Goggles with clear, tinted, colored, photochromic, or mirrored lenses? Or perhaps ones with an interchangeable nose piece or a flexible nose bridge? Those with a strap adjusted by a standard buckle or with QuickFit or EasyFit mechanisms for easier adjustments? What size and color?

So how can you protect your eyes when using public pools?
