I'm planning a 3-week trip to Italy and Greece this summer, and I'm looking for recommendations on prescription sunglasses. I typically wear regular glasses, but I know I'll need good sun protection for all the outdoor sightseeing.
My current thoughts:
Get a pair of prescription sunglasses made
Use clip-on sunglasses over my regular glasses
Try photochromic lenses that darken in sunlight
Has anyone had experience with these options while traveling? I'm concerned about durability, convenience, and how well they protect from bright Mediterranean sun.
Also, any suggestions on where to get them? Should I order online or go to a local optician?
I'd love to hear about your experiences and any tips you might have. Thanks in advance for your help
