>They do, but as a previous post mentioned, a scuba mask is more like 
goggles, they fit closer to the eyes and they don't have the 
peripheral vision problem that a face shield has. I don't see how you 
could make one lens that is going to work right when two eyes are 
going to be looking through it.

My eyes have different Rx's as well.  The point I was trying to make is, depending on what your Rx is and what you want the lenses to do, a stick-on might work.  Obviously if you require your glasses due to a restriction on your license, or your eyesight is bad enough to require glasses to ride or drive, a stick-on wouldn't work. But if your eyesight is like mine and you can see distance fine but just need  a little help to read the gauges or a map in the map pocket without having to stop and dig out your prescription glasses, the stick-ons might work.   Like I said, I use the drugstore "reading glasses at 1.75 X magnification and they work fine in a pinch.  Neither of my eye's Rx is 1.75.  For ME, both eyes looking though a single lens JUST to see the gauges would work just fine.
I've been meaning to get some stickons for the Oakleys I wear riding.  When I do I'll check out the stick-ons for shield use.
