Are there any goggles out there that do not leave you with the big red marks around your eyes for the rest of the morning/day?

Barracuda goggles have worked for me for decades. the memory foam gasket is extremely comfortable (no marks) and non-leaking.

The worst fitting and most uncomfortable goggles for me are the swedes.

Perform a search in the main forum for goggles and you will find many threads with others' opinions.

its very likely that you are just wearing your goggles too tight. They should stay on and not leak without being super tight (although if you have to dive in, you may have to tighten a bit), but for normal swim workouts where you aren't diving, you can probably loosen them up.

If you find you are having to pull them very tight to stop them leaking, you may find youth sizes are a better fit. I had this problem in the past and solved it by switching to ones designed for smaller/narrower faces. Hope it helps!
