Good Sunglasses in Tokyo or Kyoto.
 
Somehow, I left behind my decent sunglasses in LAX.

Anyway, I thought I could survive without, but it's been three days and I can't continue like this. Cheap drugstore ones are not doing the trick. Does anyone have any suggestions for a place to get good sunglasses in Tokyo or Kyoto? Or even Hakone?

Budget is 10,000-30,000 yen. I prefer lightweight sports sunglasses but I also prefer not ugly, and right now I'm probably desperate enough to spend money on fashion ones as long as they are effective.

Thanks!

I'd think any of the nice department stores will have them. In Kyoto try Daimaru or Takashimaya

We picked up something we needed at Takashimaya in Tokyo.

Oops - that was Takashimaya in Kyoto, not Tokyo!

The department stores generally only carry fashion sunglasses (heavier sunglasses can trigger my migraines) but I found an Oakley store, so it worked out. Thanks!
