Goggle Question

Has anyone else experienced blurred vision after a work out that can be tied directly to goggles? After the MD checked me out for symtpoms of a stroke, the Opth. couldn't find anything unusal with my vision. So the theory at the moment is that my goggles are somehow causing the blurrieness. Any ideas?

    Maybe your goggles are too tight against your eyes or eyelids? I've got a few (older) pairs where they leave marks around my eyes but I've gotten rid of them at the suggestion of the plastic surgeon--they were breaking down the bone structure/fat pads around the eyes. I've also got a few pairs that if I put them on too tight and press them into my face too much--my eyelids/lashes bump the lens. Doesn't allow the lids to close correctly or comfortably. I do wear the baracudas==both styles of the 300. One has a flatter profile than the other. The flatter profile is the one that bumps my eyelashes and makes it harder to open and close eyes. The other 300 fits better--the lens are somewhat raised with a beveled edge to them. They are costly (and most swim shops won't carry them--people don't lose or replace them often enough) and need to be ordered thru catalogs or internet services.
