Eye wear

[stephen.shannon]

I wear contact lens on the slopes and use Polaroid lens in my shades but I'm finding my eyes drying out in the wind when flying, has anyone had a similar issue and figured out a solution?

To be honest Stephen the only thing i found was to use plenty of saline before the flight and anytime your plane comes down refill your eyes .  

I hope this helps.[/quote]

I use nothing...
When I fly, it's so beautiful, that I cry!
Keep my eyes wet...  :lol:  :lol:

Ok, ok, all that to say, I don't know, I wear glasses

Hi Stephen, just thinking about you problem. :?:

I’m wondering if coming at it from the opposite direction might find a solution. Instead of trying to keeping your eyes moist, why not stop them drying out?
How about a pair of “laboratory” type goggles. :shock:  No seriously, think about it.

Of course, you’ll get your leg pulled about only needing a leather helmet and a white silk scarf….but if it worked, who cares!

when Bill Scott flys on the slope he wears a pair of skiing goggles

Yep, I wear ski goggles with an orange tint. Bought cheap in Lidl!!
 If it's only a breeze, i wear wrap around shades!

Hi Stephen

I have the perfect set for you,  a set of sun glasses which can be converted into a set of goggles by removing the legs and adding the adjustable strap, you also have extra lens which can be changed to suit the light conditions.
 I use these all the time when flying as my eyes suffer from the wind also. I have a new set in the workshop, if you want a set, I will bring them with me to the next flyin, cost about 8 euro.
