Does anyone use these? If so, what kind? Just found out I have a stigmatism, and contacts are not an option. Looking for a "wrap around" style where my eyelashes don't hit the lens, with either 1. interchangeable (clear & dark) prescription lenses, 2. clear prescription lenses that you can attach sunglass lenses to, or 3. prescription transition lenses (that automatically change from clear to dark). What works best? Do they even make any of these 3 kinds? Never had glasses before.
