Ski Glasses & Goggles for Kids
When children ski, they often encounter unexpected challenges such as a slip or crash into another child on a crowded run, so proper eyewear for skiing is very important. As children are still developing the ability to coordinate and become aware of their surroundings, providing them with proper ski goggles or glasses will allow them to be protected, comfortable, and confident while skiing. Here is a list of features that should be included when purchasing ski eyewear for kids:
- Eyewear for kids should be constructed of durable materials and have prescription lenses that withstand impacts from altitude changes, slides, bumps/slips, collisions with other skiers, and other active ski conditions.
- Comfortable & secure changeable fit that does not require a lot of adjustment while still allowing the child to connect with their helmet.
- Lightweight & durable lens material (e.g. polycarbonate, etc.) - allows for minimal additional weight but provides strong protection for kids’ eyes.
- Ski glasses and goggles with anti-fog and ventilation for clear, fog-free vision in cold, snowy and changing weather.

How to Choose Ski Glasses:
- Lens Tint Selection. There are multiple hues of lenses that work well in varied conditions. For example, yellow or rose colored lenses are ideal for dim conditions; darker lenses are perfect when the sun is shining brightly upon you. Photochromic lenses are ideal for changing weather..
- Anti-Fog System. When using the goggles during vigorous activity, the goggles should contain double lenses, have an anti-fog coating applied on the surface of the clear lens located closest to your face, and provide proper ventilation for moisture to escape.
- UV Protection. When there is a very high level of sunlight, it directly reflects off the snow. Therefore, you need to have complete protection from UV rays, which means the lenses should provide UV protection to a level of 100%.
- Helmet Fitting. When you wear the goggles on your face while wearing a helmet, they should fit snugly around the perimeter of your helmet and stay securely in place while you are skiing.
- Field of View. If you are skiing with other people and want to see them out of the corner of your eye, you will want to purchase larger goggles with wraparound lenses for better peripheral vision than would be provided with smaller size lenses.
- Choose the Right Prescription. If you wear prescription glasses or contact lenses, you will need to purchase prescription ski goggles or OTG (over the glasses) goggles.
