What do you all use for sunglasses/shades when paddling around here and
there?

Now that the subject of eyewear has been brought up I've got a related
inquiry:

What do people, who have to wear glasses with powerful prescriptions (as in:
can't see diddly without them), do in rough water where the potential for
capsizing is high, or want to learn/practice rolls? Can prescription
swimming goggles be made? Are there other alternatives?

My wife has prescription goggles that were made specifically for her by our
optometrist.. It took them about a month to make them, but they fit well
and look otherwise just like any other pair of goggles (except considerably
more expensive than your run-of-the-mill goggles).
