Bausch and Lomb make gogles that should fit over most glasses, but they are
expensive.

If your glasses aren't too big, some regular goggles might fit over them;
go to a ski shop and try them over your glasses. I use regular goggles
over my glasses whenever skiing--but I have smallish glasses.  One problem:
the glasses fog up sometimes.  Make sure you get goggles that provide good
ventalation BEHIND the lenses of the goggles.  I only have a problem when it
is snowing/raining/very damp and I stop for a while.  Using an anti-fog cloth
on the glasses helps withthem fogging, but the coating on the lens does degrade
visibility somewhat.
