Sports & Vision<br />
by Kerry Taher, New Vision Opticians<br />
Do you wish you could cut a few strokes off<br />
your golf score?<br />
Having trouble returning<br />
your tennis partner’s serve? Does your child<br />
always seem to be just a few steps away<br />
from the football? Vision, just like speed and<br />
strength, is an important component in how<br />
well you play your sport.<br />
Eye protection should also be considered by all sports people, especially<br />
in certain high-risk sports. Thousands of children and adults suffer sportsrelated<br />
eye injuries each year, with squash and paintball accounting for<br />
a very large part of this group. Nearly all of these injuries could have<br />
been prevented if the proper protective eyewear had been worn. Years<br />
ago, there was some resistance by children to “looking funny” when they<br />
wore protective eyewear but today, sports goggles are an accepted part of<br />
everyday life, similar to the way bike helmets have become the norm.<br />
Impact resistant materials, initially used for astronaut helmet visors and<br />
space shuttle windshields, are now widely used as lightweight but durable<br />
spectacle lenses, and are particularly effective for eye protection in sport.<br />
Polycarbonate lenses, for example, are up to 10 times more impact resistant<br />
that standard plastic or glass lenses and they also offer further protection<br />
from UV light.<br />
For outdoor sports, appropriate sunglasses are a must, and some sportspecific<br />
designs may even help you improve your game. There are a<br />
variety of tints available to improve on contrast in golf, clay pigeon shooting<br />
and skiing. Almost every option is also available with spectacle correction,<br />
even swimming goggles.<br />
Each sport has its own specific risks and visual demands so just ask your<br />
optometrist what would be best for your favourite sports.<br />
