Football and Fall

Football and Fall

by Shannen Knight in Sporteyes Blog Posts

As September approaches, the weather begins to cool, the leaves begin to change color, and football kicks into high gear. Every Fall thousands of players begin a new season from Pee Wee to the NFL and every level in between.

Being a high contact sport, football is rated at a moderate level for eye injuries. Yet only a very small percentage of players wear eye protection. Why? Most sport goggles are not designed for use while wearing a helmet.

New Ski Goggles with Built-In Prescription Lenses – No Inserts Needed!

New Ski Goggles with Built-In Prescription Lenses – No Inserts Needed!

Up until now,  skiers and snowboarders who need prescription lenses had to rely on bulky inserts that snapped inside their ski goggles.  Inserts are a great low cost option for most eyeglass wearers.  However, the common complaints we hear daily from customers is that they are "bulky", fog between the lenses (mostly while stopped or on a lift), or provide a limited field of view.  We get asked daily "are there goggles that can have the prescription built into the lens of the goggle?  We are thrilled to finally say "yes" to these customers.  Now there’s a game-changing solution—prescription ski goggles with built-in lenses. A new product has just come out madey by Austrian based Silhouette Eyewear in their "Evil Eye" sports eyewear line. Evil Eye was created to be the ultimate sports eyewear, having multi-functional glasses work for a variety of sports and recreation activities.  It is no wonder that a cutting edge technology brand creates what we've been asking for decades.   The Evil Eye E606 Peaklite Ski Goggles eliminates the need for prescription inserts. Available now at A Sight for Sport Eyes, these goggles are designed with prescription lenses built directly into the shield for a seamless, fog-free experience on the slopes. Why Choose Ski Goggles with Built-In Prescription Lenses? Skiers and snowboarders who wear glasses want options other than inserts.  The Evil Eye prescription ski goggles meets the demand for these customers willing to spend on the highest technology available.   Key Benefits of Built-In Prescription Ski Goggles: Reduces chance of fogging– Unlike inserts, which can trap moisture between lenses, built-in prescription ski goggles will sit further from the face to allow the body heat to dissipate before reaching the lenses. This can reduce the chance of fogging (note nothing can be considered fog free--every person's body chemistry is different--though most goggles will stay fog free while in motion--it is the stoping of the airflow that causes goggles to fog).  Wider Field of View – Prescription inserts tend to be flatter and not curve around the face.  With ski goggles with Rx lenses, you get a more seamless prescription lens that curves with the goggle offering unobstructed peripheral vision. No More Loose or Rattling Inserts – Sometimes generic clip in adapters that are not made for a specific goggle don't fit exactly right.  Thus the adapters that can move around or "jiggle" which can be annoying.  These custom Rx ski goggles eliminate that issue entirely. Custom Fit & Comfort – An alternative to snap in adapters for goggles is wearing OTG or "over the glasses" goggles.  These can be bulky and uncomfortable. Having the prescription built into the goggle provides a streamlined fit without the bulk.   Evil Eye E606 Peaklite Ski Goggles – Features & Specifications These prescription snow goggles are designed for serious skiers and snowboarders who want the top of the line prescription ski goggles without the inconvenience of inserts. Product Features: Slim & Lightweight Siliconized Head Strap – Provides a secure, comfortable fit, keeping the goggles in place during dynamic movements. Lens Ventilation System – Enhances airflow to reduce fogging and ensure clear vision in varying weather conditions. Anatomical Face Foam – Contours to the face for a snug fit, enhancing comfort and minimizing pressure points. Replaceable Narrow Strap – Offers versatility and longevity, allowing users to replace the strap as needed. Prescription Lens Integration – Utilizes a cut-out insert technology, where a hole is cut into the ski goggle lens to place the prescription lens. Currently, this is limited to one shield color (though additional lens colors are available, they may not match seamlessly). More colors will hopefully be introduced in the future.   Includes Accessories – Comes with a microfiber bag, hard case, and protective box for storage and safety. Important Note: The customization process is conducted overseas and requires 2-3 weeks for production. Are Built-In Prescription Ski Goggles Right for You? While the Evil Eye prescription ski goggles provide superior vision correction, it’s important to consider a few factors: Longer Production Time – Each pair is custom-made, so expect a longer wait time than standard prescription ski goggles with inserts. Higher Cost – The advanced technology and precision optics make them more expensive than traditional insert-based solutions. However, for those who want fog-free, hassle-free, and optically superior ski goggles, built-in prescription ski goggles are a game-changer. Where to Buy Prescription Ski Goggles Without an Adapter? A Sight for Sport Eyes specialilzes in sports eyewear and we do our best to stay on the cutting edge of all technology out there. That is why we are proud to offer these new ski goggle options that don't require somthing that goes inside the goggle.   If you’re looking for ski goggles for those wearing spectacles and you don’t want an insert, the Evil Eye E606 Peaklite Ski Goggles are your best option.  They offer the seamless design where the lens is built into the outer shield of the lens.  The lens is large and curved to your face so it will offer a very wide, unobstructed field of view.  The only downside to this technology is that the lens colors are limited right now, and you have a single lens that is touching the outside air which, depending on how hot you run, may make the lens fog when you stop or are on a lift.  This technology also has a hefty price tag so it may not fit everyone's budget.     We also have the Snowvision Magnus or the Snowvision  Ottho which uses similar "cut out" technology.  The difference is that the Snowvision has an internal lens that has the cutout instead of the front lens that the Evil Eye has. The double lens technology on this one may work to combat fog better.  The photochromic (light changing) lenses change with various light conditions. Thus, one lens will serve you for any condition you ski in.   The downside to this technology is the lens is more permanently installed. If your prescription changes, you'll need a new shield and have to re-glue the lenses together.  The lens surface are is also not as large as the Evil Eye lens.

Until now, prescription inserts were really the only option (with some exceptions of products that didn't last long on the market).  While priced for everyone, inserts have their drawbacks and there has been consistent demand for something better.   With the launch of these new products,  you can finally enjoy custom Rx ski goggles that provide crystal-clear vision, superior comfort, and a hassle-free experience.
