I believe that thing you are talking about is the Halo sweatband. I'm

I have seen some sunglasses with a clip on foam strip that i guess
would run just above eyebrows (and would appear quite
inconspicuous), i have never tried one, but always intended to check
them out when i am up for a new pair of sunnies.

Can anyone offer an opinion on those.

I used to have a pair of Bolé sunglasses with one of those. Worked
quite well for me. After a couple of years the foam rotted away --
presumably you can buy replacement foam, but the glasses were out of
style by then anyways...
