We also went to Costco for my daughters, think they were around £25-£30 and she gets on really well with them.

Dh needed new prescription goggles for holidays last year and went to boots who quoted a minimum of £75 and spec savers who no longer did them so after looking on line we found goggle eyed a small company who charged something like £18. He didn’t think they would be any use but he said they were far superior in terms of comfort and ability to see than the ones he had previously from his usual optician which cost him £40 around 2005. The service was quick and I think I emailed some questions and they replied very promptly.

Our son has -5 and we got some from Costco. He doesn't like them and said they make him feel dizzy. I'd like to get a snorkel mask before our next holiday if anyone can recommend a good supplier for these or do the above all do snorkel masks too? Thanks.

I would defiantly recommend this website, I bought a pair of prescription goggles prior to our 2017 Florida trip. Sent them a copy of my prescription and received the goggles a few days later.
Made such a difference being able to do waterparks with them on rather than relying on sunglasses (especially after my prescription sunglasses fell off on a slide in 2014 and in the Typhoon Lagoon wave pool in 2016).

I got a pair intended for outside swimming which had a sunglasses style mirrored lens. Not perfect in the Florida sun, but a lot better than nothing.

Dd got her recent pair from
Asda opticians mainly because she got her new glasses and sunglasses from there. They were £20.

This basic goggle suits my active boys just fine. My oldest is -4 so really struggles without them. The one thing I would say, is that if your son has an astigmatism, the the goggles won’t correct this. Our optician jiggled around with his prescription to suggest the best combination for him. He gets new glasses every 6 months or so, so these are cheap enough to upgrade as well.
thank you for this information, i have ordered my first pair of prescription googles from this site, very good price

DH got some really cheap on Ebay a few years ago - he is blind as a bat and these cost under £10. He loves them, wears them in the pool and in the sea, have lasted well.
