Re: Safety Goggles headaches..

They allow for normal vision unless they're incredibly dirty, and are very comfortable if they fit right. Just be careful with them; I wear mine A LOT (probably more than most people do), and they're fairly scratched up.

Of course, glasses that are too big, small, or continually slip down your nose are never good, and cause problems such as the headaches you seem to get. You may have to do a bit of searching to find a pair that fits you well, but it'll be worth it.

For competition season, I use these. They're pretty much the same as the other glasses that I use, but they're imagery compliant for my team and they look a bit more professional.
