Scuba mask with lights in the corners

Like those glasses dj's wear (e.g Orbital) except as a mask for scuba use. Ideal for murky, deep or night dives. The battery pack could sit in ones BCD. I googled, I couldn't find, but shirley it must be baked ?

Thanks [po] I knew you'd take pity on me.

Prob is, light source from viewing area tends to reflect off particles and create a haze. Better to have light source away/in large halo around receiving point. ? Use seawater wetcells -aluminum - shut off automatically in ocean.

There are some models with Bright LEDs mounted in the forehead area, but LED light spreads bad under water. Great idea though. One less thing to carry underwater is always a welcome prospect. Would a light on your reg be an option. Seems bulky.?.
