..but when spring skiing comes along,I always just wear my sunglasses.
(I also am a contact lens wearer,and never had a problem with them...even when it is -25 outside!! :)

As a contact lens wearer myself I think goggles are probably the more sensible option BUT I tend to wear sunglasses that wrap around and I've had no problem at all. The main issue, for me, is the light. When it gets darker or if it snows, my sunglasses aren't that useful whereas my goggles have an amber lens and allow me to see better in low light.
As I rule I take both with me if the weather looks suspect.
I think from a fashion point of view goggles are "in at the moment" and sunglasses may suggest you are simply "on a holiday". It's a bit like the helmet debate, too!
But from the contact lens perspective sunglasses do work and I've never lost a lens at speed when wearing glasses.
