has anyone experienced blurry vision underwater with these?

Did you remove the plastic protective sheet on the outside of the lens before you first used it?

I never had blurry vision with these as long as they were clean and clear of any fog. I bought some cat spit at one time but just regular plain old spit works just as well and is what I typically do. Love these goggles. Very comfortable. Better than any speedo I ever tried.

No. My daughters have been wearing these for 5 years and love them. We tried others but these are the best. My husband also uses these and love them too.

yes, clear above water but blurry underwater. But they fog less and have a wider field of view than what I used previously.

My son is the same in both eyes, so we never had the issue. However, in looking at my son's goggles, it looks like you could take them apart between the lenses with the interchangeable nose piece, then feed the strap through where it connects to the eye piece, remove one of the eyepieces and build your own pair of goggles with different powers. I highly recommend these goggles for recreational wear. The only problems we have had is that they do fog up and they don't stay on well for competitive swimming.

I haven't had the opportunity to try it out under water, but it does operate differently. I tried it out at home and the photos are blurry unless you have the lense set at maximum exposure (all the way out). It then takes clear photos. This means to me that you better be ready to use it when it is in that mode before it automatically turns off during your power saving mode.

I'm a sailor as well. I haven't taken these on a boat, but I've used my older Nikons (1970's) on a boat for years with no problem. That said, if I were paranoid about it and could afford it, I'd buy a waterproof pair.

In my personal experience, I had no trouble at all with the fog. Even when I had terrible weather while skiing. I highly recommend these goggles.In case they get snow inside, I suggest drying them naturally and perhaps using a tissue for the outside lens.

These glasses provide slight magnification to nearby objects and I've noticed that far away objects become blurry. I wouldn't wear them while driving. I have perfect vision and do not wear prescription glasses. Based on your eyesight, things might be different for you. You need to make sure that you are able to see the signs and cars (nearby/far-off) clearly and that these glasses do not make your blind spots larger.

No, these are awesome! The adjustments are great and you don't need to have them very tight in order to keep the water out of your eyes.

Remember these are basically keeping water out of your eyes and not for reading. I chose the prescription that was closest to my actual prescripton and they work very well. I have no issues with fogging if I put a little surface tension reducer (spit) inside then rinse them out.

I've never tried them in a wet environment, and I don't think I will. They don't seem waterproof at all. Seem to be normal headset construction.

For underwater, I thought they were pretty good shots. We used ours in Puerto Morales, so same vicinity as Cozumel. If you want to contact me at dasjman@yahoo.com, I can send you a couple images I took this past June while snorkeling, if it helps you decide. Obviously, the more expensive cameras take better pictures, but for the price, I was very satisfied with it.

I do. Used a set of Duracell for 4 dives about one hour each. Still super bright

Haven't had mine for more than a few months (approximately 3-4), so far have has no issues with fogging though. I know it is still early to tell, but running water over them hasn't been a problem for me thus far. Hope this helps. -Jesse

I would not recommend these lights. They have allready taken in water and foged up on the inside lense. My angle was about 20.

Every one I've ever had has been ok underwater. If your running a winch plan on buying two of them because you will go through them eventually but they work great!!

I think they are rather bright. I do have mine fully submerged and have had to problem with them not being water proof. I have mine slightly angled into the rocks so it isn't as bright.

Hi Tom, unfortunately I haven't tried to use mine underwater since I take videos of my hiking adventures. But, I highly doubt it would work underwater since it is made for out of water use. The underwater replacement lenses are flat, not curved. If you hunt Amazon, you can find the lenses made for underwater shooting.

I have to wear glasses all the time and use these binos with no problems. The focusing mechanisms work well. As for nitrogen filled, really do not know, but have not had any problems with fogging or moisture.
