Oakley Clifden Coalesce Collection Prizm Bronze Lenses Matte Red Gold Colorshift Frame Sunglasses

Product Review (submitted on May 15, 2024):

First, I apologize for the length of this review but I just have to explain how incredible these glasses are and why. I bought the Holbrook Ruby Prizm Polarized and the very second I put them on my entire world changed. I have been totally and completely color blind my entire life and the only colors I have ever been able to identify are bright yellow and bright orange. All other dark colors are simply deeper or lighter shades of black or dark blue, or dark green or dark brown. They're all the same to me. Pastels are nothing more than lighter shades of the above colors. Traffic lights are the same color to me except that I know that green is a lighter shade than red. A few years ago my wife and I drove over 90 miles to get to a glasses shop which claimed to sell sunglasses that permitted color blind people like me to distinguish different colors from one another. They cost almost $1,000 and after trying then for 30 or so minutes they did absolutely nothing so we drove home.

All the above said the moment I put on these Oakley's. it was as though the entire world came to life. I still had no idea what colors I was seeing but I was seeing a huge variety of colors that I had never before seen in my life With my wife's help identifying what colors I was seeing I could see different colors rather than darker and lighter shades of blacks, browns, greens and browns. I could tell the differences between pastel colors even though I had no idea what colors they were as I had never seen them before. I am NOT saying these sunglasses in anyway cure color blindness. But I am stating emphatically that the Prizm lenses are no marketing ploy. I am stating that they bring a world of crystal clear colors in a wide spectrum. I love them so much I ordered another pair of custom made glasses from Oakley direct this very morning but this time with light grey Prizm, polarized lenses Are these glasses worth the price? TEN TIMES over and it's not possible for me to rate them high enough.
