AO Cobalt Lens

admin

Went to clean my cobalt AO lens today and it separated the gold from the tinted lens.  I've had it for 15 years.  I have never used a lens so comfortable or easy on my eyes.  I hear they stop making them many years ago.  Is there anything that comes close to these lens on the market today?
