I have heard from time-to-time that Sun Tiger sunglasses work well for

that Sun Tigers are local, and not particularly expensive.
Opinions either pro or con are welcomed.

I've been using Suntigers for at least 10 years now. For me they work
great. In spite of blue being black, color distorsion never got in my
way. It is amazing how well the brain compensates. I wear bifocals.
Suntiger just makes them to my prescription (I did send them a frame
and a drawing where to put the split). I also have nothing but
positive things to say about how they deal with customers.

Interesting, Henryk,



My experience was not so good. I bought a pair a couple of years ago.
Used them very little. Recently they broke, obviously from a defective
solder joint. I contacted them and they refused to do anything except
repair or replace them for the cost of new ones.



I am not satisfied.

When I got my first pair of glasses from Suntiger they had some
serious internal problems due to employee caused fraud. I did not hear
from them for a while after placing order, and could not find them
when I tried. Let's say I was not happy about that. At this point I do
not remember details, but after a while they found me. Explained what
happened and provided me with glasses. Since then I had no problems
what so ever either with quality or service.

Cheers,
Henryk
