I searched the forum, but didn't find a thread on this topic. Anyone out there have goggles with corrective lenses? Where did you get them? Were they resonably priced. I just got back from the eye doctor and was told I could get a pair of Speedo Sprints for $190! I can get the non-corrective Sprints for $6 locally. Thanks.

If you have deep eye sockets, it's really difficult to keep any brand of regular style googles from leaking and/or hurting like hell. The larger "Seal Mask" type that cover the entire eye area, though they don't look very sexy, are geat if you have deep-set eyes or a large nose or anything else that make wearing smaller goggles torture.
As a bonus, peripheral vision is excellent with this type of goggle. They probably would not be suitable for the truly competitive swimmer as the design is not very streamlined.
I wish they would make corrective lenses for this type of goggle.
