Goggles for Glasses
Ski goggles make great personal protective equipment if safety goggles don't fit over your eyeglasses.
If you wear eyeglasses and you’re trying to keep dust and other nuisance particles out of your eyes, the typical solution is to wear safety goggles over your glasses. Unfortunately, the goggles you find in the PPE aisle of the local hardware store leave a lot to be desired. The options are few, and they fit poorly. So forget the hardware store; instead, head to your winter outfitter and check out the ski goggles. There you’ll find the most comfortable, best-fitting goggles you’ve ever tried—and you can have your choice of clear, polarized, and light-0reducing shades.

Ski goggles are good for stopping dust but they are not rated at the ANSI Z87.1 safety standards. They well not stop high speed sharp items.
