Yeah I tend to suffer with my nose (deviated septum) I just tried out every pair i could find in snow and rock and ended up buying the most comfortable which were the Oakley AFrame an cost a fortune :) haven't used them yet though so time will tell if they are comfortable for a whole day without blocking my nose!
Was thinking about getting a helmet while i was away, hope that doesnt impact on it.
I also suffer from being very very hot! No matter how many clothes i remove which tend to make my lenses steam up (bloody sweaty eyebrows) hopefully the dual lens in the oakleys will help with that aswell as single lens are a waste of time and i have to switch to sunnies and just deal with the wind.

Hi everyone,
I have terrible trouble with my eyes when ski-ing as well. I am shortsighted so I need to wear glasses all the time. I have reactolites, however you spell it, so they double as sunglasses. But when the light is bad and everything is flat, or when it's snowing, I have to wear goggles. And because I still need my glasses, I have to have huge goggles which cover my glasses, and I can't even see my skis. I have a very limited field of vision in front of me, unless of course I turn my head.
I bought good quality yellow goggles, from a proper sports shop (very expensive but I've forgotten how much), so I don't have trouble with them fogging up, but I also have trouble breathing through my nose, and when I'm talking it makes me sound like I have trouble with my adenoids.
When I first tried wearing them I thought I'd never manage, especially since I couldn't see my skis and I wasn't very good at ski-ing then. I tried managing with just my glasses but they fogged up, and at one point I had to ski without glasses, in a snowstorm, when I could hardly see anything.
But now, I've got more used to the goggles. I'm better at ski-ing so I don't need to see my skis any more, and I've got used to having difficulty breathing through my nose. But I never wear them unless I've absolutely got to. I carry them slung around my neck, for emergencies only.
If you find out how to fix the nose breathing problem please let me know.
