Hi I was just wondering if anyone could recommend some good goggles for OWS for contact lense wearers. I am new to OWS and am scared that I am going to get water in my goggles and for it to ruin the day!

AQUA SPHERE WOMENS VISTA TRIATHLON SWIMMING GOGGLES
I wear contacts and these goggles are great. Big, more like a mask but they are designed for triathlon swimming. Got mine on ebay £19 i think.
Regards
Melissa

If you are worried about wearing contact lenses in your OWS you may want to try the Aqua Shere goggles with presciption lenses. I am as 'blind as a bat' without glasses & was very worried about not being able to see where I was swimming in the GLS. I brought these goggles & lenses from www.wiggle.co.uk & they are great. I can see just as well as with my glasses. I think they costed about £8.50 a lense & £18.00 for the goggles which i though was a good price. Good luck
