I think a nice goggle set for beginners, the Quanum DIY FPV goggle set with monitor. Not with dual glasses, but a single display that shows the live feed from your video/transmitter set (not included). The resolution is 480p (640x480 pixels) and you can use it with one of the 3 lenses it comes it, whichever fits you best. The goggles can be switched between 16:9 or 4:3 aspect ratios. The molded housing is made from EPP foam allowing you to carve and adjust the fit just right to your face and finishing it off with foam strips for a light tight seal.
Specifications:
Monitor screen: NON-Blue screen custom TFT LCD
Screen size: 4.3in (6:9 or 4:3 switchable)
Format: PAL/NTSC supported
Supply voltage: 7~13V
Resolution: 480p
Fresnel lens: 3X and 4X included
Size: 140x95x120mm
Weight: 195g
Please note that a battery to power the goggles is not included and you have to use your own video transmitter/receiver set.
Available for US$ 29.99, available from Hobbyking here: http://hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=53706&aff=5361

Here is a video by RCModelReviews
@Steve I appreciate that, my prescription would mean custom ground lenses plus I don't feel its safe to not be able to not see the model if I have to whip the goggles up and fly line of sight quickly.
Hobbyking posted a build video today. I thought this could be a nice addition to this blog post.
i guess the question is, how does this compare to fatshark, or skyzone goggles? are they even close to the same image quality?
@Rob, this is ransom of success...Thx for your excellent kit ! The only issue I have is that it is impossible to get a 640x480 resolution screen (3.5 inch). If you can get me one, I'll buy it from you!
@Gary
Thanks Gary, guess I join the elite members of which there are many, who relentlessly get copied by HK.
We must skype soon !
Rob, Flyingwings
ive taken a punt and ordered one...could be a good passenger unit if its not better for glasses wearing
@Rob, it is easy to diy and it works:
Me old mate Rob has finally had something copied by HobbyKing! Several of his wings and gliders have been copied by other cutters.

Here's the FPV Labs thread about them

I would rather see the occasional snow from an interrupted feed than a black/blue screen (which then decides, on its own, when the signal is strong enough to let me see it again)
With HeadPlay we even load an older firmware just to prevent the blue screen.
