Glasses for Golf

Hi All,

I reckon a pair of glasses (that I can wear with contacts or clip-ons over my normal glasses) that improve contrast would help se see the ball in flight a lot better.
I have had a look around some of the Sports shops in Athlone and while all have heard of such none have any.
Also tried a search on the web, but again no joy.
So hoping someone would know of either a shop or website that would carry such an item.
Many thanks

how about prescription glasses with polarised lenses... eliminates horizonatal glare, ideal for outdoor pursuits...
