I am looking for a store that sells prescription sunglasses dyed
various colors.

What I mean by that is mirrored sunglasses with lenses tinted the
colors of the rainbow that I could have made to order with my own
prescription (I am nearsighted).

There are many glasses manufactures that offer tinted mirrored
glasses, but they seem to offer colors I'm not interested in.  I want
to find a place where I could get all of the following colors:

red mirrored glasses
orange mirroed glasses
yellow mirrored glasses
green mirrored glasses
blue mirrored glasses
purple mirrored glasses

Very light red or very dark red is not red.  Pink is not red.  Etc.

An acceptable answer would provide a link to a website or the phone
number of a US store that sells that either sells prescription glasses
in the colors I specified or allows you to mail in existing glasses
and have them dyed with those colors.

If more than one company exists that does this, so much the better.  A
list of them would be great.  But one place that works is all I really
need.

Thanks!

Thank you for your understanding.

If you're using your own lenses, theses firms won't be able to offer a
warranty.  I advise you to discuss details such as material
[restrictions], colors, matching, mirroring, warranty, scratching
visibility [with existing lenses] etc. with them directly.

My personal opinion is that the first place is probably the best
choice.  For all these places, it is best to send a sample color that
you're looking to match.  I have confirmed with all 3 places their
ability to do all of the colors you have listed.

(1) Multi Facets
    http://www.multifacets.com
    $20 + $30 for mirroring
    2-3 days turn-around time.

(2) Welcoming Neighbor
    http://www.welcomingneighbor.com/woodlands/
    $20 + $50 for mirroring
    1-2 weeks for mirror [they send it out for mirroring]

(3) Eye Health Northwest
    http://www.ehnpc.com/contact.html
    $30 + $42 for [solid] mirroring
    1-2 weeks for mirror [they sound it out for mirroring]
    503-656-4112 [Oregon City Location does tinting]

Search Strategy:
"custom tinting" glasses
"custom tinting" lenses colors
