Maui Jim vs Costa Del Mar

[irokcj5]

I got the Costa Man-O-War in prescription amber. When I inquired on here last winter most everyone was speaking better of the Costa's than J.M's. So after insurance I still paid $500 out of pocket and I had to send them back 3 times to get the prescription right. The last time I accepted them because it was the best they had gotten, but still not great and don't like them. I can't wear them while I'm walking or driving, it makes me dizzy. In the kayak, and boat on the water, I can live with them. Don't know if the problem lies with Costa or the popular eye glass place on Ambassador Caffery near Academy.

I have prescription Costas and they are great. Clear and precise. Best visual quality I have ever had. Your problem might be with your optometrist.

My costs never hold up. The rubber under the ear piece and down the sides falls off. I fish 3-4 times a week and wear them daily but my next purchase will not include the rubber. Looking for a better brand.
