Does anyone know where you can get shooting goggles that fit over your eyeglasses?

Post by 45flattop on Thu Dec 22, 2011 5:23 pm

Ordinary shooting glasses don't work in my case since I'm bat blind without my Rx glasses
so a year or so back I came across goggles that would work over eyeglasses but now cannot
find them again!! Help!!!!!!!!!

I work offshore and we also have some over the glasses safety glasses, they are not as bulky as the goggles. I'm not sure if you would be interested but oilfield supply stores have both kind.

wal mart can make lenses that qualify as safety glasses. The ones i have now are close enough, they have survived some nasty stuff and only have a few tiny chip marks.

This company has an Rx carrier of some sort. Quote from the NRA blog

Revision Eyewear has been a supporter of NRA's Training Department for the past several years, and now they are offering a special holiday promotion through the Revision online store.

When you place an order of $99 or more in the Revision online store, you’ll receive a free Revision Swag Kit that includes a Revision Velcro patch, Revision hat and two Revision bandanas.

There is a limit of one swag kit per order, and in addition to receiving the free swag kit, NRA Members can save 30% by entering the promo code NRAPROTECT at checkout.

Everyone loves free swag, so go to the Revision online store to order your Revision eyewear and get some free swag of your own! But don't wait - this promotion is only good through the end of the day on Thursday, December 22.

I had a thread a while back about this very subject. There were some good recommendations. I'll see if I can dig it up.

You should be able to find an opthamalogist who could make you some prescription safety glasses. If you haven't come up with anything, when I go back to work I will ask the guy who teaches it next door to me about it.

We don't start back until January but if you will pm and remind me I will be happy to ask.

Thank you ALL for the prompt replies, I knew that the MSGO membership would have
good answers, I think I've found what i need.

About prescription shooting glasses, my doc is a master class IPSC shooter himself
so I'll consult him too to ensure that my next Rx for daily use is good for safety use
too.

I have polycarbonate (Lexan) lenses in my everyday glasses which are essentially the same as safety glasses. Cost about $20 extra.

Remember, though, there is no side protection. If I was shooting a lot of steel at close range I might worry a little. I think there are clip-on side shields that attach to your regular earpieces. ( BubbaT can find a link. Smile )

Beat me to it. I have to wear safety glasses at work and have been buying from them for over 7 years. I'm partial to Smith and Wesson but they have a vast selection. I've always had good dealings with them.
