How Wearing the Right RX Lens Reduces Motion Blur

Whether you’re diving cross-court or setting up for a third-shot drop, motion blur can cost you points, confidence, and reaction time. If your vision isn’t crisp during fast movement, you’re not just seeing slower—you’re reacting slower.

That’s why at Blinded Wear, we use 1.61 high-index prescription lenses with anti-distortion curvature and sport-fit engineering. These aren't just glasses—they’re high-performance vision tools built for competitive play.

Why Motion Blur Happens in Sports

Most players don’t realize they’re experiencing blur. They chalk it up to fatigue, speed, or lighting. In reality, generic RX lenses can’t keep up with sudden head and eye movements.

• Poor lens curvature leads to edge distortion
• Cheap coatings can smudge or reflect sunlight
• Heavy frames shift during movement

Blinded RX frames eliminate these issues at the source. They're not just lighter—they're tuned to stay optically stable even as your body shifts, pivots, and sprints.

How Our 1.61 Lenses Tackle Blur

The 1.61 high-index lenses we use offer more than just thin profiles—they provide precision refraction and faster light correction. That means:

• Less warping during lateral movement
• Sharper object edges in peripheral zones
• More accurate tracking at full sprint

This is especially important for tournament players, aggressive movers, and anyone who plays outdoors in variable lighting or heat.
