Many people wear contact lenses for sports only. They appreciate the improved peripheral vision that eyeglasses do not provide. They also enjoy not having to constantly wipe perspiration off their glasses or look through fogged up lenses.
Typically, a large lens is the best for sports, because it is less likely to move around and cause fluctuating vision. It is also less likely to fall out during strenuous activity or windy conditions. There are a number of contact lens brands made with the sports enthusiast specifically in mind.
Now there is a new contact lens specifically designed for tennis. This lens has a selective optical filter that dramatically increases the contrast between the optic yellow color of most tennis balls and the background. This makes tennis balls easier to track and hit. This lens also blocks 90% of UV rays. Are you listening, all you ALTA players?
