Doug Lloyd writes: "Keeping sprayskirts and prescription glasses secured has been a bigger issue. Man, I hate wearing glasses for this sport! And I've had contacts washed out too." I currently use a pair of plastic rimmed glasses (no metal to corrode in salt water), with a folded neoprene retaining band held onto the arms of the frame by a tight whipping. I then attach a short length of bungy looped at each end, and clip this to my PFD. A fiddly arrangement, but when turbulent water removes my glasses in surf, they are there dangling on the end of the bungy cord ready to be retrieved. Has anyonel come up with a good arrangement for glasses? Is laser eye surgery the real solution?
