I have not made a set yet, but wonder if Photographic filters might make a good source for lenses?
I am bound to glasses, and cant wear contacts, but am tempted to get a set with round lenses.
IMHO that is a stellar set of Goggles. thumbs up here.

Filters are good for goggles, since there's a lot of fun to be had with different colours and effects and stuff. Only problem is that the smaller sizes are more and more uncommon, since camera lenses in general tend to get bigger. But then again, a pair of goggles with 58 mm lenses might be fun Smiley

And I bid you all a good day ...
Beautifull piece of work.

Had I some time, I'd really like to give a try at making/trimming some kind of "victorian" (later known as "lennon" Wink) sunglasses (you know; round dark lenses, vire frame, some pieces of leather) ... I think quite a fitting look could be obtained with not that much of work ...
