Halcyon Prescription Goggles

Halcyon prescription goggles are old-fashioned eyewear meant for riding motorcycles. They can give you the look of World War II era British Royal Air Force pilots while keeping you comfortable and allowing you to see well. Wear them with your vintage motorcycle for a thrill. You may not be able to find goggles with your prescription intact right away, but it isn't difficult to remove the lenses and have new ones with tints and/or vision correction put in.

Halcyon goggles are made in the United Kingdom and are designed with the old fashioned goggles of the British Royal Air Force during World War II in mind. You can use them with open face helmets. The frames are made from brass and then padded with leather or a PVC mask (hand-stitched). However, the bridge area is generally not padded.

The color choices you get come from either chrome plating or paint and the removable and adjustable 25 mm headband coordinates with the color of the frames. The lenses are impact-resistant because they're made from polycarbonate, and they're available in clear or smoke. Thanks to ventilation holes, the goggles are unlikely to fog up.

According to Davida.co.uk, the Halcyon goggles will accommodate prescriptions ranging from -6.00 to +6.00. However, it seems as if it is difficult to order Halcyon prescription goggles online. It may be wise to speak with your optician or directly with a representative from a local eyeglass lab in order to find out if they have experience fitting prescription lenses into Halcyon goggles. From there, you can pursue the pair of Halcyon goggles of your choice, taking advantage of the best deals you can find, and take your prescription along with your goggles to the optical shop or lab.

At Maximum Eyewear, you'll find Halcyon goggles for $45.00. They are available in two colors combinations, Black with Smoke Lenses and Black and Chrome with Smoke Lenses. They offer 100 percent UV protection, impact resistant anti-fog lenses, and faux leather padding. They are also designed to fit so well against the wearer's head that the wind and other elements are locked out. These goggles are said to fit over most eyeglass frames, so if you'd rather not have prescription lenses put into the goggles and don't wear contacts, they could be a viable option for you.

British Classics offers a wide variety of Halcyon goggles. Expect to pay between $110.00 and $130.00. You can choose from the following:

• Mark 49 in Chrome/Black or Black/Black
• Mark 9 Vintage in Silver/Brown Leather
• Mark 9 Super Jet in Silver/Brown Vinyl
• Mark 9 Rider in Silver/Black Vinyl
• Mark 8 RAF Replica in Grey/Brown Leather

You can also pick up additional lenses, headbands, adjusting screw, and Garny Lens Defogger and Cleaner Kit.

There are so many styles of Halcyon goggles available, you should be able to find just the vintage look you're going for in a comfortable style.

While it may come as a disappointment that it is not easy to order a pair of Halcyon prescription goggles just as you need them, Halcyon fans who need vision correction can take solace in the fact that the lenses can be taken out and replaced with what you need or want. Before ordering your goggles, make sure that the pair you like will allow you to have new lenses inserted and that you know of an optical shop or lab that can do the work for you.
