safety goggles over sunglasses I bought some marked down ski goggles at Academy last month. They have an orange tint to them and fit over my Costa Hammerheads just fine but the tint on them allows me to take glasses off as it cuts the glare out.

I found a pair of go over the glasses polarized that are great wind shields the top and sides extend to forehead and temples.Cost about $35,and cured the wind dryness and cold tearing up eyes problems.

If you are willing to spend some $$$$ then get a pair of Costas with your prescription glass lenses. You could get a lens color thats good in both low and bright light, and they have plenty of frame styles to choose from. I have the Permits and have no problems with my eyes drying out.

My wife uses motorcycle glasses when we ride and she likes them.
You may want to also have a dry eye test by your eye doctor. I have Sogrens Syndrome and need to take restasis for my dry eye.

I saw at Cabelas they sell a deal that looks like a paintball mask that's painted up kinda cool for keeping wind out of yer face while haulin' [censored] across the water. They call them fish headz. Here's the website. www.savephace.com

I am a fan of Wiley-X they saved my eyes in Iraq from an IED explosion. Unfortunately I lost some function in my ability to close and moisten my eye. They have glasses that you can add foam to the frame to prevent the air from drying your eye out. Also can do prescriptions.

No matter how good or bad you have it, wake up each day thankful for your life. Someone somewhere else is desperately fighting for theirs.
