I have a set and they are excellent.   Made of polycarbonate. It is very difficult to pick other than tapping them and then you may be able to tell.  Came from SLS.

I also have a set from SLS and the look and fit is excellent.

Same here, put the polycarbonate lenses on and stored the glass lenses in a safe place.
The pc lenses have another advantage, the edges were the clips go on are much stronger then the ones on the glass lenses.
Haven't broken one yet!  :)

Hans,

out of curiosity, what I can only see there under the reference quoted by you is a part made of glass, which is stated on the page. Is there anything else?
