Have you tried one on and kept it on for 25 - 30 minutes? If not, that is the first step. I would never buy a helmet (again) that I haven't tried on as mentioned. Did that once for a $200 helmet and the 1st time I wore the damn thing it was killing my forehead something fierce.
Couldn't return it, so I was out $200.

I have one and love it.
Very comfortable and the shade works very well. Eliminates the need for sunglasses or goggles. I also like it better than my half helmet because I can mount the factory headset it in.

Had one for about 3 months and love it. With the inner shield for the sun, you don't get the pressure from glasses squeezing your temples for long trips. It has a great weather protection, with the design of the outer shield. When it is fully closed, very little wind comes up inside, so when in the rain very little makes it inside.
If it is comfortable for you, then I would highly recommend it.

I just tried it with a set of glasses on for you, No Problem.....That being said, I would still try it with whatever glasses you would be wearing.

I'm looking at this one, EXO-900: http://www.scorpionusa.com/home.html
Check out the video.
Saw it in person but they didn't have my size for a fit check.

Just purchased this for the lady
I am going with one myself
I tried on several; HD and others and this ones feels the best
However I can't decide between L or XL
I sometimes wear a rag under and still going back and forth
on the size, but this will be the one I pick
