Default goggles & contact lenses

I didn't want to hijack the recent goggle thread -

does anyone wear their soft lenses while swimming? Is there a style or brand of goggle that would be preferred by a lens wearer - or is this all not an issue these days with today's goggles?

I don't think there is a problem wearing contacts with most goggles on the market. I had a lane partner that used corrective goggles. I thought it was a bit much since I own different pairs for sunlight and indoors. My eyes aren't that bad anyway.

I have worn contacts with various brands of goggles, and have not had any problems. My favorite and most durable goggles have been by TYR.
