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.:)

So far the largest number seem to have voted for "Other colors". I wonder if that's because a lot use Amber colored lenses, since I didn't include "Amber" in the "Dark (grey)" option? I really doubt most people use such fancy colors like blue, pink, purple, etc. :rolleyes:
Also I'm a little surprised more people volted for clear than dark/smoke/grey, because the most I see in the pools and in any videos are dark/smoke/grey. I haven't seen an Olympic medalist wear clear lenses (maybe Olympic pools are very bright?).
