There are 2 types of lenses being used by snow goggle companies, spherical and cylindrical, both offer\u00a0great performance and it really comes down to your budget. Your style points will be higher with the spherical lens, but in our opinion you will see just as well and get great performance\u00a0with a cylindrical lens. Most companies offer the spherical in their higher end frames, and cylindrical in the lower priced products. The spherical lens looks curved, and helps maximize your field of view and generally comes in med to large sized frames.\u00a0Spherical lenses \u00a0mimic the curvature of your eye to help give you superior vision in all directions.\u00a0 At Action Sport Optics<\/span><\/a><\/span> we offer a great selection of spherical lens\u00a0options from respected brands\u00a0like the Spy Platoon<\/span><\/a>\u00a0<\/span>, Dragon APX<\/span><\/a><\/span>\u00a0, Anon Comrade<\/span><\/a>\u00a0<\/span>, and the Scott Fix<\/span><\/a><\/span>\u00a0.\u00a0 The cylindrical lens is also a great option, it is more flat and low profile, it does not have the curve that mimics the eyeball like the spherical lens.\u00a0 The cylindrical lens is a bit more flexible and\u00a0provides great protection, style, and performance\u00a0at a cheaper price.\u00a0\u00a0Action Sport Optics\u00a0also has a great selection of\u00a0cylindrical lens\u00a0options from respected brands like\u00a0the\u00a0 Spy Zed<\/span><\/a><\/span>\u00a0, Dragon DX <\/span><\/a><\/span>, and the\u00a0Anon Helix<\/span><\/a><\/span>\u00a0.<\/p>\n
