swimming goggles

[KathG]

Anyone had problems with allergic shiners after using goggles -any recommendations for hypoallergenc ones? It looks as if DD is allergic to hers
Thanks...

allergic shiners look like bruises, this wouldn't be an allergic reaction to the goggles, that would come out as a rash.
If her eyes are looking bruised after using them, it sounds like they are too tight

Sorry, I can't help, I have never heard of allergic shiners.
The only thing I can say (which in reality sounds weird) is buy the best pair you can afford as the cheap and chearful ones do not last. DD has had a pair of Speedo's for three years and they are still like brand new, where as the cheap and cheerful ones last her a couple of months max.

These look great

I don't think it is because they are too tight - as there are no characteristic marks (we've done that too)- just that she looks like she does after she has had cow's milk an hour or so later...
