Goggles For Those With Glasses

Does anyone know of any goggles that work well with a person wearing eyeglasses? I am on a limited budget, so I can't go out and buy prescription goggles.

Any help is welcome!

JT Paintball goggles, ESS non-NVG goggles, (you have to cut some foam for the frames though) and Arena Flakjaks have worked for me so far.

I've been wearing a pair of JT paintball goggles I got at Canadian Tire since I started playing and they've worked fine for me.

You can also wear Bolle T800 over a pair of low profile glasses.

Another option if you can do it is to wear contacts.

Glasses

I have a pair of Bolle T800 .. they have a cut out int he rubber on the side to accomodate the arms of glasses.

As do the ESS tactical thermals I have.

Now my glasses are pretty small.. narrow and fit close to my face ( I teach martial arts .. and have pretty poor vision).. so I need glasses that are low profile. So depending on your glasses you may have less success with the goggles mentioned above

I wear ESS LandOps goggles (with home made gogglefan) over my glasses without any problems. My T800's won't fit over them, but I've got a couple of Rx inserts coming from Lightfighter, that should only take a year or so to get. ESS makes Rx inserts for their goggles, I've seen them once, but I'm kicking my ass for not picking them up. Haven't seen them since. I also have a set of JT paintball goggles I rent out and they fit over my glasses just fine.

Thanks for the help! I'm still not sure which ones to go for, but now I know where to go.

JT Spectras (Paintball Goggles) will work.
