Most uncomfortable thing you will ever wear

My eyes are very dry and I bought them to protect my eyes from the wind when cycling. They hold the air well as far as I could tell, but I've never had to ride a bike in them. They are terribly uncomfortable. If you put them directly on your face, the strap will be too low and your ears will twitch unbearably after about 30 seconds, not to mention you'll look silly with those ears sticking out. If you put the strap over your ears instead, the glasses will slide off your face. I have a pretty standard human head so I'm not sure who they were designed for. They fit easily over my glasses, but I have smaller frames so that's not surprising. However, because the lens is far enough from your face to accommodate glasses, the sides cause a lot of distortion and blind spots in the periphery. Not the safest for cycling on public roads. There's also a line in the plastic separating the left and right sides of the lens that shouldn't be there, and because it's so far from your face it's easy to see and distracting. However, the main screen is clean and distortion from it is minimal. I spent about 20 minutes fitting the glasses on my face trying to decide if I could live with the discomfort and its imperfections but I figured if I had to spend that much time fitting them and they still do not getting where I would be satisfactory, the answer is no. I'll either have to accept the wind turning my eyes to raisins or find another solution. In the end I sent them back.
