What is the color of your goggle lenses?

It seems most people wear goggles with dark lenses? I wonder if it's necessary in a pool unless the pool is very brightly lighted? Do open water swimmers wear dark goggles or clear lenses? Thanks for taking the poll.:)

  • Hey, Debbie, I use the same two models of goggles! But, I use my dark Aqua Spheres for training, because they are comfy and I use my T-72 Petites at meets (not comfy, but they stay on off the blocks). Mine are blue; I should have gotten dark. LOL! It must be a Long Beach thing. :cool: The TYR goggles fit my face/eyes perfectly, but I really like my Aqua Sphere Kaimans the best. They are really comfortable and you can't beat the field of vision they provide. The only downside is that they are twice as expensive as the TYR goggles, so I'm only using them for open water.
