Help prevent a child from becoming an eye injury statistic!
If you are a parent, guardian, coach or sports program director of young athletes you are responsible for the safety of their eyes while participating in sports with known eye injury risks.
For the children who need corrective prescription lenses, it is important to know that regular eyeglasses and contact lenses provide little or no protection. In fact, regular eyewear may even cause a more severe eye injury. Talk to us about protective sports eyewear with your prescription.
While no single device can prevent all injuries, sport eye protection that meets stringent ASTM Standards for the sports being played can significantly reduce the risk of spot-related eye injury. We proudly offer RecSpecs, the first and only Protective Sports Eyewear to receive the AOA seal of acceptance.
