Vision Correcting Masks and Gauge Reader Masks |
Pricelist [Currency] |
|
To order, consult your eyeglass or contact prescription for the proper amount of spherical power correction, and then select the mask lenses. When reading your prescription, "OS" means your left eye, and "OD" means your right eye. Strength for the lenses ranges from -1.0 to -8.0 diopter in half diopters. If you have a quarter diopter prescription, then increase to the next higher diopter. For example, if the Rx is -1.75, then increase to -2.0 diopter. If one eye needs no correction, then order a "Plano" lens for that side. If your Rx also has a cylinder power value with an axis value, you have an astigmatism and these lenses do not correct for astigmatism. |

Because you asked... the vision correcting and gauge reader masks you find on this page have the magnification ground into the lenses themselves. The correction is not aftermarket 'stick on' or 'glue in' or adhered in any way. Our customers very plainly tell us the aftermarket solutions simply don't work well, and we don't bother selling them. For our masks, each of the lenses are ground just like you would expect on a pair of eyeglasses. |
| If you don't know exactly what amount of magnification you require, +2.0 diopter is the most common value found in gauge reader masks. If you prefer a different power of magnification, have a different bifocal requirement in each eye, or prefer a larger bifocal lens, then we suggest you consider the SeaDive Gauge Reader Mask. |
Tek Tip

Toothpaste is for TeethDon't use toothpaste on modern dive masks, especially those masks that have vision correction lenses or 'optical coatings' on the lenses. You will either damage the lenses, or needlessly waste toothpaste since most modern toothpaste formulations are not at all abrasive. All new dive masks do have mould release agents in the flexible skirt that during long storage will migrate to the surface of the lense and cause fogging. For optically coated lenses, these deposits can easily be removed with an extra application of a powerful surfactant like SeaQuick defog or Johnson's® Baby Shampoo, ('No More Tears') but please don't use abrasives. |
Buy a mask online? Are you crazy?
Here is why you CAN easily buy a mask on the Internet. The reality is that most high-quality masks, including ours, fit most adults quite well. (It's only the low-quality masks that are difficult to find a good fit with because they don't actually fit anyone very well.) We are so sure these masks will fit that we encourage you to order one.
If you're not happy with the mask, just return it for a refund PLUS a $10 credit on your next purchase!
