    Default Re: goggles and masks...

    I prefer masks over goggles; I have slanty eyes ( very asian looking almond shaped) & most goggles just don't fit correctly ; or rather the cheepo ones don't, so I use cheepo masks.

    If you don't mind spending some cash on goggles or masks, Talk to your eye wear professionals.
    Prescription masks & goggles are available... I don't know if many health insurance compnaies would cover this prescription but it is worth investigating.
    I had a fabulous pair of prescription goggles many years ago when I was on the swim team.. They were awesome! eventually I changed prescriptions though & was no longer on a swim team so I didn't bother buying new ones; but they were great!

    Tip for anti-fogging
    SPIT...
    most divers know this trick;
    simply spit into your mask or goggles.
    I don't know why this works ( perhaps chemgeek could explain the scientific principle behind it), but it does work really well...
