-cam.com/video/fpY_-RpAZ98/w-d-xo.html

Please can you help got Oakley Prizm lens and Oakley prizim polarised On a sunny day, I cannot tell the difference between Oakley prism and Oakley prism polarised on sunny day today so much glare bouncing of cars could not tell the difference between them, only could tell the difference in water for the Oakley prism polarised
Hi! You should notice an elimination or at least a reduction in glare intensity with the polarized option. Without knowing the type of Prizm polarized lens you currently use, you may want to check out one with a lower VLT percentage to reduce eyestrain.
Had a pair for a year now a don’t need specs 🤓 but the first time a tried the prizm polarised it blew my mind how good they are !!!!!it’s like a normal tv and a HD tv amazing 🤩
Release a daily polorized for the EV Advancer and a polorized road prizm 18% light transition. Think about LE when you guys lense make. Great lenses all around tho. 👍
I have Oakley Polarized glasses that are phenomenal generally. One (pretty big) problem is when I drive and use my dash board mounted iPhone for Google/Apple Maps. Everything 'moves' on the screen and I have to lower the glasses to see the screen etc.. Can you recommend what I go with next time?
Any tips on lenses? I have a pair of holbrooks I ordered with the prizm shallow water polarized I like the contrast they give but I don’t like how they aren’t mirrored and my eyes can be seen through them, I fish a lot, what’s a good color I can use for everything?
Got my first pair of Oakleys (Holbrooks) about a month ago with the Prizm Daily lens (I think Tungsten) and now I'm hooked. Bought the Sapphire mist Prizm Holbrooks a couple weeks later which I love so I just ordered another pair of Holbrooks with the deep water Prizm lenses. The Dailys really pop and the Sapphire mists are nice too do looking forward to the Deep waters. I'm addicted to Holbrooks and Prizm lenses now, might try some Frogskins prisms next! Oakleys rock
Hi there! We are stoked that you discovered PRIZM! Deep Water are amazing! We are sure you will love those too. Thanks for sharing your experience with us!
My question is, do the sapphire prizm lenses have iridium technology or it’s unnecessary? Because I need some new lenses for my Oakley jawbreaker, because I scratched the old lenses but they where sapphire iridium, now I m confused???
HI Roland! The term 'Iridium' refers to any mirror application on an Oakley lens. But more specifically, any mirrored lens without PRIZM. Technology. The Prizm Sapphire drops the 'Iridium' in it's name to avoid confusion with it's Non-Prizm counterpart. So you have the Prizm Sapphire vs. Sapphire Iridium lenses, both of which have a solid mirror application.
Love Oakley glass, I have 3 and goggles and looking to get another for sport and want something that will do great/good in lots of light conditions even dark looking out to bright and/or bright looking into dark. I’ll my lens that I have already are gray or clean. I’m boring like that. Any suggestions and/or recommendations
Hi Danny! We typically recommend PRIZM Sapphire, Jade, or Torch for maximum versatility. BUT there is a new PRIZM Snow Dark Grey lens that is darker in appearance with no mirror and works well in multiple conditions. Check out our complete PRIZM Snow Guide here: www.sportrx.com/blog/oakley-prizm-snow-lenses-guide/ Thanks for reaching out!
Hi Jorge! PRIZM polarized lenses use HDPolarized technology. We think PRIZM polarized are better than non-PRIZM polarized due to the enhanced contrast. Check our our PRIZM Polarized video, it may answer some other questions you might have: www.sportrx.com/blog/oakley-prizm-polarized/ Thanks for reaching out!

Gonna comment here as this video was great and I think your team will have the answer. I'm a game ranger, out in the African plains, mostly dawn for three hours and 3 hours before dusk but I do head out during the middle of the day too. I'm concerned about different shades having an impact on spotting animals in the field but want the best protection for my eyes. One other thing to add is i often have some glare from the bonnet of my land cruiser in my eyes. What Prizim lens style would you suggest?
Both actually! Anything with polarization will help immensely with glare reduction. There's only a 1% difference in VLT between the 2 lens options, so it really comes down to personal preference!
The problem being that I need a prescription. I do both road biking and mountain biking. I can't afford to buy to set of lenses with prescriptions. Can I use road prizm(the lightest one) for trail riding?
Hi there! You can use PRIZM Road for trail riding and we offer custom Oakley authentic lenses in YOUR prescription! If you would like to get a quote or speak to our certified opticians, you can reach them here: www.sportrx.com/contact

Hi there! Polarized lenses have been known to affect depth perception. You can find out more information on why polarized is not always the best option for your activity here: www.sportrx.com/blog/oakley-prizm-polarized/ Thanks for reaching out!
can this formula be added to my prescription Mad Dogs? They have old prescription now but I needed a new prescription which I have. So how much to do this on my Dogs, I think there called Mad Dogs, having doubts now,lol...
Hi there Joe! The Mad Dog has been discontinued so it is not available with Oakley Authentic PRIZM lenses. However we might be able to make custom SportRx lenses for your sunglasses. The pricing will vary a bit but single vision starts at $75 and progressives start at $215. Grab a copy of your rx and contact one of our certified opticians for more information: www.sportrx.com/contact
SportRx just sent in my Monster Dogs for newer prescription lenses. Hope they can do it the right way. They will receive on Friday down in San Diego , I thought you guys had a Co up by San Francisco, no biggie as long as it is done right. Tyler waited on me, what a pleasant guy to speak with. Nice calm friendly guy.
Thanks for reaching out, Mark! It sounds like PRIZM Trail or Trail Torch would be best. You can check out our lens comparison video here: www.sportrx.com/blog/oakley-prizm-trail-vs-trail-torch/ Hope this helps!
What would be the best lens for playing on a turf softball field? One major issue I have is the glare coming from the turf, and there is a time in the day where I’m staring directly at the sun
Hi Grace! Normally we would recommend PRIZM Field for softball. www.sportrx.com/blog/oakley-prizm-field-lens-technology/ However, it seems you play in extremely bright conditions and a darker tint lens may suit you best. I would recommend checking out our PRIZM polarized article: www.sportrx.com/blog/oakley-prizm-polarized/ and then contacting one of our certified opticians for further recommendations: www.sportrx.com/contact
to summarise this video, a polarised lens cuts glare and prizm manages color, where as a prizm polarised lens does both. This is the single line of statement. Peace.
hello, could you help me decide whether i should get the amber or the rose? because i think that the specs are very similar. can you tell me the diffrences of both lens colour? and maybe which would be more beneficial in their respective environments
Hi there! Ultimately it depends on what activities you are using your sunglasses for and the environment you will be in. I recommend contacting one of our certified opticians via phone or live chat to help narrow down your options: www.sportrx.com/contact
Hi Coolmanu55, It will really depend on what kind of light conditions you will be driving in. Please reach out to us at 1(888) 831-5817 to get more lens options
I am look for a good pair of Oakley sunglasses I love the look of the Oakley radars ev, but a don’t know what type of lens to pick,polarized or prizm. I play tennis and have very sensitive eyes to the sun. I want to use them for daily use and to play tennis.
Hi there! our PRIZM polarized video may help to answer some of your questions: www.sportrx.com/blog/oakley-prizm-polarized/ You can also contact one of our certified opticians to help you narrow down the options: www.sportrx.com/contact
I'm planning to buy a pair of Radar EV Paths in Prizm Road Jade. My questions is: is there any reason why I can't wear any other lenses for cycling..? I understand the explanation of polarized for certain sports, but can I wear Prizm deep water polarized for cycling if I like the color..?? It just depends on light transmission at that point, correct..?
Hi there! At the end of the day the choice is yours! We typically steer people away from a polarized lens for cycling because it cuts glare. However, in a road cycling environment you may find glare desirable because it will help you spot puddles or oil slicks on the road ahead. PRIZM Road is also fine tuned for the colors found in a road environment whereas Deep Water is tuned up to help you find contrast in a sea of blue. But like I said if Deep Water works for you then go for it!
@@sportrxeyewear Hey, thanks for the info..!! I'm just starting to learn about Oakley's so that's definitely informative. I'll probably buy the Radar EV Path with Prizm Road Jade and a clear lens first, then decide on other lenses later. (If I can take a look at them..)
Running on trails I thought the polarized would make the difference between shadows and flares of sun that pop through the trees more clear - more defined. But they don’t. Is that the polarization? Is prism plain better for varying degrees of dark and light running through the forest?
Hi there! The main benefit of a polarized lens is glare reduction. Glare occurs when vertical sun rays bounce of an object to create horizontal rays-the harsh glare is the combination of the two. PRIZM manages color. It separates the noisy colors while highlighting the colors your eyes are more sensitive to. This contrast boost helps you spot textures and details easier. I really hope this helped answer your question. If not, you can always contact one of our certified opticians here: www.sportrx.com/contact
It looks very similar from an outside perspective. PRIZM Black Polarized has a grey base but will still give you some PRIZM boost in contrast. Polarized Black Iridium does not have a contrast boost. Hope this helps!
I love Oakley and prism but I wish oakley did more colors like back in the day. Like hunter greens and reds and yellow frames u don’t this any more it’s gray black and white frames which are nice not hating but more colorful frames and lens more swapping lens u have endless combinations for you’re sunglasses .
Which non polarized prism color should I take for flying glider? I want to see the clouds better and have a better contrast between clouds and the blue sky. Which one should I take?
Hi David! PRIZM Sapphire may be a great choice because it has a grey base for optimal sun protection but will still give you great contrast enhancement. You can learn more about it here: www.sportrx.com/blog/oakley-prizm-sapphire-lens-review/
Thanks for the question! It means that there are many Prizm lens colors that Oakley makes available in prescription. It allows our prescription wearing friends to benefit from this impressive tint tech!
Hi Ethan! The great thing about PRIZM lenses is that they are catered to specific environments. So for Deep Water, PRIZM Deep Water Polarized is definitely your best option. If you live in a sunny environment then a polarized lens is also recommended for driving. PRIZM Deep Water can work there too! But a polarized lens is not always the best for golf because polarization has been known to affect depth perception. PRIZM Golf is specifically designed for the golf course environment and will make the ball easier to track and greens easier to read. You can learn more about PRIZM Lens Technology here: www.sportrx.com/blog/oakley-prizm-prescription-lenses/ Please let us know if you have any additional questions!
Is there any way I can buy a sunglasses frame without the lenses from Oakley? I am also seriously considering buying a Prizm sunglasses especially the deep water. can I also use the deep/shallow water it in everyday?
@@sportrxeyewear if I use deep water in shallow lake water, what would be the drawback? And vice a versa the Jade shallow with deep water, what then? Thanks
@@MegaAluchi if you have the money buy the changeable lens that fit your frames green shallow blue deep ,although I fly fish in sunny Scotland 🏴 and the deep water blue are brilliant tbh🙌🏻
Hi there Perry! PRIZM Trail or Trail Torch would work great if you are on trails. You can also check out PRIZM Dark Golf if you want a slightly darker lens.

I am 99% sold on Oakley’s Prizm line. My only concern is if any of the glasses ANSI approved? I am going to be in the Quarry as an MSHA compliance officer. I would like to hear back from you.

Hi Devon! In most cases 'PRIZM' is etched into the lens. If you don't see anything on the lenses, try looking up the SKU/model number. This is on the inside of the temple arm. Should start with OO9102-...When you goggle it the lens and frame color combination should come up.
@@sportrxeyewear ohh. Would I feel it? Cause I think they are. I have a different pair that is polarized qnd prizm and I think i feel the etch qt the bottom. And these one I think i feel as well. Because I can't see it well
Hi there! PRIZM Black or PRIZM Sapphire excel in bright light situations! They are both offered in polarized for maximum glare reduction but you can get non-polarized too. Feel free to contact one of our certified opticians if you need help choosing a lens: www.sportrx.com/contact
Hi SportRx, thanks for the very informative video. I am looking to get a pair of Oakley Prizm Polarized OO9449 Gibston sunglasses and wanted to know if I can wear them daily like walking, daily travel in public transport, and a day at the beach? Appreciate your help.
Hello! You ceratainly can wear your Prizm Polarized lenses for everyday viewing as well as at the beach. You may find it difficult when looking at your phone and wearing them indoors can prove to be difficult due to the darker tint associated with polarized mirrored lenses but for general outdoors you'll find they provide amazing contrast and color enhancement.
I need a good pair of glasses that I can drive my daily hour commute in and shallow water fish in. Should I get prism and polarized? What color lens would you recommend?
YES! A Polarized lens is great for fishing and driving because it cuts glare. PRIZM Shallow Water works great for shallow water fishing conditions. You can learn more about it here: www.sportrx.com/blog/prizm-shallow-water-review/ Thanks for reaching out!
There is a color palette shown the entire length of the video on the left of Sunglass Rob, and there is what appears to be a drawing of a frame above that palette.
Please make a video about the Prizm Polarised colours, Like I mean how does the Prizm polarized black look on the frame, similarly for all Prizm Polarised colours.
Hi Leonard! A non-polarized PRIZM lens is suitable for a pilot to use. We advise against getting a polarized lens if you are a pilot because it will make your instrument panel gauges more difficult to read!
Hi Mike! What I meant by my comment is that there is a lot of assumptions or ideas about PRIZM Lens Technology that may or may not necessarily be true. Some of which you may have heard and others maybe not-but we hear it all at SportRx and we made this video to provide clarification. Hope that makes sense.
Hi Kyle! Thanks for watching! I would say PRIZM Black or PRIZM Sapphire non-polarized would suit you well because these have a grey base(darker lens) but they still offer some PRIZM contrast enhancement. Also, we advise against a polarized lens because it makes gauges/screens difficult to read which is the last thing you want if you are looking at your instrument panel. I hope this helps!
SportRx yes I learned very quick polarized is a definite no. What about the Road prizm lenses? I like the rose tint but will I lose other contrast and colors?
Do all polarized lenses have the letter (P) after the word "prism" on the lens? I just got the OO9361-0957, they're supposed to be polarized but there is no (P). Thanks!
Hi there! Oakley has made some updates through the years so the P is not found on all polarized lenses. It looks like the product number indicates you should have PRIZM Deep Water polarized lenses.
Hi Gerard! We carry may Oakley frames that work great for computer use. We can create custom rx lenses with anti glare for any of your computer use needs!

Both actually! Anything with polarization will help immensely with glare reduction. There's only a 1% difference in VLT between the 2 lens options, so it really comes down to personal preference!
@@sportrxeyewear Thank you for the quick response. What is the different between the two lanses?
Can you get polarised and prizm together?
Yes! You can learn more about PRIZM polarized lenses here: th-cam.com/video/fpY_-RpAZ98/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for Great and Simple Information 😊
You are welcome, Raymond! Thanks for tuning in!
The problem being that I need a prescription. I do both road biking and mountain biking. I can't afford to buy to set of lenses with prescriptions. Can I use road prizm(the lightest one) for trail riding?

A question please,!! for every day use and for driving also what lens u suggest ??? thank u
Hello! It depends somewhat on your environment and what tint type you prefer but generally speaking the Prizm Everyday, Black, and Tungsten lenses are some of the most popular everyday lens options under the Oakleys Prizm collection.

Hi man
I just bought oakley holbrook prizm polarized Blue lenses
I have question !!? if its good for safari driving at the desert Daytime it’s really hard to focus When sunlight is reflected on the dunes
Any advice?
Hi there! You made a great choice! PRIZM Sapphire Polarized is a great lens for bright conditions! These lenses will greatly reduce the glare coming off the dunes. Let us know how they work out for you!
Am i the only one who doesnt see it correctly? I got the prizm holbrooks and everything just has a pink tint/hue to it?
Hi Andrew! What PRIZM lens do you have in your Holbrooks?
Which lenses should I get if I want to use them for multiple sports like golf, running or just being outside? which one would be the more versatile?
Hi there! PRIZM Dark Golf is a nice option for multiple activities and it is the middle of the road for light transmission. If you would like a darker everyday option, PRIZM Sapphire is always great. You can check out our entire PRIZM Guide here: www.sportrx.com/blog/oakley-prizm-prescription-lenses/

Can lense scratches be polished out? I used to use VR28 Polarised on my Flak Jackets. I have Flak 2.0's now and was wondering which lense would be closest to the old VR28s?
Hello Steve! Scratches on lenses cannot be polished out, unfortunately. If you're looking to replicate the VR28 lens, then the closest lens by comparison would be the Prizm Dark Golf! Check it out!👉 th-cam.com/video/-pRbic5nlIs/w-d-xo.html
@SportRx many thanks for the reply. I'm in the UKand uncannily, the company I use for sunglasses is called RX Sport..😎
Why are polarized lenses not good for mountain bike riding?
Hi there! Polarized lenses have been known to affect depth perception. You can find out more information on why polarized is not always the best option for your activity here: www.sportrx.com/blog/oakley-prizm-polarized/ Thanks for reaching out!
can this formula be added to my prescription Mad Dogs? They have old prescription now but I needed a new prescription which I have. So how much to do this on my Dogs, I think there called Mad Dogs, having doubts now,lol...
Hi there Joe! The Mad Dog has been discontinued so it is not available with Oakley Authentic PRIZM lenses. However we might be able to make custom SportRx lenses for your sunglasses. The pricing will vary a bit but single vision starts at $75 and progressives start at $215. Grab a copy of your rx and contact one of our certified opticians for more information: www.sportrx.com/contact
SportRx just sent in my Monster Dogs for newer prescription lenses. Hope they can do it the right way. They will receive on Friday down in San Diego , I thought you guys had a Co up by San Francisco, no biggie as long as it is done right. Tyler waited on me, what a pleasant guy to speak with. Nice calm friendly guy.
Do they make prizm polarized in silver?
Yes! The Prizm Black Iridium Polarized!
Those are silver looking? I purchased the deep waters after hearing ur reviews!
I live in BC, Canada and love to go hiking where there's a lot of green and in between trees. Which prizm lens would you recommend?

I'll watch it now and make my decision, thank you!
What would be the best lens for playing on a turf softball field? One major issue I have is the glare coming from the turf, and there is a time in the day where I’m staring directly at the sun
Hi Grace! Normally we would recommend PRIZM Field for softball. www.sportrx.com/blog/oakley-prizm-field-lens-technology/ However, it seems you play in extremely bright conditions and a darker tint lens may suit you best. I would recommend checking out our PRIZM polarized article: www.sportrx.com/blog/oakley-prizm-polarized/ and then contacting one of our certified opticians for further recommendations: www.sportrx.com/contact
Mostly used prizm skiing, am moving to my first sunglasses with prizm. My go-to lens is Rose (yeah - it's usually cloudy here).
Nice! If you like PRIZM Snow lenses then you will love PRIZM sunglasses!
to summarise this video, a polarised lens cuts glare and prizm manages color, where as a prizm polarised lens does both. This is the single line of statement. Peace.
Would the prizm polarized be the best for motorcycling??
Yes, the polarized lens will help cut glare bouncing off car bumpers and windshields on the road.
hello, could you help me decide whether i should get the amber or the rose? because i think that the specs are very similar. can you tell me the diffrences of both lens colour? and maybe which would be more beneficial in their respective environments
Hi there! Ultimately it depends on what activities you are using your sunglasses for and the environment you will be in. I recommend contacting one of our certified opticians via phone or live chat to help narrow down your options: www.sportrx.com/contact
@@sportrxeyewear alright then thankyou 🙏

I am look for a good pair of Oakley sunglasses I love the look of the Oakley radars ev, but a don’t know what type of lens to pick,polarized or prizm. I play tennis and have very sensitive eyes to the sun. I want to use them for daily use and to play tennis.
Hi there! our PRIZM polarized video may help to answer some of your questions: www.sportrx.com/blog/oakley-prizm-polarized/ You can also contact one of our certified opticians to help you narrow down the options: www.sportrx.com/contact
I'm planning to buy a pair of Radar EV Paths in Prizm Road Jade. My questions is: is there any reason why I can't wear any other lenses for cycling..? I understand the explanation of polarized for certain sports, but can I wear Prizm deep water polarized for cycling if I like the color..??
It just depends on light transmission at that point, correct..?
Hi there! At the end of the day the choice is yours! We typically steer people away from a polarized lens for cycling because it cuts glare. However, in a road cycling environment you may find glare desirable because it will help you spot puddles or oil slicks on the road ahead. PRIZM Road is also fine tuned for the colors found in a road environment whereas Deep Water is tuned up to help you find contrast in a sea of blue. But like I said if Deep Water works for you then go for it!
@@sportrxeyewear Hey, thanks for the info..!!
I'm just starting to learn about Oakley's so that's definitely informative.
I'll probably buy the Radar EV Path with Prizm Road Jade and a clear lens first, then decide on other lenses later. (If I can take a look at them..)
Running on trails I thought the polarized would make the difference between shadows and flares of sun that pop through the trees more clear - more defined. But they don’t. Is that the polarization? Is prism plain better for varying degrees of dark and light running through the forest?
Hi there! The main benefit of a polarized lens is glare reduction. Glare occurs when vertical sun rays bounce of an object to create horizontal rays-the harsh glare is the combination of the two. PRIZM manages color. It separates the noisy colors while highlighting the colors your eyes are more sensitive to. This contrast boost helps you spot textures and details easier. I really hope this helped answer your question. If not, you can always contact one of our certified opticians here: www.sportrx.com/contact
Can anyone tell me if the Prizm Polarised Black look similar with the Polarised Black iridium ??
It looks very similar from an outside perspective. PRIZM Black Polarized has a grey base but will still give you some PRIZM boost in contrast. Polarized Black Iridium does not have a contrast boost. Hope this helps!
I love Oakley and prism but I wish oakley did
more colors like back in the day. Like hunter greens and reds and yellow frames u don’t this any more it’s gray black and white frames which are nice not hating but more colorful frames and lens more swapping lens u have endless combinations for you’re sunglasses .
Which non polarized prism color should I take for flying glider? I want to see the clouds better and have a better contrast between clouds and the blue sky. Which one should I take?
Hi David! PRIZM Sapphire may be a great choice because it has a grey base for optimal sun protection but will still give you great contrast enhancement. You can learn more about it here: www.sportrx.com/blog/oakley-prizm-sapphire-lens-review/
@@sportrxeyewear thank you!
I gonna check it out!
Sorry what do you mean when you say you can get a prescription on it?
Thanks for the question! It means that there are many Prizm lens colors that Oakley makes available in prescription. It allows our prescription wearing friends to benefit from this impressive tint tech!
What would be the best lens for driving, deep water, and golfing.
Hi Ethan! The great thing about PRIZM lenses is that they are catered to specific environments. So for Deep Water, PRIZM Deep Water Polarized is definitely your best option. If you live in a sunny environment then a polarized lens is also recommended for driving. PRIZM Deep Water can work there too! But a polarized lens is not always the best for golf because polarization has been known to affect depth perception. PRIZM Golf is specifically designed for the golf course environment and will make the ball easier to track and greens easier to read. You can learn more about PRIZM Lens Technology here: www.sportrx.com/blog/oakley-prizm-prescription-lenses/ Please let us know if you have any additional questions!
I went with the everyday saphire polarized theyre great for fishing and driving but i still lose golf balls 😂😂😂
Is there any way I can buy a sunglasses frame without the lenses from Oakley?
I am also seriously considering buying a Prizm sunglasses especially the deep water.
can I also use the deep/shallow water it in everyday?
Hi there! We do not sell Oakley frames only. Yes, PRIZM Deep Water also works well for everyday use!
@@sportrxeyewear if I use deep water in shallow lake water, what would be the drawback? And vice a versa the Jade shallow with deep water, what then?

@@MegaAluchi if you have the money buy the changeable lens that fit your frames green shallow blue deep ,although I fly fish in sunny Scotland 🏴 and the deep water blue are brilliant tbh🙌🏻
What would be the best prism spectrum for hiking or backpacking?

I'm getting a pair!
Hi Christy! That's awesome!
How do I know if my Holbrook have prism? Been a couple years since I got them and don't remember if the worker told me if they are or not
Hi Devon! In most cases 'PRIZM' is etched into the lens. If you don't see anything on the lenses, try looking up the SKU/model number. This is on the inside of the temple arm. Should start with OO9102-...When you goggle it the lens and frame color combination should come up.
@@sportrxeyewear ohh. Would I feel it? Cause I think they are. I have a different pair that is polarized qnd prizm and I think i feel the etch qt the bottom. And these one I think i feel as well. Because I can't see it well
Thanks :) they are. I necer knew they were etched in. My very first pair aren't though

Hi SportRx, thanks for the very informative video. I am looking to get a pair of Oakley Prizm Polarized OO9449 Gibston sunglasses and wanted to know if I can wear them daily like walking, daily travel in public transport, and a day at the beach?
Appreciate your help.
Hello! You ceratainly can wear your Prizm Polarized lenses for everyday viewing as well as at the beach. You may find it difficult when looking at your phone and wearing them indoors can prove to be difficult due to the darker tint associated with polarized mirrored lenses but for general outdoors you'll find they provide amazing contrast and color enhancement.
@@sportrxeyewear thank you for the information. Much appreciated 👍👍👍
I need a good pair of glasses that I can drive my daily hour commute in and shallow water fish in. Should I get prism and polarized? What color lens would you recommend?

What's the name of the frame depicted above the Prizm colour palette?
Hi Al! We would love to help you out but are not exactly sure what you are asking. At what time in the video does the frame show up?
There is a color palette shown the entire length of the video on the left of Sunglass Rob, and there is what appears to be a drawing of a frame above that palette.
I think he means the prescription lens chart
@@ElementForLife78 Is that what that is? I thought it was meant to signify the different Prizm hues 😅...
Yes I think you're right but the picture of the frame would justbe the prescription frame with the different Prizm lenses underneath u can get for it
Please make a video about the Prizm Polarised colours, Like I mean how does the Prizm polarized black look on the frame, similarly for all Prizm Polarised colours.
Hi there! We have a PRIZM Polarized video here: www.sportrx.com/blog/oakley-prizm-polarized/
Nice explanation. Would you recommend Prizm Technology to a Pilot?
Hi Leonard! A non-polarized PRIZM lens is suitable for a pilot to use. We advise against getting a polarized lens if you are a pilot because it will make your instrument panel gauges more difficult to read!
Why is that a “loaded” question??
Hi Mike! What I meant by my comment is that there is a lot of assumptions or ideas about PRIZM Lens Technology that may or may not necessarily be true. Some of which you may have heard and others maybe not-but we hear it all at SportRx and we made this video to provide clarification. Hope that makes sense.
I hope Oakley always stick with the interchangeable lens I love Oakley best pairs even the fakes.
Can you get prizm photocromic lenses?
No, but maybe in the future!
Hey guys love the videos. I’m an Airline Pilot, what prism lens would be best for me?
Hi Kyle! Thanks for watching! I would say PRIZM Black or PRIZM Sapphire non-polarized would suit you well because these have a grey base(darker lens) but they still offer some PRIZM contrast enhancement. Also, we advise against a polarized lens because it makes gauges/screens difficult to read which is the last thing you want if you are looking at your instrument panel. I hope this helps!
SportRx yes I learned very quick polarized is a definite no. What about the Road prizm lenses? I like the rose tint but will I lose other contrast and colors?
Do all polarized lenses have the letter (P) after the word "prism" on the lens? I just got the OO9361-0957, they're supposed to be polarized but there is no (P). Thanks!
Hi there! Oakley has made some updates through the years so the P is not found on all polarized lenses. It looks like the product number indicates you should have PRIZM Deep Water polarized lenses.
@@sportrxeyewear yup, that's what it says on the box as well.
Does deep water mean it's waterproof in the sea?
You didn't talk about photochromic prizim lenses ....
Because there are none! Currently, there are no photochromic (transitions) lens options under Oakley's Prizm banner.
Is the frame durable
Oakley Prizm refers to the lens material, but generally speaking Oakley's frames are very durable thanks to their Omatter construction.
Does oakley have any glasses for computer users
