I just phoned the optician where I last went for glasses and asked
about some 'safety spectacles' made up to the same prescription as my
current (reading) glasses for use when D-I-Y'ing.

They didn't have much idea what I was on about really! It seems strange
to me in our safety conscious society that something like this is hard
to find.

The demand is very limited, given that most people are quite happy with
safety glasses that fit over their prescription glasses. Bolle stopped
making them a year or two ago and I don't know any other maker who does
prescription safety glasses.
