Speak with your eye doctor about prescription lenses in sunglasses and see what he recommends. He can also write your script down and you can take it in or send a picture of it to most manufacturers online. Basically any famous brand you can think of (Oakley, Ray Ban, Costa Del Mar, Maui Jim...) makes their exact quality lenses in prescription variants (some caveats, they may do .5 diopters instead of .25, they may only offer matches in strength (one strength for both eyes instead of two different ones), or a few other little unusual things, but all in all, they should be much, much better than nothing). Buy a pair that are snug and made to be worn while moving around and sweaty. If you get a lens shading that's supposed to help, it's a small bonus. They're usually roughly on par with the cost of high-end non-prescription sunglasses (you'll be pretty hard pressed to find cheap ones, though, sadly).
