Rose Lens Ski Goggles

From LoveToKnow Sunglasses

Rose lens ski goggles can get you on your way to getting the most out of your vision on the slopes. Read on to find out exactly how.

Rose colored lenses keep your vision sharp.

Why Rose Lens Ski Goggles Work

It's not all about looking at the world through rose-colored lenses, even though a good skiing trip could turn you into the life-loving optimist. In low light or gray days, rose colored ski goggles will make it easier to see. By enhancing the contrast, you'll have time to dodge out of the way of those things that seem to pop up out of nowhere. You'll see them coming much sooner than with lenses of any other color.

Don't forget the UV protection! Just because the lighting may not be at its brightest, and just because your lenses cut out the glare and offer sharper contrast, that doesn't necessarily mean your eyes are protected. Make sure you know your goggles have 100% UV protection included in the lenses. Anything else is incredibly dangerous for your eyes.

Buy Them Online

If going into an optical shop isn't going to happen any time soon for you due to other obligations, don't fear! You can order them online just as easily as you can go into a store. It may even be easier since you don't have to go sit down with a salesperson for their spiel, nor do you have to find time in your busy schedule to make it there before closing when you work, too. Here are a few you can order online:

  • Smith Fuse Regulator Rose Lens Ski/Snowboard Goggles from Overstock.com are one option. Here are a few of their features:
    • An airflow system so you can control the weather on the inside.
    • Anti-fog lens coating
    • Custom painted frame
    • Ventilation
    • A special scratch resistant lens for clarity
  • Optics Planet's Bolle Showtime serves up three pairs of goggles with rose-colored lenses. On the site they call them vermillion. They'll run you about $45.00. Some of their features are:
    • Double density face foam (which assists with comfort and fit).
    • Prevention of distortion and fog.
    • A silver metallic coating around the outside of the lenses to reduce glare.
    • Even though rose colored lenses are supposed to be best for low light conditions, these claim to be fabulous for bright days.

Sport Eyes has a pair called the Detonator. Replacement lenses, should you need them, are $27.00.

Vision 3K has three different pairs of goggles with vermillion lenses. The goggles are from Bolle.

Goggles Direct has Rose Platinum lenses available with black, silver, pink, and graphite frames. The price isn't unreasonable at $85.00.

Eyewear.com has a pair of rose lens ski goggles called Zeal Optics Rapt. They will cost almost $54.00 and you can choose between black metallic and sky blue frames.

Whichever ones you choose, you'll enjoy the sharper contrast. If you've ever been skiing without rose lenses—especially in really low or really bright light—you'll appreciate them a lot more!

Wear Them, Clean Them, Store Them

You're probably wondering how to clean your goggles. Having them on outside (and where else would you wear them?) means the won't stay spotless for long. Here's how you clean them so they'll be ready for the next time you decide to ski:

First, rinse them off. This gets off the majority of the particles that could scratch the lenses if you rub them with a cloth. From there your options include eyeglass cleaners that don’t include ammonia (it's bad for that ever-important UV protection). Use your cleaner of choice in conjunction with a soft cloth. Finally, make sure you keep your goggles safe—store them in their case.
