Rx Shooting Glasses for F Class

I've read a bunch of archived threads but still not clear on what to get.

I was able to get my optometrist to understand what I'm needing an he wrote a specific Rx for the lens. Now I'm looking for something on line where I can get lenses and frames that work for prone/scope shooting.

Decot Hy Wyd looks like they may be the ticket. Anyone recommend anything else that's better?

I've been very happy with my Decot Hy Wyds.
 
Randolph Engineering would be another good option. As an optician and prone shooter, I feel the RE Edge with the adjustable bridge is the best out there right now. Plus, they're made in the USA.

+1, just ordered a pair of clear non prescription lenses for mine yesterday.

Direct call to 1-800-528-1901 to Decot International for any questions. Mine are over 20 years old and the frames have held up fine for many rounds of coat and sling shooting. The adjustable bridge is helpful going from prone to offhand when the prescription lenses are in play.

I just ordered a pair of these. Randolph directs you to an optometrist that works specifically with folks in shooting sports who makes the lenses to your prescription.

I'll let you know how the work in 5-7 days
 
I suggest you get soft contact lenses. You can get one value for the scope eye and a different for distance vision if necessary. If you look through your spotting scope with your left eye you may want to experiment with no correction at all in that eye before you order prescription contacts. I shoot with one contact in my left (dominant) eye and no correction in the right eye that looks through the riflescope.
