For those with prescription eyewear, ESS has the solution. After lenses have been corrected by an optometrist and fit into the CDIRx Inserts, these low-profile, Rx integrations slide into the CDI™ like any other replacment lens.  One set contains two lens inserts.  CDI™ sunglass sold separately. 

 

Important safety note for CDI™ sunglass users operating in proximity to fragmentation hazards:

ESS strongly recommends the use of high-impact polycarbonate prescription lenses to optimize impact resistance in the CDI™ sunglass. Due to the variability of prescription lens shapes, materials, and thicknesses, it is impracticable to determine if the sunglass system is compliant with the ANSI Z87.1 and MIL-PRF-31013 spectacle impact standards when prescription lenses are installed.  High-impact polycarbonate prescription lens material will maximize the impact resistance of the system well beyond that offered by CR-39 resin or other common materials used in prescription lens manufacturing.

“Dear ESS,
My name is SSgt Solomon, I’m a Marine from 29 Palms, California. I was in Iraq when I purchased the ESS CDI sunglasses. The glasses saved my eyesight.
We were going down one of the main highways from Ramadi to Fallujah when an IED blew up next to my LAV25. I was engulfed in flames. I received shrapnel to the arms and face. The CDI smoke gray lenses have burnt spots where either hot metal or tar hit. I wish I had pictures; we had no time--we got into a firefight just after I was hit by the IED.
Thank you for making a good product, the glasses protected my baby blues.”
