KEEP YOUR EYE ON THE BALL
Fast-paced, head-to-head competition on the basketball court is not for the faint-hearted. Intensity and physicality are just the nature of the game. With in-your-face defense, swatting at the ball, and jumping for rebounds – vision protection and performance are key.
Everyday glasses are not meant for the court. Basketball is the leading cause of eye injuries, according to annual data from Prevent Blindness, and wearing proper protective glasses and goggles can help basketball players avoid eye injuries.
When you see clearly and safely with Rec Specs basketball glasses or basketball goggles, prescription or not, it's easier to maintain your focus on the ball. These sports goggles and frames are well-made and comfortably fit on your face with an adjustable strap, allowing you to see to your full potential on the court.

Impact protection
Basketball is not a sport that is played with typical goggles and glasses. It's a high-risk sport where a majority of sports-related eye injuries can occur. You need to ensure that your eyes are protected with the right type of basketball glasses or goggles.
Basketball players, especially those who wear prescription glasses whether amateur or professional, should wear high quality safety glasses that provides high-impact protection. Prescription basketball goggles and glasses should meet or exceed ASTM F803 impact requirements.
Rec Specs basketball eyewear is available in a variety of styles, including frames, goggles, and interchangeable options for different positions on the court and for multi-sport athletes. All Rec Specs glasses and goggles feature a sport wrap design for a wider field of vision. Any prescription is available for these sports glasses.
High-performance lenses and coatings
When playing basketball, whether it's indoors or outdoors, players deal with the challenges of glare and UV rays, lens fogging and risk of injury from ball impacts, (hands or fingers). It is recommended to ask for fast fog recovery (or anti-fog) coatings as well as an anti-glare coating for maximum vision performance. Players also need a shatterproof lens that will not break upon impact to keep their vision protected and safe.
The 2x2 ProCoat exclusively available from Rec Specs Lab offers lens technology that doubles as competitive advantage. With this lens coating, your glasses and goggles quickly recover from fog for clear vision to see your full potential and eliminate 99.9% of reflective light for maximum vision performance.
Do you play sports and struggle with clear vision? Clear polycarbonate with 2x2 ProCoat is the right combination. Do you play outdoor in full sun or sometimes overcast conditions? A photochromic or light-responsive, polycarbonate lens with 2x2 ProCoat is the recommended combination to keep your focus on the game.


Stability in Motion
Running down the court, jumping for the ball, and playing close defense all require safe and stable eyewear. High-speed motion, slow to quick movements, up and down, and side-to-side movements are required in both outdoor and indoor games. When you're wearing a standard frame, it's simple to fall and shatter, so you can't play at your best.
Rec Specs basketball eyewear has a sculpted temple design for a snug fit, molded cushioning for enhanced grip, comfort, and durability, and a temple strap for a secure fit. These elements are meant to keep you stable while moving, allowing you to perform at your best.
