Can anyone suggest a low volume mask (for freediving) that eccepts perscription lenses that the manufacturer of the mask can supply.

bikeflip22:its not needed in 2 diff forums..
but here u go (for the 2nd time)
use a scubapro low volume frameless mask..
i think they go for about 45 or 60, there are 2, a "frameless" and a "frameless 2"
ive held, tried on, both.. and they seemed pretty good. i think i might be considering it for my next mask.
there both available at leisurepro.com
theres also a whole list there of low profile masks..
if you call and ask you can ussually get presc lenses for all
hardhat:Sorry for posting twice. Thanks for replying twice.
I wouldn't touch any Scubapro crap if I was paid to. Both of those masks are higher volume then what I already dive with. Also both are single window masks, so to put corrective lenses in them they would have to be glued in, again not what you want (adds wieght). I guess you don't know what freediving (breath hold diving) is. You want a low volume mask that's around 50 or 60 cc, not something that's triple that volume like the Scubapro Frameless masks.
freediver:Hey hardhat,
Here are a few that will accept corrective lenses.
Omer Abyss
Mares X-Vision
Mares Opera
Seac Sub Extreme
H2Odyssey Alpha 2
Some of these may not have the extremely low internal volume that you may be looking for but all can be used for freediving and a couple of these can be found dirt cheap!
