I use the same Safety glasses - without the mirror finish - they are wrap around, tinted and cost under $10.00.

If you loose them - are you going to cry?

Besides... they work.

Bye the way - I have a pair of polarized prescription sunglasses, about twice the price of Zurichs.

The Uxex Safety Glasses can be found at most hardware stores, depending on the type of glasses that you wear - they should fit over top.

Uvex glasses.
I got mine at an electrical supplier a few years ago for $8.00. They are the only pair of sunglasses I have never broken.
