Spend less time searching for lost balls and more time playing with these Golf-Ball Finding Glasses.

The lenses of these glasses block out 90% of long wavelength light (dark colors such as greens and browns), and let shorter wavelength light (such as whites and yellows) pass through unimpeded, so that golf balls are easy to find.

You can buy the Golf-Ball Finding Glasses at Hammacher Schlemmer.

“Developed in Canada by two nuclear engineers who grew tired of losing golf balls to dense rough, these glasses rely not only on their patented light-selective pigmented lenses, but on the principles of visual physiology as well: when scanning a large area (such as a fairway), many objects that are in plain view dont register to the viewer, simply because of the overwhelming amount of visual information. When the darker hues are filtered out of the field of vision, there are significantly fewer objects for the brain to process, and thus a golf ball stands out even more readily. The technology behind these lenses underwent six years of research and development, and incorporates a plastic resin frame with formfitting wrap-around styling to eliminate peripheral light. Frame is flexible and fits comfortably without pressure points; the lenses are scratch-resistant polycarbonate. Includes durable nylon carrying case for quick access to lenses during play; case clips to belt or golf bag.”
