I'm currently using dark, not mirrored, goggles for outdoor swimming, and I'm still blinded by sun light. Will switching to mirrored make a difference, or are there any goggles that are specifically suitable for outdoor swimming? My son is also running into problems with his dark prescription goggles byTYR, any alternatives that might help?
I'd hate to switch back to our indoor Y just so I don't have to swim backstroke blind!:cool:

My personal solution is that I don't swim backstroke outdoors (or at least try not to - IMs are not backstroke) :) Only in competitions, and I just use the dark tinted swedes (non-mirrored). Just don't stare directly at the light!
