No.. She had them make the entire goggles for her.. I guess they measure
her
head or something to get the right length for the band, etc..

Ok.. I checked with the wife and she said that she asked our optometrist
about
getting the goggles and they said "no problem". They had to take
measurements
for her face (eye size, etc) and they took care of ordering with her
prescription
for the lenses and a few weeks later she had them. She thinks they cost
about
$160 or so..

That's not a bad price at all, less then a pair of prescription lens in a
decent frameset. in fact, my frames alone cost more then that. Thanks, I
know now what to ask the optician for, and I think it is about time for a
new checkup, yep I'm sure of it.
