I got a pair of Man O War costa's last year with the green mirror 580 lens. I noticed that after wearing them for a few hours I'd start to get a headache that would eventually ruin my whole day. This happened each time I've worn them. I had polarized Oakley's before this and had no problems. Anyone else ever have a problem with this. I'm guessing the shape or glass lens is some how stressing out my eyes.I'd hate to sell them because I like how they block out all the light with the side sheilds but what good are they if I can't wear them.

They're probably too tight on your head / temples. I had the same problem with one pair that was tight but no problem w/ a pair that was looser.

You didn't get married about the same time you got those glasses did you? I noticed that's when my headaches really started...Ha ha

Are they heavy or heavier than your Oakleys? I wear contacts 99% of the time and can go all day with my Oakleys without any headaches or neck pain. After an hour or two with my prescription glasses I get headaches. The temples aren't tight, the nose pieces don't pinch, so all I conclude that it's a weight issue in my case.

I did add the neck strap to them and where the rubber things for it slide into the earpiece does pinch alittle. Maybe I'll take that off and wear them for everyday sunglasses for a week or two and see what happens.

Thanks

I don't get headaches but noticed that those lens hurt my eyes after awhile. Maybe you can change out the lens for a dark gray or vermillion.

In bright sun my gold glasses will give me a headache and I swap out to gray for a while and it eases up.
