I usually go with something like that for the durability factor. Polarized lenses are also a must.
One can certainly meet those conditions for well south of $150-200.

Broke down and got a new pair of oakleys - 100 bucks brand new off ebay - decided to sell the old pair

I am a cheapskate I guess. I bought 4 pairs of Jackson Nemesis Safty Glasses (many options to choose from)... a 3 pack without polarization runs less than 15. A polarized pair runs 15. When my dad's Akita puppy decided to chew one pair up I didnt care. Close enough to the Oakley style for me.

I usually use a wrap around from Walmart I think those are 20 dollars. The problem with them is the side frame rail is subject to breaking in time. If they used a better material or even a composite one for a few more dollars it will never break the way these do. (I wear glasses.. the lenses on them have a darkening feature when going up against bright snow reflection in winter or really hot summer days that is very bright.)
There is a set of shooting glasses with a prescription set of lenses inside however the vision on those is optimized for the front sight and not very precise for driving etc.
Night time I use a cheap 7 dollar wrap around to stop the excessive blue light from hurting the vision from some of the cars and trucks that use them. Sometimes when it's really bright at night from light pollution etc (Gas stations are really bad at this...) I'll wear the sunglasses.
I live far enough out into the country where when it's night time it's dark. -

Picked up one of these for 250+ and they have been good for flatbed. They are polarised and scratch resistant. I've been wiping the sweat off them with my t-shirt in dusty conditions for 5 years now and there isn't a scratch I can notice while wearing them. -
