Don't For get about Stocking Stuffers!!! 20% off All Accessories through Dec. 15th. Coupon Code CHRISTMAS3. Cannot be combined with any other offers or coupons.

Lens Cleaning

Lens Cleaner is safe for eyeglass use but can also be used on things like camera lenses, computer screens, cell phone screens and more! Makes a great gift combined with a micro fiber cloth to wipe clean. Or try the Spudz. This is a micro fiber cloth that is contained in a small pouch with a caribiner attached. Easily hook it on to your purse, golf bag, camera bag, backpack, etc. for quick access to clean your glasses or other such items. Or try a Combo Pack, Lens Cleaner and Micro Fiber Cloth in one smartly packaged case!

Eyewear Retainers

Stop losing your glasses and sunglasses. An eyewear retainer will keep them around your neck so you'll never leave them out in public to get stolen again. Gorilla Grips fit almost any size of eyeglass temple including hard to fit thick sunglass earpieces. The stretchy rubber expands to fit. Or use a Float Holder to prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the river, lake, or ocean when on the water. Or use your regular eyeglass for activities where you need them to stay on better? Use the Sports Strap. These will keep the glasses on more like a goggle would--tight to the face. Fits on any pair of eyeglasses or sunglasses.

Press On Bifocals:

Quickly turn any pair of glasses, prescription or non-prescription, into reading glasses with Press On Bifocals: Little window stickers that have reading power that you stick anywhere on the glasses to help you read.

Visor Clips

Easily store your your sunglasses in your car's visor with Visor Clips. Makes a great stocking stuffer. Also can be clipped to a belt, purse, or more!

style. And you'll have a hard time losing them when they are always around your neck. Clic's are available in reading powers of +1.25, +1.50, +1.75, +2.00, +2.50, and +3.00.

READERS

CliC readers are a new advance in eyewear with substantial improvements over the traditional solution to reading only glasses. The most innovative feature is the patented magnetic closure. This allows CliC readers to use a combined adjustable headband and neck strap which means not only do CliC readers stay in place while you are wearing them but also hang comfortably when not in use. You will never misplace your readers again. Other features include: Rugged, lightweight construction for ergonomic and long durability. Assorted colors. If you want a specific color, call or email for availability

GOGGLES

Comfort and convenience. Clic goggles are connected to a molded form-fitting head band rather than an ordinary elastic strap. To wear, snap the goggles together via the high powered neodymium magnet located at the nose bridge. To disconnect, just pull the eye pieces apart and hang them around the neck. Clic goggles have been wind tunnel tested to stay together up to speeds of 130mph. Good for motorcycle riding, biking, skiing, Wind surfing (they float!) or anytime you want to control wind.

OCTOBER NEWSLETTER

World Sight Month!

Optometry Giving Sight is a global fund raising organization that specifically targets the prevention of blindness and impaired vision due to uncorrected refractive error - simply the need for an eye exam and a pair of glasses. This organization was first launched in the UK in 2003, followed by Australia and the Netherlands in 2004, the United States and Canada in 2005, and Italy in 2006. In 2009, Optometry Giving Sight launched in Norway, Singapore and Ireland.
Our eyes are the most valued sense. We see the world though our eyes. We learn with our eyes and communicate with our eyes. A person should not be limited by poor vision because they do not have access to eye examination and the glasses they need. At least 670 million people around the world are blind or vision impaired.

Order in the month of October and a A Sight For Sport Eyes will donate 5% of every order to Optometry Giving Sight to help raise the funds needed to deliver sustainable eye care to those in need.

Made in China

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Mon, 23 Apr 2012 22:02:00 +0000

Perfect example of why we choose not to carry a very popular sports sunglasses brand. A customer just sent us his brand name frames to have us make prescription lenses for them. The frame is made in China. He probably paid a few hundred dollars for the famous name brand, but for a product that is made in China.

High quality frames for the optical industry are usually made in Italy or Japan. Some good quality frames come out of Taiwan. But China is probably the lowest quality in our industry. This is fine. We sell frames made in China. But typically the frames we sell in China have lower prices points, usually under $100. But at the price point he paid for these, they shouldn't be made in China. (We should note that we don't carry any low quality products--the products that we carry that are made in China are at least mid-level quality brands).

If you want cycling or running glasses, the first place we point you is Rudy Project. You'll get top of the line quality. Yes that comes at a price. But at least you are paying for what you are getting, top quality frames.

Or if you want to sacrifice high quality for price, we have those products too. We just try to carry brands that have good price to quality relationships. If you have a frame that is made in China, it should have a price that reflects the quality made in China. Versus if you have a high price point on the frame, the reason for that price should be because the products costs are of higher quality, thus requiring the higher price point. It should be a high priced product where you are paying more for the brand name instead of the quality of the product.

It should also be noted that we don't sell mass produced prescription lenses made in China. Again, the quality of this product is so low, an the optics are so poor that if you are using them for any sporting activity, your reaction time will be slowed by the amount of distortion in the lens. Prescription lenses are probably made to industry "tolerance" which means the prescription can be off a certain amount and still be acceptable.

We had a customer ask us to match a price from a company selling prescription lenses for $10. If the lenses cost $10 there is a reason. This is a low grade, probably acrylic lens (not up to optical grade standards in the US), and mass produced in China with low quality control. Again, you usually get what you pay for. We only sell high quality brand name lenses like Essilor or Zeiss. Thus, we can insure you are getting a high end quality product, with high level quality control, prescription lenses that are made to the exact prescription (no tolerance), and minimal distortion.

Here at A Sight for Sport Eyes we specialize in custom make prescription sports goggles. From swimming, biking, basketball, football, to snorkeling we have a product for everyone from no corrections to high power corrections. Unsure what may work best for you, give us a call we can walk you though ordering and make recommendations specifically for our seeing needs.

It's a Vuarnet day today

Vuarnet was a booming brand name from the time it was first released in the 1970's and still is today due to the reputation of high quality make and style. Over the last couple years Vuarnet sunglasses were hard to come by in the United States. Vuarnet is a product made in France and it had gone through several distributors in the last 7 or 8 years. It has been completely out of the US the last few years. Recently, Alain Mikli International acquired 75% of Vuarnet's parent company, Sporoptic Pouilloux in 2009 the Vuarnet line was updated. This year (2012) Vuarnet re-launched their eye wear collection and made the Vuarnet product once again available in the united states. And they are here to stay. Since Alain Mikli is not a US distributor but rather an owner, all the problems that the different distributors had (warranty issues, going in and out of the US, etc.) are gone. The product will carry the high quality of the Alain Mikli brand along with great customer service.

Because Vuarnet is a recent comeback brand for us here at A Sight For Sport Eyes we currently do not have the product up on our web page. To check out the 30 new styles divided into three segments- lifestyle vintage, dynamic (sports oriented) and extreme sports go to www.vuarnet.com

We can take phone and chat orders only right now. Look for Vuarnet to launch online with our new website redesign sometime next month. To place an order now, give us a call at 888-223-2669. (note some styles are currently still on backorder but any preorders will have the same discount)

Order in the month of April and receive 10% off your Vuarnet purchase.

Citilynx

The Citilynx lens is an exclusive only to Vuarnet and is new to the collection. This lens was designed to offer visual comfort. The Citilynx lens is a category 3 protection mineral with high quality scratch coating plus heat and abrasion resistance. Interior anti-glare coating increases visual comfort and a two toned blue silver mirror coating reflects the rays of the sun from above and below.

RX-able?

Yes the Vuarnet line still remains prescription available. However, Alain Mikli (new owner) does not have the "Authentic" Vuarnet prescription program set up now. It is something they expect to add in the future. But we continue to use our local lab to make "Vuarnet like" lenses to replicate the lens as close as possible. However, glass is only available in the PX-2000 and PX-3000 and Citilynx lens colors. The Skilynx lens can be done in Trivex (same optical clarity, lighter weight, just not the scratch resistance of glass--but scratch coating can be added).

For more information about prescription Vuarnet give us a call at 888-223-2669 or reach us on our chat located on our web page.

Who better to ask about sunwear performance than athletes who use sports eyewear every day—and rely on it to enhance their performance? Here, EB checks in with three professional athletes to get their take on what makes their sunwear just right.

ANDRE ETHIER, MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL

A lefty, this two-time All-Star outfielder has been playing pro ball with the Los Angeles Dodgers since 2006. He set a new Major League Baseball record in 2011 for a 23-game hitting streak in the month of April. His awards include a Gold Glove award in 2011 and a Silver Slugger Award in 2009.

EB: Why is superior optical performance critical to your sport?
ETHIER: Hitting success in baseball is all about your ability to see it, read it, and then apply a quality swing.

Sharp vision, color contrast, and detail are essential to see the pitcher's release point and quickly identify the rotation for type of pitch and location.

Frame design is always critical … not only for comfort, but wrapped, superior, and clean periphery vision is critical. My polarized sunwear combines all of these elements.

EB: Which sports sunwear style are you wearing the most right now?
ETHIER: I'm batting and playing in the outfield in Kaenon's Beacon style. I usually use the darker G12 lens tints in the outfield and switch to their lighter G28 tint when batting.

EB: What are the key features that enhance your performance?
ETHIER: The lenses I currently wear are the sharpest, most detailed lenses I've ever worn. This is the most critical feature for me. The fit and function of the frame I wear is excellent. I also love the style and like wearing a performance street design instead of the traditional jock look.

EB: Which lenses work best for your sport and why?
ETHIER: I prefer the Gray 12 (darker G12 tint) when in the field. I'm able to pick up the ball off the bat from my position in right field, track it through the stands and seats in the stadium, up into the bright sky, through the sun, and back down. The G12 is dark but not too dark.
If it's overcast in the field or a shadow creeps over the hitter and home plate, then I might switch to the lighter G28 tint. I definitely switch to the medium Dark Gray 28 when hitting. I like the very natural tint of this lens, but it picks up all the detail and contrast I'm looking for.

RYAN SABGA, PRO CYCLIST

This professional road and track cyclist is the current National Road Race Champion. A member of Black Dog Professional Cycling, he is a National Team member plus a Six Day and World Cup racer on the track. Since returning to the sport of cycling after a five-year hiatus due to a shattered pelvis, he has earned four medals, all silver or gold, in U.S. and Trinidad and Tobago national championship competition.

EB: Why is superior optical performance critical to your sport?
SABGA: Wind and light can be major distractions when you are trying to focus on giving your maximum effort. This is especially important if you wear contact lenses, as I do. Not only do the right sunglasses help keep your lenses from drying out, but the correct tint and colors on the lenses help keep you relaxed. There is nothing worse than having to squint and wipe your eyes when you're navigating through a pack of riders at 55 kph.

EB: Which sports sunwear style are you wearing the most right now?
SABGA: Currently, I am using mostly Rudy Project's Zyon and Rydon II models. Specifically, I use the Multilaser orange lenses for the day and a variety of lenses for indoor and night races (usually racing red, a dark gray, or purple lens for night).

EB: What are the key features that enhance your performance?
SABGA: First, the frames I use fit better than any other frames I've tried. This is partly due to the custom fit of the nose and ear pieces, but the ability to see clearly out of the lenses in a variety of positions on the bike is unsurpassed. Second, the lens clarity is great and the lens shapes provide excellent coverage.

EB: Which lenses work best for you?
SABGA: In day races, I really like the Multilaser orange lenses. The contrasts of the terrain become more visible and you don't have to worry about squinting. For night and evening races on the track, I like something that doesn't obscure colors. This is especially important because in the Six Day races, every team wears a different color jersey and some colors are close. It's important to see the difference as the races can be chaotic at times.

TRAVIS PASTRANA, PRO MOTORSPORTS RIDER

This American motorsports competitor has nabbed X Games gold in several events, including motocross, freestyle motocross, supercross, and rally car racing. Also a talented stunt rider, he was the first to pull off a double backflip at an X Games Freestyle competition.

EB: Why is superior optical performance so critical to your sport?
PASTRANA: Eyewear used for motocross is the most critical and also the most difficult to get right. In a race, you have to have goggles that do a number of things well. They have to keep sand and dirt from getting inside, but still allow airflow. Not enough airflow and the lenses fog and you will sweat more.
It's also very important for the goggle foam to absorb and hold the sweat from getting on the inside of the lens. Finally, the outer lens has to provide a scratch protection (there are lots of rocks and dirt clods being thrown at very high rates of speed from the tires of riders in front of you), especially with tinted lenses, as any type of scratch might distort a rider's vision. This is a problem because in motocross, timing jumps and lining up to ruts exactly is literally a life-and-death situation.

Whether riding a bicycle or motocross, good vision is key to victory—and safety. Above (from top): Ryan Sabga in Rudy Project and Travis Pastrana in Smith Optics eyewear

EB: Which sports sunwear style are you wearing the most right now?
PASTRANA: For road cycling and mountain biking I really enjoy riding with the Smith Pivlock. For motocross, I use the Smith Intake; but, for freestyle, or when it's cold outside, I usually use the Fuel v.2

EB: Which lenses work best for your sport and why?
PASTRANA: A lot of environments that I ride in are too bright to use clear lenses, but a lot of the times it's also a flat light area. Sand dunes are a great example of a place where I would use a gray lens. A lot of people use mirrored lenses, but I rarely use anything darker than gray because it's hard to identify different variations in the sand or dirt. EB

Keep your eyes open!! Christmas Promotions to come. Here at a Sight For Sport eyes we are have our 12 days of Christmas promotion going on. Every couple days we are sending out a new promotion.

Get your Christmas shopping done!

Don't feel pressured, just get the Press On

The press on Bifocals are great for on the go everyday use. No need to worry about carrying around two sets of glasses. The press on bifocals are the same idea as a window sticker. Just place on the inside of the lenses of the glasses you are wearing and read. They are removable and reuse able. From sun glasses to your daily distance use of glasses the press on's can become very useful. From golfing to hiking you may think you don't need that extra power to read but don't go unprepared to read the score card or map to find your way. Press on Bifocals come in most reading powers.

The press-on bifocals can fit on any lens surface including swim goggles and dive masks. You can remove them when you don't need any near vision. They come pre-cut in bifocal segments. However, the rest of the 2" diameter sheet that the segments are cut out of also have the same power built in it. Thus, you can use this "extra" to cut any shape of bifocal segment that fits your needs. You can also use it as a spare for another pair of glasses or if you happen to lose your other set. The segments, though, do stick relatively well and are not that easy to lose. They are ultra-thin lenses (only 1mm thick) so you'll hardly know they are there. Press-on lenses won't harm the "carrier" lens, because hydrostatic pressure makes them cling. Never use any glue or harmful chemicals. Just plain water, that's all. Upkeep is minimal. Warm soapy water keeps them clean. Made by 3M.
