I've got an ancient pair of yellow CR39 lensed Lehmans, who is the originator of the design, back in the 80s when he ran adds in gun magazines.
I don't think he's even in business any more 'cause his original patent expired... but there are several makers that carry on, and may have even improved the design. Decot as Casimer listed, L+M lenses and a few others.
Bud Decot has been around for a looooong time.

You'll find them quite often on benchrest, hi-power and shotgun competitions. You used to see them a lot in combat handgun until Oakley started sponsoring big time shooters... but I think even people like Rob Latham are back to using Decot Hy-Wyds.

If you like Oakley and WileyX, they both make a sort of high fit shooting glass called, respectively, the Radar XL and Saber.

Merry Christmas!
