Sports vision

We love sports! Do you? Discover why wearing the right glasses makes all the difference, both in terms of performance and protection.

When practicing sports, good vision is essential in order to read the terrain properly. Sunglasses are therefore much more than just a fashion accessory; they are a tool that aids performance. The two essential elements for choosing the right sunglasses are the frame and the lenses: two elements that are inseparable for a perfect combination. Of course, the requirements for frames and lenses are as varied as the sports we play.

What are

sports glasses?

Ideally, sports eyewear frames should be both lightweight and robust. They also need to fit snugly around your face, because sports eyewear means movement. It’s important that they stay in place when you’re moving fast.

If you practice sports outdoors, it is important to protect your eyes from UV rays with appropriate lenses, both in summer and winter.

To find the lenses that are right for you, it’s important to consider your sensitivity to the sun and the sunlight conditions where you practice your sport. The material, protection category, color and coatings of your sunglasses will make all the difference.

Glasses or contact lenses?

As well as protection against the sun, bad weather and objects, you also need to think about vision correction. It’s essential to be able to see well when playing sports.

If you opt for contact lenses, the correction will be made at the eye level. There will therefore be no distortion or instability associated with the movement of glasses. Some lenses even contain UV protection.

If it is difficult or impossible for you to wear contact lenses, there is a wide variety of sports glasses available that can accommodate your prescription. Even if you wear progressive lenses, you will be able to find sports glasses that allow you to practice your favorite sport.
