SABLE WaterOptics: The Difference is Clear!
The next step forward in the evolution of prescription swim goggles.
In 1984, SABLE became the very first in the world to offer swimming “spectacles” with corrective lenses for people with myopia (nearsightedness). SABLE became the first in the world to offer a prescription lens bank complete with a wide range of diopters for customized swim spectacles. SABLE was the first in the world to offer swimming goggles with flat aspherical lenses that don’t distort vision above or below the water. SABLE was first in the world to introduce the most advanced anti-fogging technology – FOG EATER – into the production process.

Swim goggles can work to: |
| • |
Limit direct eye contact with water that may lead to waterborne infection |
| • |
Prevent irritation or allergic reaction to pool disinfectants |
| • |
Relieve pain caused by differences in pressure |
| • |
Reduce the possibility of injury to eyes from being hit or kicked |
Average goggles aren’t good enough…
When human eyes are immersed in water, our vision is blurry, at best, making it difficult to distinguish objects or to judge distances. While average swim goggles may seem to improve vision underwater, they may actually be doing harm.
| • |
Over time, improperly selected or poorly designed goggles can increase your diopters, causing or exacerbating nearsightedness. |
| • |
Arc-shaped goggles may simulate astigmatism, damaging eyesight over time. |
| • |
Many swim goggles have meniscus-shaped lenses (with convex front surfaces and concave back surfaces) that may improve vision under water, but perform as plano (flat) lenses above water. Swimming in such goggles is very tiring for the eyes, which must adjust every time the head moves above or below the surface. |
Here’s what parents have to say:
“My kids wear them and love them. They fit all three of my kids, seven, nine, and eleven. They don’t leak, they’re super comfortable, and they stay adjusted.”
