try regular driving goggles like they wear for motocross
that should seal your eyes pretty good

I've been wondering about these: http://www.cocoonseyewear.com/

Alternatively, a pair of military issue combat goggles.

Hey Bob, those prices look almost too good to be real.  Have you tried them?

No, haven't tried them. I wear a full-face to protect my boyish good looks. ;D

I do the same, for the same reason.  ;)  But I often ride with the shield open this time of year, with just my sunglasses protecting my eyes.  For the prices on that site, it's worth taking a chance on 'em.

When it's bright out, I hae prescription sunglasses with sidepanels.  Very effective.  When it's overcast, I use these; http://www.classicgoggles.com/goggles/merchant.mv?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=CG&Category_Code=t2goggles

They are quite comfortable.

I have seem EMGO goggles that are much less expensive, but I seem to remember they have a seam through the middle of each lens ( ? ! ).   I think you can get them through Parts Unlimited.
