Nike Contact Lenses MAXSIGHT

is a contact lens specially made for athletes. It is a revolutionary tinted soft contact lens for daily wear that need to be replaced monthly. The lenses provide excellent visual performance benefits that help eliminate distortion and improves field of vision.

Athletes need their vision to be as good as possible. For many sports, Sport Contact Lenses can be used to correct vision as well as add something extra to improve a player’s vision. This can involve tinting the lens. But first, the best vision possible should be attempted using corrective lenses, almost always contact lenses.

What are contact lenses?

Millions and millions around the world wear contact lenses, though you might not know it just by looking at these people. If you’re not familiar with contact lenses, let’s introduce you to these incognito but common little helpers.

Contact lens:

A contact lens is a thin, curved lens placed on the film of tears that covers the surface of your eye. The lens itself is naturally clear, but is often given the slightest tinge of color to make them easier for wearers to handle. Today’s contact lenses are either hard or soft. Most people wear the latter form now, but it wasn’t too long ago that contact lenses were even glass blown!

Types of contact lenses

While contact lenses are still most commonly worn for vision correction, there are also contact lenses for purely cosmetic and novelty purposes. Colored contact lenses can enhance or completely change the hue of your eyes, and costume contact lenses can help create some of the special effects you see on the big screen.

All contact lenses, however, are medical devices, regulated by the U.S. FDA. Prescription contact lenses and cosmetic contact lenses all require a prescription. This is because even common complications such as infection and inflammation might lead to vision loss or blindness. The best ways to help prevent complications include:

Talk to your eye doctor if you’re thinking about contacts
Buy contact lenses from a legitimate source
Keep your contact lenses well cared for and clean
Follow all the instructions around your contact lenses and lens products
Stick to your wear and replacement schedule
What do Sport Contact Lenses do?

Most contact lenses can correct nearsightedness and farsightedness, meaning they can help a person to see up close and far away. The issue in sports is almost always distance vision. Soft lenses that can improve distance vision have been made for more than 30 years, with many different materials and by many manufacturers. Even astigmatism can be improved by some lenses and these lenses are called Toric Lenses.

Why contact lenses for sports?

Vision with contact lenses is more natural. The lenses move with the eyes. There is no peripheral area lacking visual correction. There is nothing obstructed by frames. They cannot be broken and cut or injure the person wearing them. They don’t fog up or get wet. They can also be used along with protective goggles or other suggested safety equipment to protect your eyes from sports related eye injuries.

What contact lenses can athletes wear?

Generally speaking, any contact lenses can be worn during sports. Most of the time, these are soft contact lenses, which are comfortable and fit the eye without causing irritation or falling out.

There are too many different types of general soft contact lenses to list them. They differ in their ability to correct different kinds of imperfect vision. They also differ in the type of care they need. For many, disposable lenses that are thrown away after use are the best choice.

What about rigid gas permeable Contact lenses (RGP or GP)?

These have many of the advantages of soft contact lenses. Because they are rigid, they stay in place on the cornea and do a better job of improving vision. This is especially true for people with worse eyesight that may have astigmatism.

These lenses let in more oxygen to the cornea and don’t dry out, so they can be more comfortable. However, they take time to adapt to. Additionally, they are easier to knock out than soft lenses.

How do Sport Contact Lenses for athletes differ from regular contact lenses?

There are manufacturers that make contact lenses specifically for athletes. One main area of difference is that these sport contact lenses are tinted, and the tints are usually sport specific. While athletes can wear sunglasses outside, the lenses themselves can provide protection from UV radiation while making potentially improving the athlete’s performance.

What is contrast sensitivity?

Contrast sensitivity refers to the ability to distinguish objects against a background. The greater the difference in color or brightness, the easier it is to distinguish objects from each other.

Athletes often have to see balls going by them or toward them at a high speed, and their ability to see in this situation is different than reading an eye chart. There have been studies in the past that indicate that people wearing soft contact lenses may experience decreased contrast sensitivity. That is one of the areas in which sport contact lenses need to improve.

What exactly are Sport Contact Lenses?

It is the addition of tinting that makes these “sports lenses.” The FDA will approve sports lenses if they are made of similar substance and have similar corrective ability to those already in use. The key is the tint.

Most sports contact lenses use either amber or gray-green tints. Baseball, tennis and soccer players often chose amber lenses. Golfers, runners and cyclists often chose gray-green lenses. These are general ideas, but some players choose a different tint.

The Nike Maxsight Sport-Tinted Contact Lens

These lenses are made of polymacon. Maxsight Lenses protect the cornea from greater than 95% of both UVA and UVB absorption, the parts of the light spectrum that can damage the eye. So they protect as well as enhance vision.

Nike maxsight contact lenses makes two colors of tinted lenses. One is grey-green and the other is amber. Some tests have shown that the gray-green may have more effect on vision outside. Maxsight markets the grey-green tinted lenses for golf practice. The amber tinted lenses are said to be better if increasing contrast is needed, under foggy conditions or at sunset.

One small study of 35 football players (in 2007) concluded that the Maxsight amber-tinted lens improved contrast sensitivity but did not demonstrate whether or not this would translate into improved vision during actual games.

Will Nike’s MaxSight contact lenses come back?

At this time, it’s unknown if Nike will begin producing its MaxSight contact lenses again. However, in April, the product went viral on Twitter when the account @StreetFashion01 shared a group of MaxSight imagery, amassing 16 million views to date. Users humorously compared the product to the red-tinted eyes of ninjas in the anime “Naruto,” according to Sportskeeda.

What is Nike doing in the eyewear field today? Nike is continuing its production of athletic eyewear with a range of styles, which are currently available on its website. The brand’s most recent releases include new colorways of its Nike Rave sunglasses, as well as the shield-style Nike Marquee shades.
