Eyewear to Enhance Your Game, Improve Your Vision, & Keep You Competitive

Athletes are always looking for ways to enhance their performance. Sports glasses protect your eyes with thicker frames or heavy-duty goggles so that you can focus on your passion and pursue it with confidence. Some sports glasses can also improve your vision during specific activities by reducing glare.

How Sports Glasses Protect Your Eyes

Different activities require different gear. We carry a range of safety eyewear ranging from polycarbonate-lenses to wrap-around face shields.

The impact from a small object moving at high speed—such as a golf ball—can shatter the lenses in standard sunglasses. Impact resistant lenses offer protection against such events, keeping your eyes protected.

How Sports Glasses Enhance Your Vision

Polarized lenses reduce glare, making it easier to see when outdoors. Most golf sunglasses use polarized lenses for this reason.

If you require prescription lenses, a pair of prescription sports glasses can help correct your vision while also protecting your eyes.
