    Default Can anyone recommend good eye protection that fits over glasses?

    I'm also looking for ear protection.

    Metz and Erswnn would both kind enough to lend my ear and eye protection while shooting, but I'd like to be able to not have to be a bother on others for equipment and for times when I head out to different places, so I'm looking for some recs on cheap, but good ear and eye protection. For the ear protection the headphone units worked well for me (vs ear plugs) and for the eye ones I just need something that's designed to fit (comfortably) over glasses.

    Online is always good, but local recs are fine too.

    I got this ESS modular set up and love it. You get clear, smoke and yellow with a case for $63. I added the new Copper lens for another $17 and the wire carrier frame for $28. It cost about $60 to get bifocal lenses made for the carrier frame. I have the right color lens for any kind of light condition with a prescription.
    The older I get, the better I used to be.

    That's actually pretty cool, but for the moment I was looking for one that just fits on top of the glasses and a bit on the lower end of the price spectrum (for the moment at least).

    If you have wire frame glasses, check with your optician. Instead of clunky things that fit over your glasses, you could get plastic side shields that just keep flying debris from entering from the top or sides. Mine just snap into place, so I keep them in my glasses case for whenever I need shielding.
    Know your audience. Don't try to sell a Prius at a Monster Truck Rally.
