Prescription Ski Goggles for Men

Where to Find Prescription Ski Goggles

Finding prescription ski goggles for men has never been easier. Thanks to Rx goggle inserts, you can convert any model into an Rx ski goggle. The removable two-lens piece fits right into your goggle chassis for comfortable, hands-free clarity. And since not all goggles are the same, SportRx offers over two dozen insert sizes to match almost any model on the market. Simply tell us what goggles you have or want, and our expert Sports Opticians will find the perfect Rx insert to match.

Prescription inserts are the safest, most enjoyable solution for snow-goers who wear corrective lenses. Unlike glasses or contacts, they don’t touch your face or eyes. This is also why they’re less likely to fog, and pose less injury risk if you fall. Prescription goggle inserts fit firmly into your goggle, so there’s no fussing or readjusting during your run. Plus, no one wants to ruin their everyday eyeglasses on the slopes.

Thanks to prescription goggle inserts, you no longer have to settle for a limited selection of OTG goggles. With so many models to choose from, here are a few tips for finding your men’s prescription ski goggles.

Choosing Men's Ski Goggles

When choosing your men’s ski goggles, start with a few basic features to ensure a baseline standard of quality. Triple-layer face foam, adjustable silicone-lined straps, and proprietary color-boosting lens tech are all key indicators of a performance snow goggle. Nearly every goggle at SportRx starts with these features. That’s because each one has been carefully approved by our Sports Opticians, many of whom also ski and board.

Wide Field of View

Your field of view is how broad your viewing range is through your goggle lens. The bigger it is, the better! A wide field of view can boost your reaction time and help you spot jumps, lines, and even potential hazards as you’re bombing down the hill. Lens shape and design can enhance this. For example, cylindrical lenses often have a wide field of view, since they have the lowest profile and sit closest to the face. This can also be influenced by whether you’re using a prescription insert or wearing glasses under your goggles. Inserts give a wider field of view than glasses, since your glasses frame is often visible.

Lens Interchangeability

If you like to be ready for any weather or lighting conditions, snow goggles with interchangeable lenses make it easy to switch between different lens tints on the go. Not only does this allow you to perfectly match your lens tint to your surroundings, it saves you from having to buy multiple goggles with different tints. While most men’s ski goggles come with a tint for variable lighting, interchangeable lenses allow you to switch to a lower or higher VLT for greater comfort, clarity, and visibility.

Photochromic Lenses

Photochromic lenses are great for variable conditions and will save you from having to carry an extra lens on the mountain. They have a light, transparent tint that darkens with UV exposure and auto-adjusts to your environment. Not only are they versatile, you won’t have to stop to switch out your lens! So you can ride uninterrupted. The only caveat is certain tints might not be dark enough for extra sunny bluebird days.

On top of these, other factors to think about are durability, helmet compatibility, and a solid anti-fog or ventilation system in your men’s ski goggles.
