So I have this yellow helmet w/ working clear & tinted visors. Not sure what I would do if I wanted another in a different color tho. (I was thinking it would be fun to have a white camo helmet for off-road snow rides)
I like how they turn around if want a break from them
the clear one doesn't get as much use
like car window tinting, from the inside looking out, the tinted one is not that dark
& with enough light you can see into it from the outside

You could wear the dirtbike goggles
i am short-sighted, so i need to use corrective glasses all the time and i haven't been able to find cycling goggles that can be wear over my glasses. I am afraid someday a bug or a small rock could hit my corrective glasses and damage them.
Unfortunately, the contact glasses i can use are no longer available here in venezuela, so it's back to standard glasses for me.
If you know a brand of cycling goggles that can be worn over corrective glasses, please share a link on this thread. I thought i could also look for helmets with a visor that fits over my glasses, but i haven't found any around here. Any suggestion will be helpful. Thank you!

The safety glasses that can be worn over regular eyeglasses work pretty well. I usually wear contact lenses but when there are a lot of insects in the air, I often put on a pair of safety glasses to avoid them getting in my eyes.
I don't know if any other contact lens wearers have had this problem, but sometimes when I ride fast in the morning after putting in my contacts, my eyes run uncontrollably. I found that wearing the safety glasses keeps the wind off my eyes, and somehow that solves the teary eye problem.

I too where the Flak Jacket with an RX lenses. My insurance gives me lenses every year, so I replaces the lenses if my RX has changed drastically, which luckily it has not over the last couple, but this year I took advantage and went with a clear lense with transition so when I start the ride in the early morning or night, I can still see 
. My normal RX frames are also Oakley's and I love them, so lenses replacements is usually all I do.

Helmet over eyeglasses
Get Giro Vanquish works for me over my eyeglasses.
