I have a pair of Sable goggles which I've had for a few years and they have been great....except they aren't dark enough on a bright sunny open water swim. I'm struggling to find an equal-in-quality pair of prescription anti-fog goggles that are mirrored or otherwise are dark enough to help out with the sun glare. Ideally these would allow me to have a prescription strength that differs for each eye, but I'd be willing to work with the same strength for both eyes if I had to. Have any other optically-challenged open water/outdoor pool swimmers found this mythical pair of magical goggles?
I've used Speedo vanquisher opticals for a long while (or less expensive "clones"). They come in a "smoke" which helps with sun glare. You can buy 2 pairs, one in each eye prescription, and then swap over one eyepiece to get 2 pairs to suit your eyes. They are very affordable (eg smoke -2s at under $20). I usually buy new each year, use the new to race and last year's race pair for training. Neither mythical nor magical but they do the job for me :) I don't know if they will be dark enough for you but they might be worth a try
