Poster: A snowHead

Does anyone know if you can buy these in the same way as you can buy reading glasses without a prescription?

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

Ok, I'm intrigued, why?

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Do you intend on doing a lot of reading in bad weather?
I'm a wearer of glasses. I possess a few solutions. I use contact lenses initially, then OTG goggles if my contacts fail me or become too uncomfortable.
A quick google chucked this page at me immediately. http://www.rxsport.co.uk/categories/Browse-by-Sport/Ski/Ski-Sunglasses/
If you're looking for an off the shelf product, i think you'll struggle, but in the winter sports industry, specifically requested/made lenses are pretty normal!

Thanks, I use off the shelf glasses for close and distance use and i just wondered if it was possible to get similar goggles. I already have sunglasses with reading lenses.

What about just wearing OTG goggles over the reading glasses?

I'll have a go at that, I just thought that it would be easier to just have the goggles but it doesn't seem that these are possible. Thanks for your help.

The link I sent had varifocal goggles!

Varifocals are possible in virtually all of our sunglasses for skiing. You can leave your reading glasses at the chalet if you just need to check the piste map or locate Wiener Schnitzel on the menu. As ever, we would only recommend varifocals for people who wear progressive lenses day to day, your one week in the snow is probably not the best time to learn how to use a varifocal! No more excuses for plummeting down a black run when you meant to meander down a blue. There are no more excuses for plummeting down a black run when you meant to meander down a blue.
