CheersA neoprene-type strap,maybe?
Or glue them to your head.They won't slip down,you'll never lose them and you'll look cool 24hrs/day.You'll get used to people trying to buy drugs from you and make new and "interesting" friends.

CheersI have the same "condition". I suggest looking for sport shields/glasses with the soft rubber feet or pads. Some even claim they get stickier with sweat. I have a pair of Nike glasses I use with rubber pads. They don't slip down. Be careful when buying sunglasses for riding. My complaint about the limited number of sunglasses I've used on bike is that they aren't designed with enough brow coverage. What I mean to say is that when you're in the drops, looking up at the road, the glasses force you to look over the top of the rims or the rim obstructs the view. I plan to check this before I buy my next pair, but it's something to be aware of.

Hi
BBB makes a very reasonable range of cycling specific glasses
Some have metal nose supports, which can be bent to fit. They also come with additional lenses for different conditions
Check out their website at www.bbbparts.comRegards

I highly recommend the ADIDAS Gazelle Climacool.
Its made for running so its got a very grippy nose piece.
Has all the features of other sport sunnies: interchange lense, prescription clipin, fully adjustable....and very looks cool too.
