I use ICE with RX adapters at some field games, but most of the time I run my Profile turbofans. Goggles cost me ~$160, RX adapter $30, lenses $0 (insurance.) In my opinion from using big goggles over my glasses for more than a year, my setup is worth every penny and then some.

I would never wear my ICE at an indoor CQB game, have one coming up on the 1st of Dec and I'm not even considering my ICE, sealed goggles or bust.

Also don't forget that bio BB's shatter on impact. That happens with your ballistic polycarb sealing goggles, might get a tiny bit in if you don't have complete sand/dust coverage. With mesh goggles, you just got a face full of shards of plastic and dust with 1.49J of energy behind it. Happened to an Ottawa player at Border Wars. He had non-sealing ballistic goggles and he got an eye full of bio shrapnel.
