Hi,
I will soon be spending 6 months on a boat while I train to instructor level. My main concern is vision. I am shortsighted, and normally wear glasses rather than contacts. Went diving last year and lost a lense as soon as i got some water in my mask, which is a concern to me vision wise and cost wise as at that rate I will have to take endless supplies of lenses with me.
I have been toying with the idea of a prescription mask, but have been reading up on it, and from what I gather only a small part of the mask is made prescriptive. How much does this affect your dive? Anyone have any advice on the pro's and cons?
I need to move quickly on this as we leave in about 5 weeks, from the UK.
Thanks
