See golf better.

Posted on August 22nd, 2011 by Lisa P.

The sun is out, the days are long—perfect time to grab your clubs and hit the links. But is your eyewear helping make every swing your best?

Golf is a game of precision. That’s why Nike Vision sunwear, in prescription and non-prescription, offers the patented Nike MAX Golf Tint™ to help make the ball “pop” and highlight the contours of the green.

Specially tuned to the game of golf, this tint is ideal for any course, in the sun or under the clouds.

It enhances critical details of the fairway and green and helps you navigate the unique visual challenges of the golf course.

Silence the glare.

Posted on July 27th, 2011 by MaryBeth

When summer’s heat arrives, do you launch your boat into the nearest body of water? At the first sight of snow, do you grab your skis and head for the mountains?  Then you need to make sure a pair of polarized Nike Vision sunwear is included in your gear.

Nike MAX Polarized technology greatly reduces the bright, disruptive glare from highly reflective surfaces, like water and snow, when it can feel like you’re looking at a second sun. This optical filtering innovation prevents light at certain angles from passing through the lens to give you less squinting and better focus. Nike MAX Polarized is available for both prescription and non-prescription sunwear.

My dog ate my glasses…

I was an optician for 12 years before joining VSP and I’ve heard many reasons for broken frames and lenses.  Here are a few of my favorites.

1. I think there’s something wrong with my glasses.

My patient stands before me, squinting through glasses that are clearly askew. I can tell right off that his glasses are missing a nose pad—no wait, make that both nose pads—and the arm that holds the nose pad, and I wonder how he was able to drive to the office.

Did you know that you can visit your VSP eye doctor to change out old nose pads for shiny new ones? Over time the natural oils in your skin can turn nose pads green. Pop in and give your frames a quick, much-needed refresh just by changing the nose pads.
