What's this?

I got them from 2 different places when I lived in Connecticut. They were

prescription glasses places though, not just going to Sunglass Hut. One was a local one location only shop. The other was a chain, I think Lenscrafters actually. I believe you just have to search for prescription shops that carry Maui Jim.

It might be possible to get them made direct from Maui Jim online, but different states have different rules. For CT, you weren't allowed to get a prescription filled online, and the DR doing the prescribing was prohibited from giving you the (I forget the technical term) distance between your pupils, or something like that, which would be needed to place an online order. If your state has different rules, you can probably get a prescription and go right to Maui Jim.

Though then I'm not sure how insurance would work. Ordering locally had them taking care of it for me.
