Differences Between Sports Sunglasses And Regular ...

Many sports enthusiasts ask if it's okay to wear regular sunglasses when playing outdoors. Our answer is usually yes, of course. But sports sunglasses are a better choice for outdoor sports, both in terms of design and experience.

1. The lens color is lighter - to avoid visual interference

Generally speaking, sunglasses lenses are darker than sports sunglasses, which can cause visual interference when playing sports, as well as damage to the eyes. Dark glasses not only make vision darker, but also make the pupil larger. The more UV light passes through the pupil area, the greater the scope of damage to the lens and retina, which can easily induce glaucoma and cataracts.
Sports glasses can absorb a certain amount of infrared and ultraviolet light through different lens colors. They can be very effective in reducing the intensity of light.

 

2. Non-slip nosepiece and nosepad - a more secure fit

The nose pad and temple of the sports sunglasses are made of soft rubber pads, which fit into the crevices of our skin and provide a good hold during sports. Even if there is sweat or rain on the skin, it can play a non-slip role, so you don't have to keep holding the frame because of the shaking. And the nose bridge of ordinary sunglasses is a one-piece design, not necessarily suitable for everyone's nose bridge.

3. Curved frame - blocking side reflections

The biggest advantage of curved surface is to block UV rays and glare from entering in a 360-degree all-round way without any dead angle. According to scientific research, about 30% of UV rays will enter our eyes from the side. So wrap around sunglasses can provide full UV400 protection.
