got some super dorky goggles at the local ski shop, they are a $30 pair of scotts and they are made to go over glasses, do the trick perfectly!

Yeah, in addition to those, I think the EG2 will work too, I saw one guy using those with his glasses.

Any oversized goggle with space for glasses will work, electrics work for this

I'm able to fit my Canopys over my prescription Frogskins, however I choose not to for fear of breaking either.

So find something with a big lense like the Canopynor EG2

Contacts, only downside is your eyes may feel dry in the afternoon.

over-the-glasses goggles are good too given you don't have those oversize hipster glasses. Although sometime you can get away with normal goggles. I have Oakley jackknife 4 glasses and My A-frame goggle fits right in. Just hit a shop and ask to try it on.
