Nike
MaxSight, developed in partnership with
Bausch & Lomb, is a tinted soft contact lens
that behaves like sunglasses, reducing glare
and filtering out 95% of UVA and UVB and
more than 90% of blue light. But because the
lens rests directly on the eye, there’s
virtually no distortion as with standard
sunglasses. Athletes get the same clear view
at all angles.
Plus, Nike MaxSight eliminates the
environmental effects that plague sunglasses
like fogging, scratching, additional weight,
or nosepieces and frames to obstruct vision.
There’s no obstruction from the edge of the
lens, the frame or the nosepiece, because
they don’t exist. And there are no pressure
points and no slippage. Max Sight also
eliminates light leakage, reducing the need
to squint, allowing the eye to relax and
perform more naturally.
Nike MaxSight is, in effect, one giant
visual sweet spot.
How They Work
Nike’s patented Nike MaxSight Light
Architecture™ selectively alters specific
wavelengths of light within the visual
spectrum to enhance key elements in sport.
The athlete gets crisp, clear vision without
anything getting in their way. By removing
most of the blue light, contrast and clarity
are enhanced — a decided advantage for any
competitor. For sports not conducive to
eyewear, such as golf, tennis and soccer,
athletes will see marked improvement, even
on days where the sun’s not at its
brightest.
Nike MaxSight provides through-and-through
tinting (unlike cosmetically tinted lenses),
so there’s no bending or scattering of
light. Plus there’s limited incidental light
or peripheral flickering creeping around the
sides, as with sunglasses. Athletes tested
in Nike MaxSight lenses found they squinted
less, were able to relax more, and had
exceptional views of contours and movement.
With Nike MaxSight, there’s minimal
squinting in bright light, and quicker
visual definition when going from bright
light to shadows.
The Wear
Nike MaxSight is a 30-day lens, though most
athletes will wear them selectively and for
short durations. Lenses come in six-pack
packaging. Nike MaxSight is available with
or without a correction, thereby making it
accessible to athletes whether they wear
contacts or not.
