Reaction Time & Depth Perception: Why Dink Lenses Feel Faster

Faster reads, better depth. Dink tints are tuned to ball color and lighting so you can get to the ball sooner and finish points with confidence.

Reaction Time & Depth Perception: Why Dink Lenses Feel Faster

“Seeing it sooner” is the ultimate performance edge. Dink pickleball sunglasses are engineered to accelerate ball recognition and stabilize depth cues by matching tint to ball color and lighting.

How tint drives speed:
• Contrast = earlier detection. Green boosts contrast for green/yellow balls outdoors. Violet heightens red/orange/pink balls. Natural preserves detail in low or artificial light for all ball colors.
• Depth = cleaner judgments. Medium-light tints maintain shadow detail, letting your brain read spin, bounce height, and distance more accurately.
• Comfort = fewer visual “resets.” With less squinting and glare, you stay locked on the ball from paddle to paddle.

Why most over-40 players choose medium to light tints:
Very dark sunglasses reduce available detail, making it harder to track spin in the kitchen and to judge pace on drives. Dink’s tints deliver enough brightness to see everything you need, while still cutting glare and protecting your eyes.

Build your setup: Green (outdoor green balls), Violet (warm-tone balls), and Natural (low light/indoors). You’ll feel the speed.
