Have you ever tried Persimmon Prizm? I would like to know if the persimmon or the iced are better for days with minimal visibility or flat light…

Didn’t fit as well as the RVX or PXV for me nor was the peripheral as good. They felt like they sat pretty far off my face and were more medium-ish than the other two. Lens change is quick, though.

No I haven't. These are my second pair Oakleys in 30 years. If I had to choose one lens for everything, Iced(horrible name) is the one for me. Like the light pink ones.
I prefer the Clear Prizm for days with minimal visibility or flat light but Iced is close second.

I’m deciding between a Line Miner Pro with Sapphire and Iced or just a Perceive Cloudy Pink replacement lens for my M3s. From what I’m reading here, there’s not much of a difference in quality and visibility. (Flat light or snowing) Buying the Cloudy Pink is cheaper than a full set of Line Miner Pro… Fawcett uses the Anon…
But I’ve read that Anon enhances colors to increase contrast and Oakley eliminates light waves and only enhances the ones that cause contrast… I don’t know…

Deporvillage still have some good discounts on Line Miner Pro if you are in EU.

Thank you very much!! @Blessed420 , @unsuspected My friend who went with me on the last trip took the last LMpro L with interesting lenses from deporvillage.. 🤷🏻‍♂️ and the offer from varuste is great but @jsil maybe I'm closer to the perceive. I already have the m3 with mfi mask… and I like it…

But I really wanted to take advantage of the intention to buy to discuss the technology of the lenses and see if those of you who have had different brands like Anon, Oakley, Smith… really notice that some really work better than others or everything is similar. I have first generation anon lenses from m3 and in front of my oakley lenses (airframe) it’s all the same. It looks the same. But time has passed and prizm and perceive have appeared. When there is sun, anything goes but when things are ugly, which is precisely when we want to slide in the most complicated/interesting areas, that is when the reality of performance and contrast appears.
