SEE CLEAR. RIDE HARD.
Sharp Vision on Every Run
All types of snowboard goggles and glasses offered at EuroOptica have been created to provide maximum contrast and clarity of vision. They can assist in understanding the terrain and maintaining control during each run down the slope, regardless of whether you ride in flat light, bright sunshine, or when weather conditions change rapidly in the mountains.
With prescription snowboard goggles and glasses, you will have a better, more accurate view of the mountains. When the weather changes while you are riding, prescription snowboarding eyewear will improve the quality of your vision and help you ride with confidence & precision. When it comes to fitting and performance, there are two primary lens options - prescription inserts or OTG (over the glasses), which you may select. Functional benefits of snowboard goggles are:
- Improved visibility - contrast and definition of terrain features (details, edges, and obstacles) in all light conditions.
- Lower glare & UV400 protection - tinted and polarized lenses reduce the amount of glare from snow.
- Anti-fogging technology - combined ventilation systems and coatings eliminate fogging on your lenses anytime you are actively riding.
- Secure & comfortable fit - designed to stay in place under your helmet during every turn and jump you make.

How to Choose Snowboard Glasses:
1. Select the appropriate lens based on the conditions. For overcast days, choose low-light yellow/rose lenses. For bright sunny days, pick dark lenses. If you expect variable conditions, pick photochromatic lenses.
2. Evaluate your anti-fog ability of the lens. For active riding, factors to consider are: double lens construction, the presence of anti-fog coating, and good ventilation.
3. Make sure the goggles fit with your helmet. There should be no gaps between the goggles and the helmet. The snowboard goggles should stay in place while you turn, jump and ride at high speeds.
4. Make sure to have an adequate field of view with the goggles. Cylindrical or spherical lenses will give you a larger field of view and will provide you better viewing of your surrounding terrain and other riders.
5. Make sure to obtain a minimum of UV400 protection for the goggles. Snow reflects sunlight and if you will be riding at a higher altitude you will want UV400 protection.
6. Look for comfort and fit to the face. Comfort can be ascertained by looking for the following features: soft foam, flexible frame, adjustable straps. All of these features will give you comfort throughout your entire ride without creating pressure points.
