Best prescription swimming goggles for DC6

5 replies

DC (just turned six) has recently started swimming lessons. They are fairly shortsighted (-4 and -3 with some astigmatism) and so I think they could really do with some prescription goggles.

Which ones/where from do people recommend?

Maybe ask your optician as they often sell them

your local optician is probably the best bet. Ours had them starting at £25

They should to be from a registered optician as DC is under 16. You can get a rough prescription (not corrected for astigmatism) for about £25, if you want an exact prescription it's more like £65. That's from specsavers. The goggles are gator made by hilco.
