ESS ICE 2.4, you can buy a blank prescription insert for them that your optician can glaze to your prescription
Personally, as a glasses wearer myself, I'd go for mesh and contact lenses. 30 pairs for £22 and I only wear them when I skirmish so one pack lasts a very long time

Boots and most other opticians will do prescription safety specs, we use boots at work.

i have the ess ice 2.4 ones
with the insert's done, which work really well they also will fit in to the ess turbo fan ones if i need full googles
. can work out expensive but i dont like mesh google's.

I use this option - it's less obtrusive with WW2 gear than some other options.

Re: prescription ballistic glasses/goggles
Addidas have some very good sports spectacles. Interchangable lenses, good build quality, snap-back-on parts if they get stood on, adjustable fit. And most will take prescription lenses.
Oakley Rx range is very good but pretty darn pricey.
If you're interested in going the Addidas route & your local optician can't help, drop me a pm

ESS ICE 2.4's nuff said. I wear them, and as said before if you wish to switch to ESS goggles they are interchangeable

No. You buy the insert separately, then take it to the optician. The insert comes with dummy lenses which the lens makers copy with your prescription.
