Sports Sunglasses are spectacles designed specifically for use during physical activities, outdoor games, and sports. They are intended to streamline the on-field experience of an athlete by offering exceptional vision, colour contrast, UV and glare protection, impact resistance and comfort. Sports glasses can be both prescription and non-prescription. Lastly, you can find customised sports eyewear for different game types, such as basketball, cycling, running, etc., - each with its unique features.
Protection from Physical Harm
The risks of being physically harmed or sustaining an injury are always present in sports. Whether you are a professional athlete or an enthusiastic player dabbling in sports for personal satisfaction, the prospect of getting hurt is equal for everyone on the field. Therefore, it is essential to protect your sensitive organs from any physical injury by wearing face masks, prescription sports goggles, eye shields, etc. The polycarbonate lenses and impact-resistant frames of sports glasses protect you from blows to the sensitive eye region.
UV Protection
Most outdoor sports take place under the harsh glares of the sun. Thus, playing a game under harsh sunlight for prolonged time periods can cause eye strain, and increase the risk of vision problems like age-related macular degeneration (AMD), cornea damage, cataracts, etc. Therefore, it is crucial to avoid excessive exposure to the sun's UVA and UVB rays by opting for sports glasses with UV protective coatings. In addition, you also have the option of considering sunglasses that come with a dark lens as opposed to a transparent one.Along with UV protection, the right sports glasses will also shield you against the distracting glare of the sun. They can hamper your performance on the field, and therefore choosing the right eyewear with anti-glare properties is very important.
Improved Visual Contrast
The third benefit of using sports glasses or prescription sports goggles is an improvement in visual contrast. As we all know, outdoor games can be played in clear daylight, foggy conditions, and rainy days. Therefore, you must enjoy crystal clear vision for enhanced performance and a reduction in injury risks.High-quality sports spectacles are affixed with anti-reflective coatings, polarisation, and tints, that help keep the vision clear and minimise the amount of glare reaching your eyes while minimising colour distortion and maximising contrast. For instance, if you are a tennis player and are unable to follow the ball on the field because of the enmeshing of the colour of the surroundings and the tennis ball, your performance is bound to falter. However, prescription spectacles and sunnies with tints and polarisation enhance the contrast and visual acuity so that your game is on fleek, always.
Protection against Debris
Several sports of today's times, such as football, cycling, volleyball, etc., are extremely fast-paced and adrenaline-inducing. So, there is a high chance that rogue insects, debris, dust, and other elements might come in contact with your eyes, without you even having the time to dodge them. Even a speck of dust entering your eyes can have catastrophic consequences. Therefore, precaution is pertinent.Sports glasses and prescription sports goggles act as a shield against harmful elements coming towards your eyes. Thus, you can focus on your game, while the impact-resistant and crack-resistant glasses protect your vision.
Boost Performance
Last but not least, sports glasses also help boost your performance on-field. A victory is always a sweet and memorable experience for every athlete, whether they are experienced or amateurs. But, when practical aspects like glare, discomfort, and debris hamper your performance, the chances of winning go down even. In such a context, sports glasses emerge as the knight in shining armour.
What are the Applications of Sports Sunglasses
Soccer
Imagine running at full speed to chase something you can't actually see. Soccer deals with the simultaneous problem of having to see clearly, and potentially looking almost straight into the sun to do so. Prescription sunglasses and goggles are valuable for any position on the field, but become especially important for goalies. Reaction times are within fractions of seconds, which is only possible if you have perfect vision and protection from sun glare.
Tennis
Take everything mentioned for soccer above, and multiply it. Tennis balls are faster, and tend to be higher up in the air than their larger counterparts. What's more, you often have to look up to actually catch them. A comfortable, high-performance pair of glasses can help you easily track the ball and serve, volley, or backhand to its full potential. In fact, they might just be the competitive advantage you need to beat your counterpart in straight sets.
Baseball and Softball
America's past time, along with its more casual counterpart, absolutely require the right type of eyewear. Imagine fielding a ball in the outfield, having to look up after the hitter pops it up, and not being able to track it. A quick out turns into a single or double. Conversely, hitting can be difficult if the pitcher faces just the wrong way. With prescription sunglasses, neither is much of a problem.
Skiing and Snowboarding
Switching gears for a minute. There are, of course, plenty of places in the continental United States as well as abroad where skiing and snowboarding is possible even in the midst of summer. And for that process to happen, prescription sunglasses are absolutely crucial. The snow tends to reflect light, making it brighter and more difficult to see. Only the right eyewear can ensure clear vision.
Fishing
Similar to snow, the sun can easily reflect off water on sunny days. The resulting glare can make it difficult to spot fish, and find out where to cast your line. For casual fishing, that becomes an annoying side effect. But if you fish competitively, that problem is even more significant. Prescription sunglasses, on the other hand, allow you to find the right spots at the right time for an increased chance of success.
Golf
Hitting the links, but looking for a competitive edge? Sports prescription sunglasses might just be able to provide that edge for you. Spotting the right angles, and finding just the right shot, requires as much strategy and practice as anything else. But if you cannot see clearly, none of that strategy and preparation matters much. For the millions of casual and competitive golfers this summer, prescription eyewear with added sun protection could be the key to success.
Key Features you need for a sports glasses
Astm F803 Impact Rating
The ASTM F803 standard is the most stringent of its kind in relation to protective eyewear, and it has been established to ensure that athletes in a variety of sports that include high-impact activities are protected. Volleyball, tennis, paddleball, badminton, squash, racquetball, basketball, lacrosse, baseball, and soccer are some of the sports that are included in this category.
Polycarbonate Lenses
Lenses made of polycarbonate material are extremely resistant to scratches, making them ideal for contact sports. The frames are normally made of polycarbonate or plastic with excellent impact resistance, and they have rubber padding anywhere they come into contact with your face.
Comfort And Stability
If you have an extreme sport, you'll want a pair of frames that wraps snugly around your face. Rec Specs goggles are lightweight and fit comfortably underneath most helmets. The Rec Specs strap features a double slide and is easily adjustable.
Grey &‘Black'
The most popular lens colour. It reduces all light equally, does not increase contrast or alter the colour of objects and is best used in bright and sunny weather. Some manufacturers use the lens colour black instead of grey as this sounds more ‘contemporary' but it is misleading (a true black lens would not be of much use).
Smoke
‘Smoke' is used as the lens base colour when a mirror finish is applied to the lens. It is similar to grey but usually has a brown or blue hue.
AMBER, VERMILLION & BROWN
Popular colours that increase contrast (everything in the field of vision will appear sharper), they provide a warm appearance and work well where judging distance is important (like golf). Good all-round colours suited to most weather / light conditions.
Yellow
A light enhancing colour: good for low visibility, dark, hazy and cloudy conditions. Provides exceptional contrast and enhanced depth perception. Not suitable in strong sun or high glare conditions.
Clear
For protecting eyes from impact, dust, dirt or abrasion. Shop our range of safety eyewear.
Green / G15
The Green / G15 lens was first popularised by Ray-Ban and used in their classic aviator sunglasses. It provides a soothing tone to colours, helps cut glare and enhances contrast. Sometimes described as grey-green, it's a good alternative to plain grey for bright sun conditions.
Red, Rose And Orange
These lens colours filter out blue light which causes eye strain. They are high definition and high contrast colours that will make objects appear in much sharper focus. Suitable for most light and especially suited to overcast conditions. Popular with golfers, cyclists, skiers and shooting enthusiasts.
Blue
A fashion colour but also helps to emphasise the colour yellow so useful for tennis players (yellow ball) and archers (yellow / gold bull).
Purple
Purple is now a popular colour amongst clay target shooting enthusiasts. It dulls a green background (such as trees or a grass bank) and helps the user see a black, white, orange or pink clay target better against a darker background. It provides a soothing tone that makes it ideal for extended wear comfort; a good all-round colour for variable light conditions. Golfers will also benefit from wearing purple lenses.
How to Choose Sports Sunglasses
Comfort is the priority for any sportsperson on the field. Thus, it is essential to opt for sports glasses made of feather-light materials. You do not want to have something bulky and heavy sitting on your nose while indulging in a game you love. The best lens materials for sports glasses are polycarbonate, as they are lightweight, durable, and impact-resistant.
The sports monocles you buy must have a snug fit and ample coverage. Your trusty eyeglasses should never fly off in case of an impact on the field. Likewise, if you are dabbling in an underwater sport, you would not want to lose your glasses at a crucial moment. Thus, the best sports glasses have a snug fit and a secure clasp.
The lens colour of the prescription sports goggles you choose must be customised as per the sports'requirements. For example, if you are into games like beach volleyball, then lens tints like green, blue, and red are ideal, as they mitigate glare and brightness facilitate clear vision and reduce eye strain. Similarly, there are different lens tint requirements for different sports, and our lens tint guide will help you better navigate the process.
The sports glasses you choose should also be equipped with additional features, like anti-glare, anti-UV, and scratch-resistant coatings. These are, in fact, necessities and pivotal to improving your on-field performance.
The main aim of sports glasses is to protect you against impact and keep your eyes and the surrounding sensitive area safe. Therefore, it is indispensable that they are made of strong polycarbonate lenses and durable frame materials like TR90. Besides, your sports glasses should also come with a certain life expectancy, as you would not have to keep buying new pairs again and again.
Sports Sunglasses Features
Protection
Protection is one of the most important benefits of sports glasses, particularly for anyone who participates in high-impact sports like basketball, hockey, or football. Sports glasses are designed to protect the eyes from potential hazards like flying objects, collisions, and UV rays. Sports glasses often have impact-resistant lenses and frames made from durable materials that can withstand the force of a ball or puck. In addition, many sports glasses provide UV protection, which is important for anyone who loves outdoor activities. By providing this protection, sports glasses can help prevent serious eye injuries and allow you to focus on your performance without worrying about your safety.
Vision Enhancement
Sports glasses can also enhance your vision during movement and changing conditions. Polarised sports sunglasses, for example, can reduce glare and improve contrast, allowing you to see more clearly in bright sunlight or on reflective surfaces like snow or water. Additionally, sports eyeglasses can also be customised with lenses that enhance specific colours, making it easier to see a ball or other objects in their natural environment. Some sports glasses even have photochromic lenses that automatically adjust to changing lighting conditions, ensuring optimal visual performance no matter where you are.
Comfort
Another benefit of sports glasses is the comfort level they bring to your favourite activity. Lightweight and flexible frame material, along with a fitting design of the frame, ensure that your glasses stay in place and that no excess weight or pressure is added to the face. Wraparound frames that hug the head provide a secure fit, which can prevent the glasses from slipping or bouncing during movement. Additionally, they may come with features such as adjustable nose pads, flexible temples, and rubberised grips to help keep them in place and prevent slippage as well as offer a customised fit. Without being distracted by your glasses, focusing on and enjoying your sporty adventure is a lot easier.
Prescription Options
If you are in need of prescription glasses, there are many sports glasses options that can be customised to your specific vision needs. Prescription sports glasses can be made to correct a number of conditions and come with either tinted or clear lenses, depending on your preference and the sport you participate in. In addition, they can be designed with wraparound frames or inserts that fit inside the frame, allowing for a secure fit and optimal vision correction. Sports glasses with prescription options offer you the best of both worlds by providing protection and comfort while catering to your specific vision needs.
Process of Sports Sunglasses
The Drafting Process
Whether for prescription or non-prescription sunglasses, the drafting process is where most eyewear production begins. This intricate process requires skilled designers with years of extensive industry experience. These experts begin making drafts based on input from product managers and/or development divisions.
What About The Materials Used
Eyewear frames are mainly made from acetate or injected plastics. However, plastic sunglasses are molded while acetate frames are cut out of acetate planks. Acetate materials stem from cotton which is dried and mixed into cellulose powder. It is then treated with acid to create raw materials which are pressed into acetate planks. This process establishes the cast or mold which will then be used for mass production or specialty sunglasses.
The Final Steps
Once the drafts are completed, the designer(s) get the first prototypes. These are created through extensive handiwork -and the prototypes are created via filing and milling. While it depends on the materials that are used, filing and milling are instrumental in sufficiently modeling the sunglasses for public use. The prototypes are then 3D scanned and design enhancements are made with computer-aided design (CAD) programs.
Clean Your Sunglasses Regularly
Cleaning your sunglasses keeps them in top shape. Dust and sweat can hurt your sunglasses. But cleaning is easy. Always use a soft cloth. A microfiber cloth is the best. It doesn't scratch your lenses.
Handle With Care
Handling your sunglasses correctly is vital to their longevity. It's best to always hold them by the bridge, the part that rests over your nose. This practice can prevent you from touching the lenses, leading to smudging and difficulty seeing. Over time, frequent touching can even damage the lenses. Plus, your fingers might carry oils or dirt that can harm the lens surface. Taking these precautions can also save you from frequently buying replacement lenses online.
Store Them Properly
Storing your sunglasses properly is another key step in maintaining their condition. It's best to keep them in a hard case when you're not using them. Think of it as a cozy home for your sunglasses, providing protection and safety. Why is a hard case so important? It offers the best protection against potential damages. A hard case shields your sunglasses from scratches and accidental drops, ensuring they stay in excellent shape for longer.
Avoid Extreme Temperatures
Extreme temperatures can be damaging to your sunglasses. Both excessive heat and cold can have damaging effects on your frames and lenses. It can bend the frames and hurt the lenses. Consider the inside of your car, for instance. It can get scorching inside on a sunny day. The intense heat can warp the frames and damage the lenses.Similarly, cold temperatures can be equally harmful. They can render the frames brittle, making them prone to cracking or breaking. If the frames bend or break, you might need to replace lenses in existing frames. So, don't let your sunglasses get too hot or too cold.
How do I clean my sports eyewear?
Dry Cleaning
Dry cleaning removes fingerprints and slight staining - for example, with the included sports eyewear textile bag. Careful: do not apply excessive pressure, as the mirrored coating on the lens can scratch easily. If spots cannot be removed entirely, breathe on the lens and wipe again with the bag.
Wet Cleaning
When it comes to wet cleaning, the eyewear is cleaned under running, lukewarm water and, if necessary, washed with a mild soap. Careful: the inside of the lens features an anti-fog coating and should not be wiped down. Do not use solvents or chemical cleaning agents. Always use a clean cloth with a soft surface.
