Magnified safety goggles?

I wear reading glasses (the cheap reader type). What I’m needing are safety goggles with full lens magnification instead of just the “bifocal” type which only magnify at the lower portion of the lens. Seems like full lens magnification is easy to find in safety glasses but I want goggles. Am I searching for a unicorn?

For shooting or maybe seating primers? I use the Uvex with lens on the top for shooting, the Pyramex googles would be good if the lens was on top but the full lens diopter would be good for cleaning and reloading, at least for me.

Visit a welding supply store and take a look at the "cheater" lenses for electric welding shields. They come in various diopters and may, with some ingenuity, be adaptable to goggles.
