Eyewear for Sports Vision and Safety:

People who are passionate about certain sports and recreational activities often begin to see a need for specialized eyewear, with added features that provide extra protection or vision correction beyond what is found in an ordinary pair of eyeglasses or sunglasses.

Sport sunglasses and performance eyewear can give you just the right tint, protection and design for your outdoor activity.

Diving masks and swim goggles are available to accommodate your eyeglass prescription.

Ski goggles come in several different lens tints, to increase your ability to see bumps and ice on the trail, depending on what the lighting conditions are at your favorite slopes. Many ski goggles are sized so they can be worn over regular eyeglasses.

Shooting glasses for hunters or rifle and handgun enthusiasts need to be extra tough and scratch-resistant, as well as specially tinted to enhance contrast and clarity of vision in the outdoors.

Protective eyewear in the form of sports goggles, made in many shapes and sizes, is essential for sports such as baseball, where a hard-hit line drive can permanently damage an unprotected eye.

Sports eyewear for teens and young athletes is especially important because a large percentage of sports-related eye injuries occur among teens and young children.
Safety glasses and goggles in some work environments, such as construction sites, are required by law. But even if safety glasses aren't mandated, it's still very prudent to wear them when you work or play in circumstances where your eyes are exposed to hazards such as dangerous airborne particles and debris.
