On the Run: Prescription Sports Glasses to Keep You Moving

Calling all outdoor lovers and fitness freaks!

If you love to get out there and get active but worry about your eyes, then you should know that there are some amazing sports styles out there for you to rock whilst you run, ride and row! Having to wear glasses can sometimes seem like a massive hindrance when you’re trying to get fit but specially designed sports glasses can help you to get from A to B, without losing sight of what’s ahead of you.

Thanks to their ergonomic design, many sports glasses are a great alternative to contacts, especially if you find that lenses don’t agree with you. Not everyone can have perfect vision but that shouldn’t stop you from being you.

From high end styles to your sporty basics, here are five fabulous pairs of sports frames suitable for every individual.

Nike 7070/3

The silky smooth frames are exceptionally trendy and wouldn’t look out of place on the faces of many famous sports personalities. With adjustable rubber tips and an optical fit temple design, these are the perfect pair of prescription glasses suitable for even the most advanced athletes.
