The best contact lenses for sport

Published by admin at 11:00 am under Uncategorized

Wearing glasses is not really an option if playing sport is your passion, especially if you do a lot of running or jumping.

So contacts are the answer and some of the best contact lenses use a light-filtering tint to improve the focusing power of the athlete’s vision. 

And because they are so good they are often used by people who don’t even need glasses or contacts

The best contact lenses work by blocking specific wave lengths of light which ensures details such as balls appear clearer and make them stand out against the background, giving you that vital edge.

There is also the added benefit of eliminating glare and improved UV protection

These innovative soft disposable contacts tend to come in two main tints;

Amber – ideal for baseball, tennis and soccer

Grey Green – for running and golf

The amber tint helps you to track a fast moving ball by making it LEAP out of the background, whilst the Green tint is used in bright sunlight when you want the ball contour and detail detection to be as crisp as possible, such as golf.  

So with the best contact lenses you get the obvious advantage of improved vision without frames, fit or nosepiece problems; and of course there will never be any lens fogging.

Sports contacts are available for all types of athlete allowing you to see in a way that is not possible through sunglasses or even their natural eye.

But you do need a prescription even if you do not wear glasses or contacts – plano as the eye doctor calls it.

This is because the best contact lenses are made to fit the shape of your eye so the prescription is unique to your individual eyes and critical for comfort and eye health.
