ESS strikers fit with my glasses, but I also decided to go with contacts just for games. I ran a pair of trial contacts a couple weeks ago for a day skirmish and they were fine. I normally can't wear contacts for work (I tried it) cause my eyes dry out too quickly, but when confined within the sealed goggles, they were fine...and probably sucking up some of the moisture inside the goggles... heh.

Not quite sure how the contacts will hold up for say a 24 hour game as they start really irritating me after about 14-16 hours.

Also, a full head mesh mask would probably work if you have a reasonably low profile pair of glasses.

I also have the RX insert for my strikers as a backup, though I didn't really like how those fit inside and not sure if I like the vision out of them.

if you go with strikers and RX insert let me know, you will need a donor insert for them to measure for the lenses... the insert has these arms on it that mount in the goggles... they get in the way of the machine that does the measurements... you have to sacrifice an insert by cutting the mounting arms off so lenses can be measured.

The NVG turbofan with the Rx insert might be a better choice since the newer insert doesn't use the arms, but a clip at the nose... and it doesn't get in the way of the machine.
