Contact lenses for Watersports

Night lenses are the hot new invention that’s creating a buzz, particularly in the watersports community. Glasses and contact lenses just don’t play well with water. They’re especially problematic when you’re engaged in a watersport that suddenly hurls you into the water at breakneck speed during a wipeout, causing your eyelids to turn inside out or getting splashed onto your glasses or lenses, leading to a sudden loss of vision at the worst possible moment.

Now, picture this: a lens that you insert at night before drifting off to sleep and remove first thing in the morning, granting you perfect vision. There’s no need for glasses or daytime lenses throughout the day, and laser eye surgery need not be your only recourse. Then, you’re ready to hit the water for swimming, sailing, surfing, carving, jumping… and yes, even wiping out, rolling, flipping, capsizing, or getting munched – all without anything in your eyes. You can even open your eyes underwater or in the shower afterward, without the worry of being stranded at sea without your specs or losing a lens in the deep blue.

Does it sound too good to be true?

Night lenses changed my life | Niki | Student nurse, paddleboarder

Meet Niki, a student nurse hailing from the breathtaking Outer Hebrides. Residing in such a stunning part of the world, she’s an avid lover of the great outdoors. Niki kindly shared a selfie video with us while she was out paddleboarding, just to let us know how much her night lenses have transformed her life. Gone are the days of dealing with the hassle of taking off her glasses or donning prescription goggles every time she wants to paddleboard or take a swim. And if an accidental tumble into the water occurs, there’s no frantic scramble to shut her eyes in fear of losing a lens and finding herself stranded without clear vision. With nothing in her eyes or on her face, all Niki has to do is soak in the beautiful surroundings and savor the view!
