Helmet and glasses?

I like the glasses with a straight temple instead of curved behind he ear. Much easier to deal with in the helmet

When I used to have that issue, I switched to the wire frames that gave a little more and was able to work with all those problems. I had multi-focal contacts for a while. I had to give them up because of always fabricating.

Now that I have had the cataract surgery and the yag procedure, don't need anything but sunglasses and readers. Still can't cut a light though.

I use the Bell full face helmet with the large opening. Works pretty well. Haven't had any issue with my glasses, other than the occasional fog up, using that helmet.

Use Simpson Balaclava.

For the budget minded, a Zamp full face works as well.

I used Armani Exchange hard frames with an open faced helmet.
Glasses worked fine.
