The bathing establishments in the Pesaro area organize the
spaces of the beach with beach-tennis and beach-volley courts .
Some play freely in the water with the
"battilarde", the classic wooden racketswhich are used with the
tennis ball, although in recent years it has decreased in popularity,
supplanted by beach tennis .
Summer water sports include windsurfing, canoeing and
sailing . Swimming and spearfishing belong to another category .
The bicycle is widespread in Pesaro , so much so that it has
been defined as the "city of bicycles", a means that is also widely
used in the nearby cities of Romagna and Emilia.
In Pesaro we have beautiful cycle paths that also run along
the beach and the San Bartolo Natural Park, which is a high coast on the sea
with a road that has been used several times by the Giro d'Italia runners and
with a wonderful panorama that blends the green of the hills with the blue of
the sea.
Well, what sunglasses are needed to enjoy all this beauty

Sunglasses for summer sports: which one to choose?
Whenever we are at sea or by the sea, we need to protect our
eyes effectively, as ultraviolet rays hit us directly and reflexively, becoming
much more aggressive and potentially harmful .
So you need adequate glasses with lenses that block 100% of
UVA and UVB, with sufficiently dark filters , with the possibility of inserting
a mirror on the external surface of the lens and an anti-reflective treatment
on the inside.
Better yet, opt for polarized lenses that eliminate the
glare of water and sand and the unpleasant situations that arise when the sun
is in front of you.
We of the Ciaroni team are seafarers and we know exactly
what it takes to go to the water and to the beach without jeopardizing our
visual apparatus .
As we have learned to put protection 50 on our epidermis, we
must understand that it is not enough to squint to protect oneself from UV
rays. We must use appropriate glasses that may vary depending on the sport
practiced , but which are all designed for protection from harmful rays.
For some sports such as beach volleyball, beach tennis,
cycling, canoeing, windsurfing and sailing , wrap-around goggles with elastic ,
rubbery materials are preferred , which in the event of a collision do not
break and above all do not cause damage to who wears them.
Metal glasses which, in case of strong impact, can create
wounds in the eye area (cheekbones, supraciliary arch, temple, etc.) should
therefore be avoided .
What is sports
sunglasses used for?
To ensure excellent performance in the sports field, every
athlete knows that he must prepare himself better and must have the appropriate
equipment , which, in addition to clothing, includes technical sunglasses for
sports.
They are part of the equipment and the competitive strategy,
first of all because they protect the eyes from dust particles or other debris
that can rise during sports, are able to guarantee the necessary shielding from
the UV rays of the sun and guarantee perfect vision in all conditions of use .
Thanks to new optical technologies, modern models of
technical glasses for sports are able to guarantee a clearer and sharper vision
and consequently ensure better performance for the athletes who wear them.
The practice of sporting activities requires constant
attention, speed of reaction and agility. Only a clear and sharp vision can
ensure maximum concentration and precision in all circumstances , also avoiding
unpleasant injuries.
For some sportsmen who wear technical sports glasses,
however, the problem may be the difference between front and side vision.
Precisely for this reason more and more models of wraparound glasses are made,
which allow an optimal vision also laterally .
These models are very comfortable and must be made to
measure, because they must adapt to the shape of the face and be suitable for
the sporting activity to be practiced . The frame must remain firm and stable
to ensure ease and speed of movement in any situation.
To be sure to choose the right model, you need the advice of
an optician or optometrist , who can give useful and precise information.
The importance of sunglasses for
outdoor sports
Technical sports glasses are not only the preserve of
professional athletes. Everyone, even those who practice amateur or sporadic
activity, should wear them. It is mistakenly believed that traditional glasses
can also be worn , especially if you have visual defects to correct; in reality
they are not suitable for prolonged outdoor sports , especially in summer.
Sports graduated sunglasses are designed to correct the
wearer's visual defect , and are also equipped with greater UV protection than
traditional ones.
There is no sporty sunglasses for everyone
When you intend to buy a pair of technical sports glasses,
you must first contact the ophthalmologist and optician / optometrist . Based
on the presence or absence of visual defects, and also on the basis of the
sporting activity to be practiced, professionals will be able to direct towards
the best choice.
It is important to clarify that there are no glasses that
are suitable without distinction for all subjects or for all activities. This is even more true as regards sports
glasses, which must be chosen to measure, paying close attention to the various
components:
Frame : must be solid, comfortable and perfectly adherent to
the face . Aesthetics have their weight, but to ensure good wearability it is
necessary to feel it light and enveloping, to better accompany all activities.
Lenses : must be unbreakable and light . The modern lenses
are all in polycarbonate precisely to be lighter and to be worn in any context.
Depending on the sport, more or less marked levels of protection are also
recommended and the application of filters on the lenses can facilitate vision
even in conditions of excessive or low light.
Nasal bridge and temples : they must be comfortable in every
situation, even the most extreme. The bridge must be soft and comfortable, the
length of the arms must be calibrated well on the person's face . They should
have soft protections to cushion movements and prevent them from falling. In
many sports it is advisable to choose wrap-around temples, to best surround the
whole ear and improve the stability of the frame. If the sport to be practiced
is cycling or skating, better than the straightest temples , which can also be
worn under a helmet.
Ventilation : be equipped with a good ventilation system
that allows the air to pass and avoids the formation of sweat or condensation
as much as possible, factors that could adversely affect vision and therefore
sports performance.
The right technical
glasses for every sport
Water sports
For those who practice water sports, the best choice is
certainly a good pair of goggles, able to defend the eyes from the chlorine of
the pool, from the salt water of the sea and from bacteria.
They must be comfortable and well-fitting, with silicone
closures to prevent the entry of water and adjustable elastic bands. Even those
with visual defects can wear goggles, models with graduated lenses are also
available to guarantee excellent vision for everyone.
Sports with ball or
ball
Having to practice an outdoor activity that involves the use
of a ball or a ball can be dangerous if you do not wear the right technical
sports glasses .
Especially on the sunniest days, the reverberation and the
intensity of the sunlight can be an impediment to the performance and even be
harmful.
Polarized glasses provide a better perception of colors and
depth of field , also avoiding accidents due to suboptimal vision.
