Today, I've been modifying an old pair of civilian 'reactions' glasses. I never really got on with them off the bike, and they were too wide for my face, but cycling seems to be a good application for them.
They always sat a bit low, so I've cut 2 thin strips from (the width of) an old rubber shim that came with a bike light mount, and superglued them into the bridge of the glasses - they're plastic frames, no 'nosey' bits. It's raised the lenses up by about 4mm, which is enough to make them work even in a very aero position.
And I have some rubber bits on the arms as well, to 'grab' behind the ears.
Waste not, want not, etc.
