Really good for instrument training

We've found the LFR with nose piece works very well with glasses and provides most of the advantages of the compact foggles type and a larger hood. The plus the case accompanying them has kept them in good shape for many years.

Would not fit with my small prescription glasses. Returned.

This is very cumbersome and does not block the sides out very well even with the extra pieces of velcro on. The velcro does not even really stay on

Q: It looks like the version without the nose piece is the recommended version for people who wear glasses. Is that correct?
