Baller Ed_Johnson Posted May 10, 2012 Baller Share Posted May 10, 2012 Recently underwent eye surgery to save my left eye. Good news was they saved the eye, but bad news was I will never see out of it again. It will only let light through. It will be a couple of months before I ski again, but the Doctor stated I should wear some type of eye protection for all sports, and especially Skiing. My question is what have the Ballers found to work best. Keep in mind I always keep my head down coming out of the water, so I need something that will stay on your head. Thanks in Advance, ED Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller WBLskier Posted May 10, 2012 Baller Share Posted May 10, 2012 I bought a pair of TYR water sport goggles on ebay for $3.50. They seem stay on well and not fog up...and have rubber seals to keep the water out. At that price you could just order a pair and see if they work for you. They are pretty ugly, but who cares.

Administrators Horton Posted May 10, 2012 Administrators Share Posted May 10, 2012 I wear Bomber floating safety glasses.

Baller thager Posted May 10, 2012 Baller Share Posted May 10, 2012 Hope you recover quick Ed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller jipster43 Posted May 10, 2012 Baller Share Posted May 10, 2012 I wear the Bomber floating glasses (clear) with the floating Chums retention device. When there's glare I attach my polarized sunglasses to the Chums and use those. The Bombers work great, but the yellow Chums make them easy to find when I have a yard sale!

Baller Marco Posted May 12, 2012 Baller Share Posted May 12, 2012 Ed- I'm really sorry to hear about your eye. I hope you have a quick recovery and get back on the water soon.!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller jipster43 Posted May 12, 2012 Baller Share Posted May 12, 2012 @Ed Johnson - Even with the retention device my Bombers get peeled off my head. If I didn't have the yellow Chums attached to them I'd have a hard time finding them. Recently I've been using my normal polarized sunglasses with the Chums and like that the best.

Administrators Horton Posted May 12, 2012 Administrators Share Posted May 12, 2012 I lose a pair of Bombers once a year. They are disposable that is kind of the point.

Baller Ed_Johnson Posted May 12, 2012 Author Baller Share Posted May 12, 2012 @Horton...Since you have been using them a long time, what Model works best for you and do you use a retention strap ? Thanks @Marco...Thanks, guess it's my turn in the barrel !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kona Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Just ordered some bombers. One polarized for driving and one yellow for skiing. John is right, at the price they are disposable. Oh ya free shipping today also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
