If your eyes feel dry, strained, or “heavy” after a few games, you’re not alone. Pickleball’s blend of bright light, rapid focus changes, and visual tracking pushes your eyes harder than you think. Over time, this leads to squinting, slower reaction, and headaches — classic signs of eye fatigue.
That’s exactly why Dink Eyewear developed ColorBoost™ lens technology — a science-based system that optimizes color wavelengths so your eyes process information naturally, without stress.
When your lenses aren’t balanced for the light around you, your pupils constantly contract and expand, trying to adjust brightness. Each adjustment burns microseconds of focus time and drains energy from your eye muscles. Dink’s ColorBoost filters maintain consistent brightness across your entire field of vision, which means your eyes don’t have to keep recalibrating mid-rally.
The result? Longer, more comfortable play sessions and sharper focus from first serve to match point.
Here’s how the three ColorBoost™ tints keep you comfortable:
-
Green: Designed for full-sun outdoor conditions, it cuts UV glare without over-darkening — perfect for tournament play or long afternoons outside.
-
Violet: Balances brightness for mixed indoor/outdoor or warmer ball colors, reducing strain caused by visual color conflict.
-
Natural: Ideal for indoor LED or low-light situations, it maintains high contrast without eye stress.
Unlike polarized lenses that block useful visual cues, Dink’s non-polarized optics retain depth and motion signals, so your eyes and brain stay synchronized. That’s what gives ColorBoost lenses their “light but fast” feel.
Each lens is coated with Dink’s anti-fog and hydrophobic layers, preventing moisture or sweat from clouding vision. Frames are made from ultralight TR-90 material with soft grip contact points, minimizing facial pressure that can trigger fatigue around the temples.
The difference becomes clear during long tournaments or weekend clinics — your eyes simply stay fresher longer. You’ll find you’re tracking spin and pace with less effort and making cleaner contact at the kitchen line deep into your session.
If you already wear prescription eyewear, Dink’s RX Program brings those same fatigue-reducing optics to your custom lenses. Whether you’re nearsighted, farsighted, or use progressives, your personalized ColorBoost tint will match your needs exactly.
Eye fatigue doesn’t have to be part of your game. With ColorBoost™, your lenses do the hard work so your eyes don’t have to.
