        Actually we have a goggle insert that is made just like your eye glasses. The insert fits any of teh JT frames. With some work you might get them to fit other goggles.

        Cal Joe @ 703-491-6505 If you get him your eye glass perscription he can have it ground within a day or so if he has the lens in stock.

        BTW - thats the Pev Proshop in Woodbridge Va

          I have an insert that was made for Bolle ski goggles. They fit perfect in my old JTs. I just modified them to fit in my vforce goggles.

              Above each eye where 3/4 inch long "tabs". I just had to cut them down to about 3/8 inch long (or so, not sure of the actual dimensions). I used a pair of wire cutters. Very simple. I got the orignal "frames" from my eye doctor about 15 years ago. He searched through a HUGE catalog to find something that would work in a paintball goggle. I actually took my goggles in and showed them to him.

                I use the particular lense insert RobAGD is refferring to. They are more then great, they slip right into my JT Flex's. They have not fogged up on me in the course of 2-3 years Ive had them. You can get options from Pevs such as UV protection and even tinting Im now told.
                The greatest part was I gave them my prescription and not 3 days later they were finished and ready to go. All for a more than fair price. Give Pevs a call and they will take care of you.

                  I am HORRIBLY near sighted. I mean I cannot read a nametag on someone more than 6 feet away. I bought a set of JT inserts but I don't have a regular eye doctor, just some guy at sears =) and they tell me they can't make lenses for them! Where can I get some lenses for my inserts? I really don't wanna break my glasses.

                  AGD Did someone call me?

                  You should go to each gun manufacturers forum or call them up. Ask the OWNER of the company why his gun is better. When you get your answers come back here and tell us what they said.

                  You should buy my gun because I have 5000 posts that say I care.

                    I thought of doing something like this with mine since I have the hardest time with contacts.

                      Duck - I would be willing to bet that Joe can get the lens for those if you call and talk to him.

                      PS - Thanks for the props Ho

                          Here is a picture of mine with the inserts. I'm assuming these are the same or similar inserts that Rob can get for you. MUCH easier than glasses.

                              Tried that. Poked myself in the eye 2 or 3 times and gave up. Can't stand touching my eyes.
