Those paddlers who are short-sighted may be VERY interested in following this link i-GO lenses
I came across it on an advert whilst browsing the internet. I thought it'd be too good to be true but with further research found out that the 'OrthoK' lenses have been used in this country for some time now and that it really does work.
I've been wearing the lenses for about half a month now, and my eyesight is BETTER than 20/20. I just have to sleep in my hard lenses every night, and take them out in the morning. There is no problems with sleeping in these lenses, they are designed to be slept in (I had concerns about that initially until I first used them). They were uncomfortable to begin with because I was only used to soft lenses but it does get a lot easier very quickly! I could happily wear mine in the day time too now.
It's been great for me, I couldn't trust lenses for paddling because of the number of times I've had them slip so I just went without. My prescription was only -2.00 but since being able to see whilst paddling I have noticed a huge difference. I strongly recommend anybody who is short sighted to check it out and maybe try it! :D
