Night Lenses – Professional sports

No Contact Lenses – No Glasses – No Laser Surgery

In the world of competitive New Zealand sports, the distinction between gold and silver, first and second place, victory and defeat often hinges on a mere fraction of a second – a blink of an eye. Your reaction time and the capabilities of your brain, body, and eyes at a precise moment can make all the difference.

For many professional athletes, sports glasses, regular glasses, or daytime lenses simply don’t cut it. These options introduce distractions, are prone to the effects of sweat, can be disrupted by forced contact, or generate worries about dislodgment.

Professional sport contact lenses

This is where night lenses, a groundbreaking innovation that’s buzzing in the sports community, come into play. Simply insert your tailor-made lenses into your eyes at night, and natural sight correction takes place while you slumber. Wake up with perfect vision, remove the lenses, and head into competition with impeccable 20/20 sight and unencumbered eyes – no need for glasses, daytime lenses, or even the often-unwanted option of laser surgery.

Night lenses changed my life | Catriona Morrison MBE | Duathlon World Champion, medal winner Triathlon & Ironman

“If you’re a contact lens wearer you risk dislodging the lens and so you think about that. Sports glasses feel sweaty and can steam or smear, so you think about them too. To put a top performance together you need to dot all the ‘I’s and cross all the ‘T’s. It would have been a very different story if I had all that background worry about goggles coming off during the swim or dislodging a lens during a race. All I do now is put one lens in and take one lens out. All done. Nothing in my eyes for the rest of the day and the race. Why wouldn’t you want to control the uncontrollable? So many things are uncontrollable in a race – why not control it?”

“Night lenses have genuinely revolutionised my sports career. It means I can go for a day of competition with zero distraction of eye dry and have a normal life with no need to consider using contacts or wondering whether they will dry out. Everyone at some point wearing daytime lenses has had them move in their eye and felt the ‘grate’. The knowledge that you don’t have that in high performance sport is a huge difference. No difference between what you can see and what you interpret. No compromise. Your vision is your own. I’m surprised more people don’t wear them. The bottom line is that my life would not be in the position it would be if I had continue wearing contact lenses. I would never have achieved so much in mountain biking without the freedom that night lenses give me. Full stop. Seriously – check them out!”
