Default Rx Glasses and Goggles

Does anyone have a recommendation for goggles to fit over Rx glasses? Most of the goggles I've seen (no pun) look like they would last about one year. I'd like something better. Thanks.

I got a pair of Guard Dogs online a few years back. Keep them on the bike just in case of rain, hail, and in Az. dust storms. There are not alot of choices for those of us with glasses. The other option would be prescription goggles and i just dont wear mine enough to justify them. The Guard Dogs fit well and serve the purpose.

I'm thinking about RX goggles. Any recommendations for a good supplier?

Since I fog every other goggles I've tried (...hot blooded, check it and see...), I switched to Oakley M-Frames with an Rx adapter from Sved optics.

I was in the same delimna.. Best money I ever spent.. Lasik rocks! 20/15 vision now.
I would leave the glasses at home and just wear the goggles/shades.. After getting the eyes fixed, I was blowing away my riding buddies because I could see the road soooooo much better.

Not necessarily the cheapest but they are reliable...I have dealt with them for several years now and never had any problems.

Bought a set of BigBens 2 wks ago for $ 20 for nite riding....seem well made and if they last a yr, it was more than worth it.

Getting a pair of Polycarbonate Polarized prescription glasses is worth every penny you spend.

SportRx
Panoptx

I got a pair for decent wrap frames for Action OpticsLenses done by C-Sports in St. Louis.

Check out Wal-Mart - they had windless prescriptions starting at $129.
