We understand that wearing goggles over glasses is the preferred way to ride for many on the slopes. However, we believe there is a safer, more comfortable way to shred the gnar. Prescription goggle inserts work just like your glasses, except better. We’ll explain more below, but first let’s take a look at how OTG goggles work.


How Wearing Goggles Over Glasses Works

OTG goggles—also known as over glasses goggles—are snow goggles that fit over your regular prescription eyeglasses. The goggle might have grooves on either side of the chassis to “fit” your glasses temples. You know you have the right fit when the goggles don’t squeeze your glasses onto your face or cause them to ride up your nose. No one has time for that!


If you’re going to wear OTG goggles, it’s best to wear lightweight eyeglasses that are made of impact resistant materials. This is key for safety reasons in the event of a fall. Opt for materials like polycarbonate versus glass lenses, and nylon or acrylic frames over metal ones. The safer the materials, the better off you’ll be.


One of the most common problems with OTG goggles is fogging. Since your glasses sit close to your face, they tend to warm up quickly and collect moisture as they condense with the cold air. This is highly common and can be distracting—dangerous, even—if you can’t stop to clean them for any reason.


Where to Find Prescription Ski Goggles

Since OTG goggles can be uncomfortable and inconvenient, what about wearing prescription ski goggles? For the most part, prescription ski goggles are rare. This is because goggles have a single shield lens that curves at several angles, and prescription lenses require mostly flat lenses.


While you might not be able to find goggle lenses in prescription, there is a way to instantly turn your goggles into prescription ski goggles. Read on to learn how, or check out our blog 7 Things to Know About Prescription Snow Goggles.


Prescription Goggle Inserts

Prescription goggles inserts are small, flexible, clear inserts that are shaped like butterfly wings and customized to your prescription, goggle brand, and size. They have prongs on the top and bottom that secure them inside your favorite pair of snow goggles for easy insertion and removal.


We’ll cut to the chase: our Sports Opticians highly recommend snow goggle inserts for a number of great reasons!


Snow Goggle Inserts Are Safer Than Over Glasses Goggles

First and most importantly, prescription goggles inserts are a safer option than wearing glasses under your goggles. The last thing you want is to take a fall and end up injuring your eyes (on top of something else) because your regular eyeglasses weren’t meant for sports activities. Goggle inserts are lighter in weight and much less likely to become loose inside your goggles compared to glasses. Plus, it’d be a real bummer to damage your fancy eyeglasses on a highly anticipated trip or vacation. Goggle inserts are a smart way to protect that investment.


Prescription Goggles Inserts Prevent Fogging

Secondly, prescription goggles inserts help eliminate fogging. How? Rather than being close to your eyes, the insert will rest next to the goggle shield, which is equipped with a ventilation system to wick away condensation. All goggle inserts at SportRx are also coated with an anti fog coating, so you won’t need to stop and wipe them.


Snow Goggle Inserts Are Available For High Prescriptions

The third reason we love and recommend prescription goggles inserts is because they can accommodate higher, stronger prescriptions. If you wear a high prescription, bring it to us! We live for this at SportRx, and we’ll work tirelessly to make sure you can shred the slopes with perfect clarity.


Get Snow Goggle Lens Tech With Your Rx

Lastly, prescription goggles inserts offer the best visual experience because they work with any goggle lens tech and can give you a wider field of vision than your eyeglasses will. Say you love SMITH’s ChromaPop™ lens tech. Simply pop in your Rx insert and now you’ve got all the color enhancing features of ChromaPop™ technology. So you can take in the whole landscape for increased awareness and sights.
