That's exactly what I have to do. I know ESS also offer this option, but have had even less luck. But my glasses fit under my ESS no problem and I have a goggle fan in those. The 800's are just a lot less bulky and many fields I play won't allow the Uvex glasses I usually wear. Not because they won't take the impact (tested them with an MC51 shooting +400fps @ point blank range for ten shots. Kinda scratched the lens on one side, nothing more), but because they aren't "sealed". There is a slight opening around the edge. The bolles are pretty much sealed. The RX adapter for the Bolles fits under the nose piece, just take it out, put in the adapter and put the nose piece back in.
