I recommend Phillips Safety. They supply many of the lampworking suppliers.

Over the years I've had many prescription lenses with filters, but it got too costly every time my script changes. So, I got some of their clip-ons that I fit onto my regular prescription glasses. I prefer the type that clip around the lens as opposed to the ones that clip at the top of the lens, but that's up to you. I find the ones with the top clip a bit heavier, but they have the advantage of being able to flip them up. I have multiple clip-ons for different lampworking glass (soft or boro).

If you go this route, you can get to the exact measurements of the clip-ons at a company called Opsales. Click on the style, then on the page for that style, click the link for "Print true size chart."

If you're not in a hurry, Phillips often has sales around holidays. They post that info on their FB page.
