Coloured Contact Lenses In Sport

March 30, 2009 - PRLog -- The Bournemouth area is well served by opticians and optometrists providing day to day eyesight testing and supplying spectacles and contact lenses for everyday use. However one of them, Perry Optometrists of Ferndown and Parkstone, specialises in sports vision, providing specialised optical services for serious sportsmen and women who aim to compete at the highest levels in their particular sporting activity.

Perry Vision Opticians are now able to supply coloured contact lenses for sports people looking to have the edge over the competition. Sports vision, where the natural eyesight is less than perfect, means being equipped with better than average vision correction. http://www.perryopticians.co.uk/coloured-contact-lenses.html

Contact lenses have many obvious advantages over spectacles for sporting activities anyway. Now the sports vision experts at Perry Optometrists can provide the coloured lenses that can make all the difference to performance.

Research has shown that for fast moving ball sports, often played in variable light conditions, such as football, rugby, tennis or baseball, amber coloured contact lenses improve visibility of the ball and make the field of play clearer.

A grey/green colour is advantageous for sports which often take place in bright sunlight such as golf, athletics, or rugby. In both cases glare is reduced and the lenses filter out 90% of blue light and 95% of UVA and UVB all of which are harmful to the human eye.

Of course like all corrective aids to natural vision coloured contact lenses needs must be accurately prescribed and supplied. Perry Optometrists in both Ferndown and Parkstone specialise in sports vision and in the supply of coloured contact lenses suitable for your particular sport.

It’s long been known that everyday glasses or even contact lenses are no ideal for competitive sports people. Now vision opticians have found the way to provide true sports vision to those whose eyesight needs correction. That’s a huge percentage of the population who can benefit from using coloured contact lenses for sports purposes. http://www.perryopticians.co.uk/coloured-contact-lenses.html

If you play sport and you use vision correction or even if you feel your eyesight, though fine for everyday life, isn’t quite up to the mark for your chosen sport, you can now do something about it. Talk to the sports vision specialists at Perry Optometrists and ask about the new coloured contact lenses. They’ll relieve you of one excuse for not winning!
