Dear mtnwuman,

Well that was interesting!  It would seem Bausch and Lomb is getting
out of the sunglasses business, preferring optics such as binoculars
instead. Ray-Ban (Bausch and Lomb) is the most readily available, but
the discontinued "I's" brand by Bausch and Lomb is the "best buy" as
far as price goes.

Goldeneyes Yahoo Store:
1. I's by Bausch and Lomb (all US$14.95 + postage, located in
Georgia):

Goldeneyes Yahoo Store:
2. Ray Ban by Bausch and Lomb (least cost US$50 + postage, located in
Georgia):
http://shop.store.yahoo.com/goldeneyes/rayban.html

Lens Expressions (least cost US$63, free shipping, probably located in
Canada):
3. Ray Ban:

Hi I just recently had a BIG problem with Luxottica, the new owners of
the Ray-Ban trade mark. I've worn Bans for 30+ years and their service
WAS second to none.
 Bausch & Lombe have got out of the cosmetic eyewear business and sold
the name to the above shower. Their service is dire, their employees
disinterested,
a very much take it or leave it attitude.
 I wear prescription sunglasses now and have gone over to Zeiss!!
