Perfect for conversion to Magnet Clip ons
When I got my last pair of glasses the optician offered polarized Clip ons that attach with magnets. They were $150 a piece and I had money back then and bought a black one and a yellow one for night driving.These were so great and easy that I can not live without them.Fast forward to now…. I needed new glasses, the magnet option was not offered and I do not want to spend the money to buy new ones.So I DIYed them for me.I needed to drill holes into my expensive glasses and I had no idea if this would work without destroying them so I used my old glasses to test the drilling.Here is what you need:- Rotary tool like a Dremel. I had this and it worked great: TACKLIFE Cordless Rotary Tool - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075N68KRZIt had all the bits I needed to drill and its easier to use than a huge dremel.- LUFF Polarized Clip on Sunglasses in brown and yellow. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07GLC9LC8I picked those because the clip spring can be easily removed so only the bridge is left.- Magnets. Small thin ones. I used 4mm x 1mm round magnets. You can find those on Amazon too.- And last (Optional) UV glue. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XJ28LZPTo seal the holes and cover the magnets. Plus if you buy just the glue you need a UV lamp to set the glue or you buy a kit with a UV LED like Bondic. This stuff is so useful for all kinds of things.Step 1:You remove the spring and the parts that press the clip on to your glasses. I just used some pliers. Only the bridge will be left.Step 2:You hold the Clip ons onto your glasses and see if they are bigger and mark the overhanging parts with a sharpie. Then you trim/sand away all those parts. The rotary tool has the right attachment for that. You do not have to but it made them more custom. Maybe buy 2 pairs and practice on one first. Now you have a customized pair of Clip ons that fit your glasses perfectly.Step 3:Mark (carefully) the position you want the magnets to be. As close to the left and right edge as possible but not too close that you can break the lens. That is the frightening part. You use the rotary tool to drill a very small hole and then use that hole and the cone shaped bit to make it bigger. Do this very slowly. You do not want to melt the lens or have it get too hot. Just do it in steps and remove all the debris every time you stop. Try if the magnet fits and if not then continue. But DO NOT drill bigger than the magnet. So go slowly until the magnet fits and you can press it into the hole and it is stuck. No glue needed.Step 4:Seal the back of the glasses with the UV glue. Fill the hole up and harden it. This way no dirt can catch in there and it makes it a little nicer. But you do not have to.**That was the delicate part. If this goes wrong you have ruined (maybe) an expensive pair of glasses so think twice before you do this and practice on an old pair or buy a cheap pair or used pair to practice and see how this works.**Step 5:Do the same with your Clip ons. If you ruin those, you just buy another pair. Not expensive and try again. Make sure to insert the magnets so that they attract each other. But if not, pop them out and turn them around. No big deal.Step 6:Magnets are brittle. I have noticed that after some use they flake off and you will get dark grey magnet dust around your magnets and they can even break. You click magnet to magnet over and over again. To prevent that I coat the Clip on inserted magnets with the UV glue. At least the parts that touch each other.Coat ONLY the magnet in the Clip on not the magnet in the glasses. If you coat both, you will loose too much strength of the magnets, plus it looks better without the glue on your glasses. It works great and gives a soft buffer. Plus. I have noticed you can use this to color the outside part of the magnet. A silver disk sticks out visually on black Clip ons. So I painted them with a sharpie (yellow for yellow and black for brown and black Clip ons) and put a drop of UV glue on top. It looks shiny and full black after you do that. Then Harden the glue.Done. I have done this 5 times by now. I have 2 pairs of progressive glasses in two very different shapes and created a black and orange clip on for the big glasses and brown, black and yellow for the smaller ones.I put magnets on my sun visor in my car. Metal would work too - Just less strong. So now the Clip ons are attached to the visor when I do not use them and with one move they go from the visor to my glasses while I drive.If the magnets ever break… No problem. Since they are hopefully not glued in (and you were careful while you drilled so you did not have to use glue to keep them in there) you can just pop them out and put new ones in.The professional Clip ons: The magnets are smaller and are inserted on the front and do not go all the way through. The lenses are better quality and really custom to your glasses. You have to send in your glasses for them to do this. So yes... if you have the money do that, but for $150 (4 years ago) a piece... My solution is cheaper with the same function. $15 Clip ons, $8 magnets, The rotary tool I had but it was $19 and the glue I had too but it was $10 for (no name refill or $22 for the Bondic kit. The original Bondic lasted me for several yearsBest part is you can layer them. You know the time of the day when the sun is so low - below your visor - and you are driving towards the sun and can not see a thing. If you have two of those Clip ons. Like a black and brown one. They stick to each other. I put one on top of the other. The magnets work that way. I can see and they are easily removed while driving once the sun is below the horizon.

Best Lightweight Clip-ons for Night Driving
Work great for night driving. Lightweight and same quality you’d expect. They also come with a storage case which was appreciated.

Helpful
Helpful at night but not as dramatic as the seller would have you believe. I keep them in my car, but don't use them much except in winter when it gets dark early. I don't do much night driving.

Meh....
I purchased these for my elderly Dad. They did not fit over his prescription glasses that he drives with. They were not big enough to cover his lenses. I was able to get them on by putting the forks between the two bridge pieces on his glasses and this dropped the lenses down covering more....but his old fingers could not do the same. I was going to return them and pick something else for him, but he wanted to keep them and try on a different set of frames. I would say pay attention to fit before purchasing, and keep in mind some dexterity is needed to accomplish clipping them on, and not always easy for older people.

LED lights in cars. No more
Ok. Whoever thought LEDs for headlights was a good idea. Was wrong. I could not drive once the headlights came on. But these snap on my regular glasses with ease. Made the drive safer I could now drive without be blindedAnyone having a problem with the headlights should be these.

The Yellow lenses are NOT polarized.
What I expected based on description: yellow, polarized, anti-reflective clip-ons.What I received: unpolarized, reflective clip-ons.I have previously used four polarized lenses. All removed the same glare from windshields, windows, and lake water. One black, two brown, and one yellow.These clip-ons do not remove any glare. There is no change in the glare between my prescriptions and adding these yellows. I can quite literally hold my other polarized clip-ons in front of these and see the glare instantly disappear............The images provided by the seller where the fish image is changed when viewing through the lense is a total slight of hand. Remember when theatres had red/blue glasses for viewing 3-D films? Same concept here. The lense draws out or masks certain colors...........but this is not due to any sort of polarization.The yellows should be considered as a standard plastic yellow lense. It works great for enhancing the visual spectrum during low light conditions. These are simply NOT daytime, anti-reflective, polarized clip-ons.

Only slight polarizing effect
Wear prescription lenses and needed a pair of light yellow polarized glasses for low-light fishing. The few places that could make them wanted $5-700, so I thought I'd give these yellow lenses a try.They almost completely cover my glasses and clip on securely, so they passed the 1st test. They come with a little card that you can use to show the polarizing effect. Without them you see half a picture, a black line drawing, and with them the other half shows, with yellow lines. Anyway, used them this spring, but could only notice a slight effect in use. Then one day was going through a drawer of old sunglasses and decided to use that little card to see which ones were polarizing. MAJOR difference. With regular, yellow (non-prescription) polarized lenses I saw one, continuous dark-lined figure. With the clip-ons half dark, half yellow/very light brown. So while these may be better than nothing, the polarizing effect is modest, at best.
