Double vision after swimming

I am hoping some one will have some ideas to this problem. I started swimming in a masters program in July and I love it. But as the 1.5 hour session goes on, I notice that my vision starts to get a little blurry. By the time we are done, I am seeing double. After about an hour or so, it all clears up and I see fine. I wear contacts but they are in place the whole time. This only happens when swiming, I have never had problem like this any other time. Could it be the goggles?I don't have this problem when in a pool just horsing around.

    sounds like a goggle issue. there are so many types of goggles out there, it may just be a matter of finding the right ones. i tried an expensive pair of goggles (29 bucks) for a 5k race this summer because they had greater peripheral clarity, but after about 30 minutes of wearing them, the silicon gasket compressed enough to make it imposable for me to blink. i found that certain varieties come with a selection of nose pieces so one can achieve the perfect eye cup spacing. and they cost about 12 dollars. try on lots! good luck.
