    Amazing

    My son loved these they are easy to assemble and love the fact you can get different rx in both eyes to match his glasses as close as possible.

    Hello Mary
    I am sorry to read that the B&S goggle was not a good fit for you and leaked.

    May I ask if you managed to attach the seals fully and adjust the nose bridge as it has three notches on?
    There is an assembly video here to help;

    https://www.prescription-swimming-goggles.co.uk/products/b-s9492-shell-kit-swimming-goggles-including-prescription-lenses

    Assuming the goggle is intact, it could just be that face and eye socket shapes and sizes do vary.
    We always recommend trying them on at home first especially if you do decide to purchase another pair.

    When you lean forward, there should be a couple of seconds of suction, when the lens is held against the eye.
    There is more about how to do this in our fitting guide;

    https://www.prescription-swimming-goggles.co.uk/pages/fitting-guide

    We also cover which goggles are best for smaller/larger faces here;

    I do hope this helps, our aim is to offer a choice of prescription goggles to all swimmers for eye health and water safety reasons.

    Bad service

    I got the goggles. They had to be self assembled. I could not get the plastic rim between the lenses to fit so called the number. They suggested to return the goggles and they would assemble it for me. I waited for a week. No response. Next thing I know they have refunded the money to me. I didnt want a refund, just wanted my goggles to be assembled.

    Hello Monaaz

    Thank you for your feedback. We try to make clear on the website they are supplied as a kit that needs assembly.

    Having offered to put them together for you, we can only apologise for this mistake and processing it as a refund. I believe we have already sent a new invoice to pay so that we can process and put together a pair for you.

    Pleasantly surprised!

    I didn't have great expectations for these prescription goggles considering the price and they weren't my exact prescription, I just chose the off the shelf that were closest, but I was really impressed and they did the job I needed them to which was allow me to use the slides at centre parcs and see where I was walking without my glasses around the pool. I didn't realise they would come in pieces and I would have to assemble them but it was easy to do. I wish I had have got some years ago!
