 Poster: A snowHead

I used my prescription photochromatics for a while. They actually work better in colder conditions. But I now have a separate set of dark prescription Aviator RayBans which are coated on the inside as well as outside of the lens, after being diagnosed with incipient cataracts. The UV at altitude is intense and you need the maximum protection you can get. Eye damage can take years to manifest itself. So my advice is wrap-around or aviator-type prescriptions, coated-on-two-sides, and then elevated goggles to accomodate them. The goggles are the one case where I'd shop in the UK rather than in resort, as I'm not sure that many resort shops have a good selection.

He was about 5 or 6 and needed glasses after an accident. So we found some children's OTG goggles. This was about 12 or so years ago but he definitely had some. Can't remember where from though sorry.

Bolle definitely have some, so I assume others will have some too.
I need to get some prescription inserts but I need a new helmet and googles first. I hope they fog up as that's why I don't want to wear my glasses while skiing as fogging up is a nightmare.
Where's the best place to get inserts from?

I found some Bolle Boost for £11 so I just had to buy them. Not in pink, but I'm sure she will love them anyway.

I use goggles over my glasses, or, if very sunny, cebe sunglasses with optical inserts. Both work fine for me.
