Re: [Glimmer 'Colored Filter Glasses'] Light Seasonal Change

RE: locating wraparound sunglasses
Do you have stores just dedicated to sunglasses there at your big malls?
Those kinds of stores seem to have some wraparounds for about $40 U.S.
dollars here.
Opthalmologists offices also have some for persons who've had catarac
surgery but they were all too big for my petite face.

> Hi,

here in Alberta, Canada. The tint of our Irlen lenses would be changed by
combining it with a sunglass tint. How does that affect you? I love my
Irlen tint, and would not like to mess with that. I will check into this,
thanks.
