Description (Rebecca's)

Onion goggles are designed for cooks. They're basically a cheap knockoff of the 7Eye Cyclone foam-lined sunglasses frame style, but with  with simple clear lenses. 

This was one of the earliest really popular types of low-cost moisture chamber goggles, because they have such a nice deep foam seal without looking completely ridiculous. (Although, to be fair, everyone has a different definition of ridiculous. Some people think these are cute, others wouldn't be caught dead in them.)

What they're good at

Onion goggles have a deep seal, clear lenses, and a reasonably versatile size. That makes them a GREAT way to "test the concept" - to figure out whether dry eye glasses or moisture goggles will be helpful to you, and if so, how much.

Once you know, then you can consider whether for your lifestyle needs, it might be worth investing in some more 'aesthetically pleasing types or ones with tinted or prescription lenses.

Limitations

• Not Rxable. (Well, if you have a very low script, are determined, and have an especially accommodating optician, it's possible, but we don't recommend it.)
• Can't be worn over glasses. If you want a way to test the concept with your glasses, you're probably going to be stuck with safety or motorcycle goggles. Try the Evader line.
• Stiff. They are a decent 'one size fits all' but.. if they're too small, they'll be uncomfortable.
• Available only with clear lenses.
