Night Lenses – Swimming
No Contact Lenses – No Glasses – No Laser Surgery
Perfect vision for short sighted Swimmers in New Zealand – without glasses, day contact lenses or laser eye surgery
This is probably one of the most common responses when we ask, “What’s the best thing about night lenses?”
If you’re a water enthusiast, particularly someone who loves swimming or engaging in watersports, then night lenses just make sense. Glasses and daytime lenses? Well, they don’t quite cut it. When you talk to night lens wearers (you’ll find a few sharing their own experiences below), they often wonder why folks who regularly swim or indulge in watersports continue to put up with the hassles and inconveniences of glasses and daytime lenses. With night lenses, you simply pop them in before bedtime, remove them in the morning, and enjoy flawless vision all day – no need for glasses or daytime lenses. Plus, you revel in the freedom of swimming and watersports without anything on your face or in your eyes, and yes, you can open your eyes underwater!
Imagine a world where you no longer have to purchase prescription goggles, remember to bring them, deal with the hassle of putting them on, suffer from impaired vision when you take them off to change, or constantly battle with fogged-up lenses. Prescription goggles may be fine for those intense fitness swims, but they’re not the most social choice for a leisurely dip with friends or some poolside fun with the kids. And if you’re a parent supervising children in the pool, having clear vision is a must. Plus, just imagine the freedom of being able to open your eyes underwater and see everything clearly!
On the Beach
Envision a world where you can surprise your child during sandcastle building, scoop them up in your arms, and dash together into the sea without worrying about losing a lens, your glasses falling off, or getting salt smears. No need to fret about sand finding its way behind your lenses when the wind blows, or suffering from stinging eyes due to suncream sweat. And if you wear glasses, there’s no annoyance of them slipping down your nose from sweat or suncream.

Night lens wearers don’t have any of this. It’s as simple as that really. Listen to the stories below.

ELITE SPORTS | NIGHT LENSES vs DAY LENSES
If you compete at an elite, or high amateur level, the advantages of night lenses over day lenses are clear. Essentially you have the same lens routine – a daily insertion/removal – but having perfect sight with nothing in your eye to worry about when you train and compete can make the difference between wining and losing. Double World Champion Cat Morrison, Olympian Chris Walker-Hebborn are two of many who attribute part of their success down to night lenses and recommend all elite sports people to switch. “If you can use night lenses, as an elite performer, it doesn’t make sense to continue to use day lenses”
“In the semi-final of the European Championships my day lens folded in my eye under my goggles. A couple of times I lost one, or would race with only one eye in, which didn’t help. I have 52 seconds to prove a point. The last thing I want to panic about are my lenses. Night lenses are a game changer. I couldn’t imagine my life without them now”
