Prescription Sports Goggles Come in Handy for Lots of Things

They are so comfortable, and I never have to worry about them slipping and sliding when I get sweaty in the heat. I also love the good peripheral vision they provide that you just can't get with ordinary glasses. I made this blog to share my eyewear tips! Enjoy!
