My yellow lens "fish spotter" glasses have just arrived now and look pretty good for the money. A bit "Ali G", but who gives a toss. They even sent a free pack of "feathers" on 1/0 hooks which might get used for Mackerel at some point

I tried to test their claims that the glasses work under water but I kept banging my head on the ice
