    These people http://prescriptiondivemasks.com/ worked well, no problems, actually faster than they said they would be. I'm happy with the product and service, no complaints

    If you have any questions, call them, they are very helpful

    FWIW, I did several rounds with the stick on and the glue in prescription lenses. Eventually there would be build up and algae growth between the mask and the lens.

    I finally got a SeaVision mask and it has been working great for years now. Especially since I learned how to properly defog my mask after 30 years of diving Apparently my spit ain't worth $h1+

    You have to send them the mask and they glue in the inserts. I have no idea what type of glue is used.

    In cataract surgery, the cataracts (cloudy natural lenses) are removed and replaced with synthetic intraocular lenses (IOLs).

    I would only caution that over time the bond will break down and you will see algae get between the added lens and the face mask glass. It's happened to me with several different masks.

    These are not the only folks, but they may be worth checking out…

    I have given up on getting the numbers on my gauges in focus. I just know which direction I want the needle to be pointing.

    Those are the ones you glued in right? I don't think these will break down, I don't know what kind of glue is used, but believe even acetone won't affect it.
