Default Most comfortable goggles over glasses

To those who ride that wear glasses and no helmet or half helmet, do you wear goggles over your glasses? If so what is the most comfortable?
I find that the colder air coming around my glasses causes my eyes to water to the point it's hard to see. Cant stand a full face helmet. What's my options?

The make prescription motorcycle/sport glasses that have the ability to block a lot of wind from affecting your eyes.

I don't think there is such a thing

I went to the Wiley X prescription glasses for that reason

I use ASR performance glasses that are prescription and transition, thus no need for goggles

I wear these over my glasses. The center padding is soft enough work with the nose bridge of the frame. Is it perfect? No. Can I ride for 300 miles with them? Yes.

The 3/4 that works best with them is the Biltwell Bonanza. The Bell pushes them down to much. Have not worn them with a 1/2 helmet. They get a little sweaty on a hot day, but fog free when moving.

Prescription are nice, but pricey....these are $30...hard to go wrong.

These are the ones I used before I got a bike with a wind screen. https://guarddogs.com/collections/mo...-glass-goggles I had the Evader1. You can get them in different sizes depending on the size of your glasses. I also had a couple of different tint lenses. They were very comfortable

Take your prescription and pick out a pair of riding goggles.

I used some by Oakey (sp?) that were designed for over glasses. I don't use them on bike anymore-went modular-but I still use them when I have to use the snow blower. They weren't that expensive and worked well.. Still do. The foam around edge hasn't deteriorated and they are probably 18 yrs old. I wore them regularly on bike for about 3 yrs.

I haven't found a set of google that fit over glasses properly. They all contact the outer frame of the glasses which pushes them against my nose arch. So much for actually testing their products.

These are what I use. I put a little strip of 1/4" weatherstrip on the nose bridge and they are very comfortable with excellent wind protection. The foam around the edges deteriorates after about one season, but for the price, well worth it for me. I have the clear finish for after dark too. I have a shelf in my ride locker that is plumb full of other goggles that didn't work for me.
