The Choice of Champions

 

Our lens science is used by more World Champion shotgun shooters than any other brand. Shooting Sports athletes require the most visually accurate lens technologies available to perform at their maximum potential. Seeing better means performing better. Pilla is worn by over 90% of the top professional sporting clays shooters in the world. Our lens technologies provide athletes with an unfair advantage.

 

Pilla Light Management Technology: The key to our lens technology is based on regulation of the proper amount of light into the eye while harnessing our high definition color enhancement technology for maximum athletic performance. Regulation of light into the eye for sport is critical and often neglected by professionals. When too much light is delivered to the eye the result is a necessity to squint or retard the light. This reaction has two significant effects on eye performance and ultimately on the athlete; 

 

1. Eye fatigue 

 

2. Lack of focal ability of the eye. 

 

Eye fatigue is a key contributor to the loss of crisp eye/hand coordination. When the eye is strained through either squinting to reduce bright light into the eye or straining for light, meaning not enough light to the eye, the result is a quick loss of focus and sharp vision. 

 

The obvious result in sport is not acceptable to the athlete. An athlete diligently works on training for endurance, stamina, strength, and routinely trains for perfection in their chosen passion through practice. This commitment to performance is compromised all too often by neglecting eye potential. Pilla is committed to providing athletes with technical solutions for maximum performance of the eye. We have developed very specific lens formulations for application to your passion.
