clumpyedge Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 In the spirit of helping other people of the four eyed kind, I have been using the Nikwax visor clear on my glasses (with RX inserts) and so far even on the hottest day(s) of the year thus far and me sweating like a pig.... no fogging!!! the bottle is relatively expensive for what it is but when only a couple of sprays are need before use i think its been a worth while investment.

Id have to have the inserts done to my prescription, so no quick fix there. Do look a great set of goggles though. Think I’ll get these and the inserts done for future games, how do these compare to advancers with inserts? Think its it’s going to be the Bolle Pilot as a quick fix jobby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cipher-032 Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 I've been using these for nearly 2 years now with no issues. Plucked the outer foam away and no fogging unless its a roasting hot day. Only problem is they are completly out of stock every where. Which is a shame cause they are very good quality. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HDP-Tactical-Ballistic-Goggles-Desert-Tan/172011702871?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sako Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Just had my Bolle Raider Ballistic glasses/goggles arrive. RX inserts are away getting prescription put in. i will put up a review once I’ve used them in anger at my next couple game days. these were purchased from https://ukmcpro.co.uk/products/bolle-tactical-raider-glasses-3-lens-kit and were/are the cheapest I can find them online (that actually has stock) at £45. kit comes with three ballistic lenses smoke clear amber (plus RX prescription carrier) and a goggle type strap should you wish to use it.

Just got the same pair a few weeks back. Going to boots tomorrow to see how much it will cost (may try vision express too). Where did you get the prescription from? Thats a really good price.

fez_uk Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 I've tried the cheap glasses from websites before but for some reason never get it right ( have pretty poor eyesight) . So i'm wary to go this route. As it's easier to go back to a high street shop to make corrections. I will See what they say tomorrow with regards to cost, I had an appointment anyway.

Root Admin proffrink Posted February 19, 2018 Root Admin Share Posted February 19, 2018 I can attest to Glasses Direct doing it fine too (I've used them 3 times now), but they just follow the prescription and the pupillary distance that your highstreet optician logs. The PD is one of the most important bits so be sure you have this done properly as you may have to ask to have it done/ask for the information from your optician.

Root Admin proffrink Posted February 22, 2018 Root Admin Share Posted February 22, 2018 As above: Glazing/opticians are highly regulated (like any rendering of a prescription service) and you'll get an extremely consistent product regardless of where you go. One can absolutely go online and get just as good a job as anywhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Root Admin proffrink Posted February 22, 2018 Root Admin Share Posted February 22, 2018 What did you ask them, specifically? Did you ask if they'd 'glaze airsoft goggles' rather than sending through a picture of the insert and its specific name? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James1989 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Without copying the whole email I said I needed an insert glazed that sits inside some goggles. I was careful with my wording. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
