Skiing goggles are multi functional not only because of the speed and range of vision needed to navigate the slopes, but also because of the real difficulty of distinguishing between delicate shades of grey and white, which are blue-based colors.

The slightest mistake can cost you not only the competition, but also your health, and today goggles are designed to help the skier better see the differences around him/her. To clarify blue and grey shades, which are the hazier and less distinct side of the color spectrum, ski lenses are normally red [or rose], yellow or pale orange in color. This blocks out the blue and allows the wearer to see enhanced shades, subsequently ‘sharpening' vision.
