neutral  Tony M: I think it might be important to specify 'lunettes de vue', to specifically distinguish them from 'lunettes de protection' / Well, 'eyeglasses' in EN specifically means 'de vue', why shouldn't they be correction goggles?

  -> again Tony, on the website, the example is ski goggles - hardly "de vue" ...

agree  Maximilien Petitjean: Personally I would use "masque de ski" to translate "ski goggles", and so doing we could simply keep "lunettes hautes performances".

neutral  Tony M: I think it might be important to specify 'lunettes de vue', to specifically distinguish them from 'lunettes de protection' / Usually, 'eyeglasses' means specifically for correcting vision.

  -> So in this case, we may say "lunettes de vue" de haute performance?
