Full Face shields work well over prescription glasses.

Welding hoods that have a flip up lens ( revealing a second clear safety lens underneath ) are great pieces of equipment. The smaller window (viewing port) means you have a smaller impact zone for the eyes (greater coverage), and a much stronger full face shield. Most likely you already own the welding helmet.
