Prescription swimming goggles

[Ilikeafternoonnaps]

I would really like to start swimming but am very short sighted. Can anyone recommend me somewhere good to buy prescription googles please?

[ReverseTheTrend]

i got mine from specsavers, they are not my exact prescription but close enough, and cost less than twenty quid

[Discounted]

Mine are from Asda and much the same as Reverse's

[MsDragons]

Mine are from Specsavers too. They work for me.

[Takver]

I got mine online from these people.

[Ilikeafternoonnaps]

I didn't even think of the opticians silly me! I'm not sure I'll be able to chose my prescription off the shelf though due to severe astigmatism

[MsDragons]

They have to order them, it took about a week I think to get them.

[WhoKnowsWhereTheTimeGoes]

I got mine online from Butterflies Healthcare, -10 in each eye but not much astigmatism, they don't give perfect correction (I really need -11 in one eye) but an awful lot better than nothing. A lot of places only go down to -6 or so.

[BikeRunSki]

I've got these. Awesome, arrived within a couple of days.

Are they comfy too? Have not tried goggles since I was a child and hated them then. Last time I tried to swim though I realised my sight was just too bad though and I would need some prescription goggles

[Piffpaffpoff]

Mine are from Asda opticians. They were about £17. V comfy.

Omg, who knew? I never knew you could get prescription goggles!! I've been faffing with my lenses all this time!

[cuphat]

I have terrible eyes, -10 with astigmatism and I got some through a seller on amazon which were cheap (less than £20) and are brilliant!

[Ilikeafternoonnaps]

Oh great thanks all, so many places to try. I might start with specsavers as last glasses were from there and I don't know my actual prescription!

[reddaisy]

Great thread, OP! I always use my contact lenses because I assumed prescription goggles would be v expensive but I can stretch to £20 I reckon.
