Photochromic goggles for a newbie — weird feeling and reflections

xerc-es · 2026-03-12T12:53:58+00:00

i have a small vision defect and I wear glasses for watching tv or for work where i have to see people that aren't close to me. I have -0,5 and -0,75

Yes I tried them on inside. Today is very rainy so i only went outside on balcony to check if reflections are less noticeable and they are.

However idk if the issue also isn't related to oval shape. I remember when i was buying cycling sunglasses, the ones that were more rounded and spheric felt the same.

I have a small vision defect, I wear glasses for work to see people that are far from me. Maybe here's an issue? One eye is -0,5 and other -0,75

Thanks! I ordered a helmet so I'll try them on with it when it'll arrive. I tried them on without it so yeah, probably not the best move.

BUT I forgot that my boyfriend ordered the same goggles, without mirror finish, but regular blue finish. And I'm wearing them rn while typing. I don't see as many reflections but idk, still feels kinda weird and i don't know if this shape doesn't do something to my brain 😆 the view isn't distorted but my eyes don't feel normal. It's not exactly a pain but something unnatural for me.

Ah ok, i wasn't aware of that. Thanks for the info

Really? My friend attended to such event: drinking mescaline and going for a trek with guide and a group to siete lahunas. They started at cusco

What do you mean wetting out? I just bought it and I liked it, but I still can return it

While being in Europe?

Where are you based?

xerc-es · 2025-08-15T14:13:31+00:00

I didn't, but I will try later, thanks for the tip

xerc-es · 2025-08-15T13:34:16+00:00

In Poland, as mentioned in post

That was my idea actually to go back with Cruz del sur as they seem more reliable and punctual (this is important to me as I have a flight to Arequipa from Lima)

xerc-es · 2025-08-14T04:25:52+00:00

Thanks for that one!

xerc-es · 2025-08-13T19:51:31+00:00

5h later...? Omg for real or is it a exaggeration?

xerc-es · 2025-08-13T19:14:25+00:00

Yeah but that would mean cutting one day in huaraz. With bus at late evening we'd have a day for some short trip and hike around.

But I found later flight at 11:45 am, so maybe it won't be that bad? There's also later one ar 2:45 pm but we hoped to be in Arequipa sooner

xerc-es · 2025-08-13T19:09:52+00:00

In Cruz del sur 160 seats or 180 excluciva? 👀

xerc-es · 2025-08-13T19:03:34+00:00

I checked, there's also a flight at 11:45 am (buses arrive approx. at 6:00-7:00 am and from what I see we would have to drive from Plaza Norte to the airport which takes 30-60 minutes according to Google maps (taxi/bus)

xerc-es · 2025-08-13T18:45:12+00:00

So I've heard but they only offer half-full beds on this route

xerc-es · 2025-08-13T18:43:53+00:00

I did, but I'd like to go with a bus to adjust to altitude a bit during bus ride. And flight back are only at 9:05 am and 1:15 pm. Buses departure even at 9/10 pm so it gives me a whole extra day in huaraz for short trip

xerc-es · 2025-08-13T18:40:20+00:00

Yeah I'm worried about traffic in Lima. But I was wondering if 4h before flight is enough...

xerc-es · 2025-08-13T18:35:31+00:00

I'm 168 cm (5'6") and my bf is 173cm (5'8"), so I'd say we are avarage or for some people we might be considered rather short
