Notes: I have been suffering from headaches during swimming, especially during tougher session which I have attributed to the silicon hat and/or biofuse googles I had been using and the pressure it put on my head. The restriction of blood flow made swimming uncomfortable and I often bailed on sessions because of it.
I have managed to eliminate this problem by changing up my gear. I now use a polyester cap and swedish goggles which I can only describe as a joy to swim in. The lenses sit ergonomically in your eye socket and do not require the strap to be tight to hold them in place. There is rarely and leakage into the lens unless the goggle gets knocked out of place, which is more than can be said for my previous models which leaked frequently. The nose piece offers a range of custom options to suit your taste, with simple piece of elastic or string and a rubber tube if you want a solid nose bridge. I would highly recommend this for anyone suffering a similar problem.
