Problems
tight silicone hats press on the sides of your normal glasses when you wear them in water.
Some glasses will go rust in water.
You need glasses when swimming in the water for these reasons
1 to protect your eyes from splashes
to see close-up
To see at a distance
To keep your eyes adjusted to your normal spectacles
Goggles over glasses enable you to open your eyes underwater and see fish and take photos and avoid dangers and approaching large fish and boats and pick up coins and lost items and avoid colliding with the swimming pool walls and other swimmers.
Answers
Some large stretchy turban like swimhat has room for glasses without pressing if you are swimming with your head out of water, paddling or doing breast stroke - with your head up (which could give you back ache one swimming instructor told me).
Some goggles are designed like the cheap glasses you can buy which are adjusted for short sightedness or long sightedness.
Other members of my family can manage with non-prescription glasses bought off racks. (Not me, because my eyes are different and a lens suiting one eye does not suit the other one - I can see a menu using them by shutting one eye in an emergency, but no good for preventing headaches.
