Better visibality needed, HELP!

My partner rides an MV-F4s and has a real problem with the top of her helmet opening obstructing her vision while cornering, currently she wears an AGV ti-tech but other helmets she owns have given similar problems due to the extreme nature of the riding position, does anyone know what helmets have the biggest opening for vision (out the top not the sides)?

What helmets do motorcycle racers wear? Their riding positions appear to be very extreme.

No offense intended but are you sure she has the right size helmet? If it is too large the eye port would ride low. Perhaps if she tried a different shape (internal) she might fit a smaller size. Or perhaps bigger cheek pads so the helmet doesn't rotate down. Just a thought.

She is totally squeezed into the small size as it is, it looks ok when she puts it on but when cornering her shoulders/armour push on the back of the helmet and push it forward obstructing her vision
