No Contact Lenses – No Glasses – No Laser Surgery

Perfect vision for short sighted Swimmers – without glasses, day contact lenses or laser eye surgery

“I can open my eyes underwater when I go swimming!”

This is one of the most common answers to the question “What do you love most about night lenses?”.

If you have a passion for swimming or watersports, night lenses just make sense, whereas glasses and daytime lenses, well, they don’t! When you speak to night lens wearers about this (you’ll find a few below who can share their experiences), they often express surprise that people who swim regularly or participate in watersports continue to endure the hassles and inconveniences of glasses and daytime lenses. Why not switch to night lenses, wake up, remove the lens, and enjoy perfect vision all day without the need for glasses or daytime lenses? It offers the freedom and hassle-free experience of swimming and watersports without anything on your face or in your eyes – plus, the ability to open your eyes underwater!

In the Pool
Imagine a world where you don’t have to purchase prescription goggles for swimming, remember them, deal with the discomfort of wearing them, struggle with impaired vision when you remove them to change or when they fog up, or constantly worry about misplacing them at home. While they serve their purpose for swimming laps during your fitness routine, they aren’t very sociable when you want to enjoy a leisurely dip with friends or play with your kids in the pool. For parents supervising kids in the pool, clear vision is essential. And imagine being able to open your eyes underwater and see clearly!

On the Beach
Imagine a world where you can surprise your child during sandcastle building, scoop them up into your arms, and run with them excitedly into the sea without concerns about losing a lens in the water, your glasses falling off, or getting smudges from saltwater. Picture not having to fret about sand finding its way behind your lenses when the wind blows, or the discomfort of stinging lenses from sweat mixed with suncream, or, if you wear glasses, dealing with them slipping down your nose due to sweat or suncream.

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”
Chris Walker-Hebborn, Olympic Silver and Commonwealth Gold medallist, swimmer
