If you don't have a tight budget you can just go with a top model from like any brand, pick the ones that fits your head and helmet best or just that pair that you like most.

Personally I like Vonzipper, but it depends on your price range. VS comes with 2 lenses for night and day skiing usually. That really depends whether your home mountain provides night skiing. I have been very happy with my VS googles tho.

Try them on with your helmet. If the goggle doesn't fit your face well it will suck.

Anything that's not Scott. Expect to pay a fair amount of money for a good pair of goggles. It's well worth it. Go to a ski shop and take your helmet and try on all the goggles they have with your helmet to see what ones are compatible. Some goggles don't work with some helmets. Beyond that if you get good quality goggles from a reputable company (Smith, Oakley, Giro, etc) it is extremely unlike they will brake from anything other than a hard impact or being taken very bad care of. A bigger concern is lens color. Dark lenses are great for bright days of course but for flat light it's tricky. Smith Sensor Mirror and Oakley HI Yellow are the best options for flat light.
