Do the Wal-Mart safety glasses fit over prescription glasses and how does
expected cu help you decide which color to use when flying?

On blue days I wear the dark lenses ... the yellow when I expect to be
under widespread cu or over development ... the medium lenses offer
some more flexibility.

They are probably too small to go over prescription glasses ... plus
they wrap around the sides. Here is a photo:

I also stopped by a different Wal-Mart today ... and they did not seem
to carry the item, so I expect they are not available in all stores
for some reason. They are called SafetyVu Safety Glasses.

Here is a link to the manufacturer ...
