Bifocal Sports Glasses – SUN READING

For athletes who rely on instruments during their sporting activities whether it’s GPS devices, heart rate monitors, bicycle computers, or even maps reading small displays while in motion can be a challenge, especially for those who require bifocal lenses. To address this need, DEMON has developed the SUN READING line, a collection of bifocal sports glasses specifically designed to improve near-vision performance without compromising distance vision.

The SUN READING glasses feature a small bezel with magnification powers of +1.5, +2.0, and +2.5, allowing athletes to read instruments clearly while maintaining full clarity for distant objects. This design provides a practical and cost-effective alternative to custom bifocal prescriptions, offering ready-to-use eyewear that saves both time and money.

The line includes two distinct models, each available in multiple lens options to suit different conditions:

• TIGER SUN READING – Available in a version with photochromic lenses, which automatically adjust to changing light conditions, and in a version with category 3 mirrored smoke lenses for optimal sun protection and glare reduction.
  
• VISUAL SUN READING - Available in a version with category 3 mirrored smoke lenses for optimal sun protection and glare reduction.
  
  
• SHAKE SUN READING – Equipped with polarized category 3 mirrored lenses, ideal for reducing reflections from water, roads, or other reflective surfaces while maintaining sharp near and distance vision.

Whether cycling, running, hiking, or engaging in other sports, SUN READING glasses ensure that athletes can quickly and comfortably read their instruments without straining their eyes or compromising safety. These glasses combine functionality, comfort, and performance, making them an essential accessory for any athlete who needs bifocal correction during their activities.

Recommended Sports for Bifocal Sports Glasses

Bifocal sports glasses are ideal for any sport where athletes require prescription lenses or frequently need to switch focus between near and distant objects. These glasses are designed to enhance visual performance, reduce eye strain, and improve comfort during activities that involve reading instruments, devices, or maps while in motion. Below are some of the primary sports where bifocal sports glasses can provide significant benefits:

Cycling:
Cyclists whether engaging in mountain biking, road cycling, or urban commuting often face the challenge of reading small displays while riding. Devices such as bike computers, GPS systems, heart rate monitors, or even smartphones require frequent near-vision focus, which can be difficult for those with presbyopia or other vision impairments.

Bifocal cycling glasses are one of the most effective solutions available, as they allow cyclists to clearly read instruments without compromising distance vision. The immediate benefits are noticeable: eyes feel less fatigued, focus shifts naturally between handlebars, trail, and devices, and the overall riding experience becomes safer and more comfortable. By reducing the strain of constantly adjusting vision, bifocal sports glasses ensure visual relaxation throughout the ride, making long training sessions or commutes much more enjoyable.

Other Recommended Sports:
While cycling is a primary example, bifocal sports glasses are also highly beneficial for athletes in other disciplines that require frequent focus changes, including:

• Running and trail running: Reading GPS watches or route maps during training.
• Skiing and snowboarding: Checking altimeters, trail maps, or smartphone apps while navigating slopes.
• Golf: Reading scorecards or distances while maintaining clear vision of the course.
• Rowing and kayaking: Monitoring instruments or timers without taking focus off the water.
• Mountain climbing and hiking: Consulting maps, altimeters, or other devices without compromising awareness of the terrain.

By integrating bifocal correction into high-performance sports eyewear, athletes can maintain both clarity and comfort, improving performance and reducing eye strain in sports that demand attention to both near and far vision.

Running and Trail Running

For runners and trail runners, keeping track of performance metrics is an essential part of training and competition. Devices like GPS watches, heart rate monitors, or smartphones often feature small screens that require clear near vision to read accurately while moving. For athletes with presbyopia or other near-vision difficulties, constantly shifting focus between the road or trail ahead and the device can cause eye strain, fatigue, and distraction, which may compromise both safety and performance.

Bifocal sports glasses for running and trail running provide a practical solution. By incorporating near-vision correction into high-performance sports eyewear, these glasses allow athletes to quickly glance at devices without breaking stride or losing focus on the path ahead. Compared to standard optical frames, bifocal running glasses offer enhanced comfort, improved visual clarity, and reduced eye fatigue, making them one of the most effective solutions for runners and trail runners who rely on real-time activity data.

Hiking and Mountaineering

Hikers and mountaineers frequently use GPS devices, altimeters, smartphones, or cameras to navigate or document their journeys. The combination of outdoor glare, long distances, and close-up instrument reading can be taxing on the eyes, especially at higher altitudes or during long treks.

Mountain-specific bifocal sports glasses are a technical solution that ensures clear visibility of both distant trails and nearby instruments. These glasses reduce eye strain and improve comfort, allowing hikers and climbers to monitor their navigation tools, check maps, or take photos without compromising awareness of their surroundings. This dual-focus capability is especially valuable during steep ascents, exposed ridges, or in conditions with variable lighting, where quick and accurate visual adjustments are crucial for safety and efficiency.

Sport Fishing

In sport fishing, precision and attention to detail are critical. Tasks such as attaching bait to a hook, tying knots, or handling small tackle components require sharp near-vision focus. For anglers with presbyopia or other near-vision limitations, standard eyewear can make these fine tasks challenging and frustrating.

Bifocal sports glasses provide a clear solution, allowing anglers to see both the water ahead and their instruments or tackle up close. By improving visual accuracy and reducing eye fatigue, bifocal glasses enhance performance and make fishing more enjoyable, especially during long hours of careful work. This makes them an essential tool for serious anglers who demand both precision and comfort while on the water.
