Hello,

are there other goggle alternatives on the market besides Aqua Sphere Eagle?

I don't want contact lenses and my eye sight is so bad that I can't navigate (or find my bike!) without goggles with optical lenses.

Speedo vanquisher optical. Not interchangable lenses, but they're inexpensive.

They only have clear lenses , so if it's sunny on race day it's hard to navigate

Yeah, you can get a pair of clear for indoor and a pair of tinted for outdoor, and only be out $40. Even if you have to mix and match prescriptions, you're only out $80.....and you end up with 4 pairs of goggles.

Have to say I'm very happy with my eagles for the pool. Maybe not the most stylish, but do the job.

I always wear contacts outside though and some shaded goggles.
