Alright cause, my mom asked me to solve her problem with her goggles so i came here to ask. Basically as you can see the goggles got flattened over the summer and the lens is weirdly warped. She want me to see if i can either pop it out and fix it or find out if you can find replaceable lenses. This is where you guys can hopefully help, i need to know how to fix this problem, and if its possible to pop out the lens and reshape it(somehow?). I know these goggles are cheap and she should probably should get a new pair but guys she doesn't care bout how they look just that they work. So hopefully you guys can help me out here. I am not sure what model they are but they're Uvex, from two or three years ago. Thanks a lot guys.

As you see on the right side of the picture the goggle and

lens is bent inwards.

its gonna be very hard to get thsoe goggles back to the way they were - they have obviously remoulded

do her a favour and buy a good pair of second hand goggles from good old NS!
 
Im sure it could, but depends if the frame is warped as to whether or not the new lense will fit as it is supposed to

A shop would probably charge you $20 for a new lens and there is no guarantee that it will work

I'd give her a new xmas present!
 
I had some crappy old uvexs a few years ago that did the same thing. We called them the "Beer Goggles" because the warped lens messed up your vison... they were a ton of fun haha
 
yea man, i second the christmas idea. theres NO way that can be fixed. a shop PROBABLY could order a new lens and everything (they wouldnt have that instock), but by the time that all was said and done (shipping and everything), youd be out more than the cost of a new pair of goggs. take those into a shop, and pick her out some mid-priced goggles with a similar fit. shed have new goggles, and you wouldnt have to worry about what to get her. also, was that near anything that put out heat? or exposed to sun? i cant really think of anything else that would do that.
 
replacment lenses cost nearly as much as the google usually, get her some smith anthem's and she'll be stoked out of her face
 
i have some brand new uvex goggles with a flat light lense. it also has like a double lense so they don't fog up
