I wear readers for reading but really dont want to wear glasses full time as I dont really have a hard time seeing the day to day things. I'm having a harder and harder time tracking the golf ball and because of this, I dont play nearly as often as I'd like. Also, I'm noticing that I have virtually NO feedback and my game is suffering.

Anyone use prescription sunglasses to play? Any discount brands out there?

I used to have the same problem, I’d lose it in the clouds religiously. Then switched to a neon ball. Fixed immediately

I was going to suggest switching to a bright yellow ball. It definitely helps.

Yuh... I made that switch a few years ago and it did help for a bit. I'm just getting older

I have a pair of wire framed prescription Oakley's in a light violet color tint. They are progressive lenses and I can follow the ball much better with them than with my regular prescription lenses with the transition lenses.

I went to the optic yellow balls, they are much easier for me to track.
