Oakley Prizm Golf vs. Dark Golf Lenses | SportRx

[@kwh1183]

The verbal explanation these guys give is dead on accurate. Don’t look at any simulations of what it looks like until you actually put them on.

[@sportrxeyewear]

Thanks! We always love to hear that our friends out getting active, agree with what we have to say!

[@JohnnyStyles]

Im really torn. I’ve tried them all. And for some reason I keep going back to the regular golf’s instead of the dark golf’s or even the deep water ones. . . and I’m at the beach in FL …. Great video.

[@ChadRex1]

I use Prizm Golf for Tennis, Love these lenses on the tennis court

[@pschlick4]

Really helpful video. I have had the OG prizm golf for many years and the lens treatment is wearing away in spots. Gonna try the Prizm Golf based on your recs as it's pretty sunny where I live.

[@charlessmith2223]

Been using prizm dark golf and it’s amazing.

[@joebuckley5551]

does the prism help track ball in flight off the tee ?

[@sportrxeyewear]

100%! The Prizm tech combined with a rose base highlights specific colors while muting others to create more contrast, making it easier to spot and track the ball in flight.

[@boykolokoy6081]

When you wear this kind of beast in a golf field, 100% you have the advantage😎 its like magic Oakley rules!!!

[@drkviol8013]

Yes! I live in Orlando and it can get very bright here, dark is a necessity.

An excellent choice for Texas landscapes and lighting conditions!🔥👍

Does Oakley makes prescriptions sun glasses

[@sportrxeyewear]

Absolutely they do! 👉 www.sportrx.com/shopby/brand-oakley/product_type-sunglasses.html?is_eligible=1 🔥

[@ScottDreyfus]

Prizm is like seeing the world for the first time. It’s almost a sensory overload. I am having a great experience with Prizm Polorized sapphire and it’s amazing for sunny days spotting from the fairways. I am still waiting for the dark golf and golf prism get here. I’m struggling to find a cloudy day lens currently. I really don’t want to take one off the dome because I can’t see the ball.

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hey Scott! The PRizm Golf should do the trick for low-light & overcast condtions. I think you'll be shocked by the amount of detail and contrast achieved when playing. Let us know what you think when you get a chance to try them out!

[@bsmith4u2]

Great video guys. What frames are best for Progressive prescription lenses?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hello! It largely depends on the strength of your prescription and what you intend to use the frames for. The stronger the Rx, the fewer frame options you'll have to choose from, generally speaking. When it comes to progressives, a larger lens doesn't always mean you'll get more viewing area. If we're talking about frames for sport, specifically golf, we encourage choosing single vision over progressives or multifocal lenses to achieve a wider viewing area with less distortion throughout the lens. This helps a lot when you're looking out of the corner of your eye to line up a shot. However, if you're heavily dependant on the reading portion of a progressive lens to see your phone or view a scorecard, then it's good to stick with a multifocal lens. Below you'll see links to our top frame picks for golf, but you can also give us a call to speak with a live optician who can help with selecting the right frame and lens for your needs. Hope this helps! ⛳ 👉www.sportrx.com/oakley-sportrx-flak-2-0-xl-limited-edition.html 👉www.sportrx.com/sportrx-huckson.html 👉www.sportrx.com/maui-jim-ho-okipa.html

[@Trabaegocer]

Is the tint or hue of the golf prizm in any way similar to the rose lens from Maui Jim?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hello! They're similar in that they both have a rose base tint. Though the tint intensity, lens tech, and mirroring are different. Both options will enhance color & contrast in your surroundings.

[@dawsonbroadhead714]

I have prizm golf lenses for my Oakleys but I got them in the winter

[@westonator0523]

I hike and play golf, do you think that since they both need fairly high contrast the prizm golf would be good for nature and hiking as well?

[@sportrxeyewear]

The Prizm Golf or Dark Golf lens would be sufficient for hiking as they use the same base tint as the Prizm Trail. There's a few differences in the dye recipe but they are somewhat similar and should work well on and off the trail.

[@jennifercalkins5971]

Do both lenses protect from UV?

[@bigwordbird]

Would love to see a Sutro review with the golf lenses ⛳️ 🕶️

[@sportrxeyewear]

A fantastic choice for the links! The sheer size of the lens provides more than ample coverage from harsh sun rays and the range of view gifts the player with near zero vision obstruction. There have been a few criticisms about the placement of the piece connecting the nosepad to the frame chassis as it can sometimes be a distraction, but overall an excellent frame for Golf 🏌️‍♂️

[@richs915]

How do I decided which lens is best for golf, Prizm dark or light?

[@alexn8320]

Where can I get one of those SportRx caps? Couldn't find it on the website

[@lavishsoles2659]

I have the prizm golf but a play baseball will this hurt me in the long run?

[@sportrxeyewear]

It will not hurt you at all! In fact, PRIZM Golf is a great substitute to PRIZM Field. Both lenses function similarly but Golf is a just a bit more fine-tuned for golf. Thanks for reaching out!

[@lavishsoles2659]

Thanks

[@ryancarmody4370]

Would using Prism road lenses while playing golf be suitable or have much of a difference compared to the golf lenses?

[@sportrxeyewear]

They are somewhat similar, however the Prizm Golf and Dark Golf provide a bit better contrast on the course compared to the Prizm Road. Specifically in the ability to read the contours of the fairways and greens.

[@jaymarcum5764]

Switched darks to regular. Significantly better for golf imo. A little better pop of colors in bright condition, but usable in lower light. Nothing worse than having to take your glasses off in a twilight or intermittent cloudy day. You know as golfers, we don’t need any excuses, but that really does have a negative effect for me.

[@sportrxeyewear]

We concur! Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@ScottDreyfus]

I have an astigmatism and if I wear sunglasses it kills my proprioception and depth perception to the point of nausea. The curved leans makes me feel almost drunk. I’ve always struggled with Depth perception playing golf. I can’t really determine how far something is away. The background looses its contours when I look off in the distance. I can only tell near,far, by how tall things are in the distance. After a few hundred yards it looks like I’m looking at a painting and not quite present. Sunglasses make it feel like I’m seeing through a fishbowl. I can barely make contact.

[@Nokremosealion]

Is that a good choice? Prizm golf for jog in low light condition… like morning early or evening..? Thanks

[@johnnyhonda4404]

Light transmission for each?

[@sportrxeyewear]

PRIZM Dark Golf VLT: 22% PRIZM Golf VLT: 30% Thanks for reaching out!

[@jessicagranc5562]

How different is this from prism trail? I have those for MTB, would those work for golf?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi Jessica! The Prizm Trail uses a similar dye recipe to that of the Golf and Dark golf but with a higher VLT (36% compared to 22% DG & 30% Golf). Depending on light conditions, it would certainly be suitable for the golf course. Preferably overcast and cloudy conditions.

[@Cimler20]

Are the golf prizm lenses non-polarized? I bought a pair awhile back but didn’t realize that you should not wear polarized lenses while golfing so now I’m curious if mine are or aren’t. Thanks in advance!

[@RockBottom7777]

The Prizm golf lenses are not polarized.

What is the best lens to see red? I play cricket with red ball

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi Eddie! We would recommend PRIZM Golf or PRIZM Field. Both lenses are designed for on-field play and will greatly increase contrast and help you see more definition on the field.

[@WinstonWolfrider]

Can you get Prizm or Dark Prizm lenses to fit old Oakley M Frames?

Hey Ben! Unfortunately Oakley doesn't make Prizm lenses for that specific frame Model, BUT there are other single shield frame options that do! www.sportrx.com/oakley-radar-ev-path.html www.sportrx.com/oakley-jawbreaker.html

when I customize my JAWBREAKER LENSES, there is no PRIZM GOLF LENSES, which is the closest or the same lense for Jawbreaker? I want that lense in jawbreaker, thanks

[@jerrytrevino3089]

I play golf and softball I do not have the funds to purchase both lenses right. If I play golf with prism field am I at a disadvantage?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi Jerry! You will not be at a noticeable disadvantage. PRIZM Golf is the most optimal but you will still get good contrast enhancement for PRIZM Field. The main difference between the lenses is the amount of visible light coming through the lens to your eyes. PRIZM Golf allows twice as much light through the lens to your eyes. PRIZM Dark Golf is between Field and Golf but Field is still darkest at 15% VLT. You can learn more about PRIZM Sport lenses here: www.sportrx.com/blog/oakley-prizm-sport-lens-technology/

[@jerrytrevino3089]

Awesome thank you!

[@STVTD]

Hi Rob, how does prizm golf (30% VLT) perform in a skiing low light condition? How does it compare to the snow saphire, rose or hi pink. I'd like to have an option of wearing prizm sunglasses under a pair of ski goggles (either clear or green for lowlight). The Wind Jacket 2.0 dont fit under goggles to be useful on windy overcast/whiteout days. Thanks

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi there! We wouldn't recommend wearing glasses under goggles. Instead, if you need an rx option we can make you a custom rx insert to fit in your Oakley PRIZM snow goggles. Check out more information on our insert here: www.sportrx.com/shopby/product_type-prescription_inserts.html

[@STVTD]

Thanks for your reply. I don't need to wear prescription glasses for skiing. Just want to have an option of switching prizm glasses quickly and prizm snow lenses don't come in sunglasses other than the wind jacket 2.0. So just wondering if prizm golf would be any almost as good as prizm snow for skiing in cloudy and whiteout conditions. Thanks

[@portillo6040]

Is there a good golf and biking lense? Prizm dark be ok for biking?
