Perscription Inserts

[pulsipher]

Hey All Pulsipher here.

This year I think im ready to take the plunge and move to prescription inserts for goggles instead of wearing my glasses and googles or shooting glasses.

I would like to know what the poorly sighted community uses and where you have obtained them.

Thanks in advance

A few visually impared people on our team like to use bug eyes, we purchase them at the Oregon Pacific Company. So far they seem to fit over most glasses, they can cause your glasses to put pressure on your nose. I don't like how my glasses fog when I go from shade to sun (but I think that will happen with any eye pro placed over glasses). More than anything else I would recommend getting contacts if you can.

Here's a website that has the buy eyez mesh for sale if you want to check them out

I got a set of shooting glasses with prescription inserts several years ago at AONW. Don't remember what they were called, but they were about $35 and I had to find somewhere to put lenses into the insert. All together, it cost me about $150, but it was worth it. The only downside is the frames were somewhat cheaply made and keep breaking at the hinge. I've glued one set in place, and I have a couple of spares as well, if I should need them.

Doesn't revision have prescription sticky things for their goggles? You just have to have them done by your eye doc.

sticky things?

Clip ins?

Clip ins are great for goggles, but for safety glasses, might as well go prescription.
Clip ins just add another thing to fog, even while wearing mesh goggles.

Yeah, they were like clear stickers that just stuck to the lens of the goggle. I can't find them at all. Can't remember where i saw them at either.

Interesting.

I use ESS P-2B inserts. They work in my ICE, NVG Profile, and Crossbow, all from ESS.

They work well.

They're also decently cheap. I paid 137$, but that was counting in a lens I bought for my ICE. That was including the frame and the prescription lenses, put in by a company that makes prescription lenses for these inserts all the time.
