I bought prescription glasses in 80% blue tint with Oleophobic blue mirror coating.

Blue tint is amazing, would highly recommend.
only downside, kinda dulls red. brake lights are sometimes hard to distinguish in direct sunlight.

I also have a pair of 50% yellow tint which are essentially those HD vision glasses.

great for night driving, poor weather conditions, and nice for starting at a computer monitor all day

>What sun glasses do you use while driving /o/?

I use prescription eyeglasses with the "Transitions" type automatic shading effect and UV protection. I don't need to wear sunglasses indoors as that not only looks dorky, but also flags someone as being a narcissistic asshole. Because my eyeglasses are also large (not those tiny stylish ones), when the transitions darken, it also continues to look good and stylish.

The other advantage about transitioning type sunglasses is that modern quality ones change pretty quickly. In 30 seconds my Nikon eyeglasses are already getting somewhat dark in strong sunlight (now), one minute pretty dark (about 75% of max dark), 2 minutes to almost as dark as they will ever be, and five minutes to as dark as they can be. Someone I know has glasses thu the HMO-approved eyewear center and they get their lenses from China (2 to 4 week turnaround) and they don't change anywhere as fast or get as dark as mine do.

Remember, Transitions is a brandname of polychromic variable-polarization lenses. Different brands may have different approaches. Nikon is my preferred choice of such lens. Many small eyewear chains are just resellers of chinese lenses, so be aware.
