        Anything is better than nothing when it comes to eye protection, but goggles offer the best protection AND they help you see better in snowey, glarey, or other low-viz situations.

        Protection from what?
        – Eyeball sunburn
        – Windburn
        – Poke-in-the-eye from a putz with a ski pole
        – Other stuff too

            If you have goggles, take them with you and wear them. If you don’t then buy them. Sunglasses may get you by, but goggles are the best.

                    You can get Scott goggles for pretty cheap.  It would probably be easier to get a new pair than replace the lens.  I wear goggles because I wear contacts.  If I go down the mountain without them, my contacts dry up.  No fun.
