In spite of the risks run, young and adults who wear prescription glasses have become used to wearing the same pair of glasses in their everyday life and when doing sport. But standard glasses are not designed to withstand ball or body impacts, which can result in serious injuries such as hematomas, trauma and cornea tears if a lens breaks. Bollé Sport Protective is compliant with the highest international standards in terms of eye protection: EN 166, ANSI Z87 & ASTM F Our eyewear performs at the highest level of protection in sports. Studies show that 90% of all eye injuries occurring during sports activities could be avoided by wearing protective sports glasses. With or without prescription, our glasses ensure eye protection while optimizing your performance.various coatings are available, depending on your specific requirements. At Bollé Sport Protective, we focus on technology, so you can play safe.

3 My name is Rafik Tahraoui, I am a Handball player for Warrington Wolves British & Irish Handball League Winners British Championship Winners : England Handball League Winners : England Handball Cup Winners : England Handball League 2 nd Place : Top Goal Scorer : Few EHF Cup Qualifiers and the Great Britain national team and I play left back and pivot. On Saturday October 3, 2015 I was playing at my home venue. Five minutes into the game I received a pass on the 7m line as part of a counter attack, but upon receiving the ball I was struck in the face from behind by a player. Since the incident I have had permanent impairment to my vision and despite extensive investigations by specialists, the injury has been deemed to be incurable due to optic nerve trauma.the damage done to my eye was life-changing and very difficult to adapt to, but I was determined to get back on court and compete at the same standard, and my main priority was to protect my good eye. My main aim is to continue playing sport for as long as possible and I am comforted in the knowledge that Bollé are helping me achieve that. Without Bollé Sport Protective I would no longer be playing sport. Thanks to the Bollé Sport Protective range I can still do what I love and play sport.
