I am a short-sighted glasses wearer with a fairly strong prescription (+7.00). Last year, for our first ski trip in a couple of decades, I wore by regular glasses (with transitions lenses) under a cheap pair of goggles. I managed ok, but got steamed up a few times and really struggled when sitting in mountain cafes in strong sunshine, as my transitions lens and small frames weren't adequate as sunglasses in such strong sunlight.
For this year's trip I am looking for a much better solution. I would prefer sunglasses that are suitable to ski in, for non snowy days. Am also considering a prescription insert that can go in regular googles. Has anyone used a universal prescription insert? What are they like? Is steaming up still a problem?
Would also love to hear if anyone has found close fitting, wraparound style sunglasses that are suitable for a higher (+5 and above) prescription, since the advisor at Vision Express told me they weren't an option for some one with my prescription.
Tell me I have options beyond getting contact lenses (which is pretty much what vision express told me I have to do).
