I'm trying to buy a new pair of costas, can't find amber lensed 580P or G glasses @ all. All I can find are the Copper lenses. Have amber lenses been discontinued, I sure hope not. I'm looking for some blackfins

Yes, Amber is no longer at Costa.

I would like to know how the copper lenses compare to the ambers? Just sent my blackfins off for repair which I received the same thing, that they discontinued the ambers.

Bought my first pair of copper/green mirror about 5 months ago. I had always used amber before. There is a little difference and after wearing them they are really good. A little darker. I also have Blackfin frames. No noticeable difference now. What I really dislike is the spot bifocals they use now, I prefer the old style lined bifocal. It has taken me awhile to adjust to the spot bifocal.

Still lots of ambers available on Ebay, and very reasonable.
