Prescription swimming goggles

Having your swimming goggles fitted

Visually impaired people need to be provided with a visual device that can follow them throughout all their activities.
Unfortunately, water sports such as swimming do not really allow for the wearing of any eyewear.
However, it is possible to have swimming goggles fitted to help maintain clear vision in the water.

Eyewear and water

For good perception and full enjoyment of activities, prescription glasses or contact lenses are essential.
Visually impaired people never take them off during the day to have a full appreciation of their surroundings.
However, there is one environment that makes wearing eyewear difficult: water.
In fact, visual aids don't really go very well with water, whether it's from the sea, the swimming pool or the tap.
On the one hand, prescription glasses quickly get splashed and fogged up when worn in water.
Even the slightest movement can also knock them into the water.
Contact lenses, on the other hand, cannot come into contact with water because of the risk of microbial infection and potential damage.
Yet, like any other sport, water activities require good eyesight.
What's more, some people can't do without vision correction, even if it's just to see, whatever the environment.
So it's important to find an alternative to conventional eyewear to be able to clearly see in the water.

Choosing prescription swimming goggles

As mentioned above, it is not really possible to immerse yourself in water with prescription glasses or contact lenses.
The best way to see clearly in an aquatic environment is then to have your swimming goggles or mask fitted to your eyesight.
Only this type of device, specially designed for underwater use, will allow you to have a clear view in the water.
Your Optical Center optician can easily fit your swimming goggles to suit your needs.
As a matter of fact, prescription swimming goggles can correct both distance and near vision, with several different powers available.
This visual device is accessible to everyone since it can correct any type of visual defect, such as myopia or hyperopia.
Prescription swimming goggles will look just like traditional ones, but with the added benefit of vision correction.
This watersports visual device is designed for maximum comfort and will allow you to enjoy your aquatic activities to the full.
Feel free to ask your Optical Center optician for more information about prescription swimming goggles.
