Top 10 swimming goggles

Swimming goggles are glasses without a nosepiece with which you can see underwater and prevent eye irritation, for example from chlorinated swimming pool water.

NOT for Scuba or Freediving

These goggles are only suitable for swimming on the surface!

The first model for competitive swimming was featured in an advertisement in Swimming World magazine in 1968. The advantage of swimming goggles is that you can exhale through your nose while swimming.

Correct putting on

To put them on correctly, ensure that the glasses are placed on the eye area with both hands and then the headband is pulled over the back of the head. In the opposite case, the half-shells could snap back through the elastic band if they slip and possibly cause eye injuries. To remove it, you should therefore first pull the elastic band from the back to the front and then remove the glasses.

Lenses

Schwimmbrille Gläser

The lenses of swimming goggles are usually made of polycarbonate. The crystal-clear, almost amorphous, thermoplastic material is free from plasticizers and does not outgas. However, these are very sensitive to mechanical stress and scratching and should therefore be kept in a hard box if possible.

Prescription Goggles are available for near- and farsighted!

Material

New innovative materials and construction methods reduce water resistance and improve visibility. Increased comfort and durability.

Nose bridge

With some more expensive and more advanced swimming goggles, the nose bridge can be exchanged for narrower or wider bridges, depending on the size of the nasal prongs.

Head band

Schwimmbrille Kopfband

The headband is made of elastic rubber and is best divided into two pieces at the back of the head in order to attach one of the straps high and the other low to the head to ensure a stable hold of the goggles.

Silicone seal

The swimming goggles should have a silicone seal on the lenses in order to have a good seal against water.

Sweden goggles

Arena schwedenbrille

Sweden goggles are special swimming goggles that are mainly used in competitive swimming and have very low water resistance.

It consists only of two polycarbonate hard plastic shells, which are connected with a rubber band and a plastic tube as a noseband, and is therefore very easy to adjust. After a while in the water, the elastic becomes porous and needs to be replaced. These kind of googles are cheap to buy.

Sweden goggles have a hard rim and no seal. Therefore it fits very well, but is not comfortable and compatible for everyone.

Bigger Lenses

People who do not like small goggles or the silicone seal near the eyes you are in luck there are also alternatives on the market. These swimming goggles seal the face with a silicone rim.

These swimming goggles are also not suitable for scuba divers, freediving or snorkeling!

Storage box

Arena schwimmbrillen hartschalen box

Hard boxes or hard cases are the best for storing your swimming goggles. The inside of the boxes are mostly covered with fluffy material and scratching your goggles inside the box is almost impossible! It is also protected from being squeezed by the weight of other objects.

As an alternative, microfiber bags, which are often included, are not recommended.

Care instructions

Cleaning should be done with clear, cold water. Swimming goggles are provided with an anti-fog coating on the inside by the manufacturer. This does not allow drying – not even with a microfiber cloth. Over time the effect wears off, instead you can use special sprays or saliva

Difference between swimming goggles and diving mask

Swimming goggles are not a diving mask! The diving mask can be filled with air at any time under water through the nose pocket to prevent mask squeeze (barotrauma). Diving down creates an increased pressure in the diving mask, which can be compensated for by exhaling through the nose into the Masks nose pocket.

This pressure equalization is not possible with swimming goggles, which is why they are used only for swimming on the water surface and not for diving. Swimming goggles should never be used to submerge to prevent Mask squeeze (barotrauma) of the eyes. The negative pressure that arises when diving in swimming goggles can lead to ruptured blood vessels in the eyeball or even to a detachment of the retina.
