Dr. Linda Daniar is a member of our pickleball community and is pleased to offer prescription protective eyewear at very competitive prices.
Eye protection is critical as pickleballs can cause serious eye injuries. Pickleballs hit directly by your opponent, a glance off your own paddle or your partner’s paddle, or even from a neighbouring court can cause a serious injury. A small investment will protect you from damaging your eyes.
Dr. Daniar carries a variety of Oakley frames and will ensure your corrective lenses meet your needs. Also available are more cost-friendly frames. Either way, Dr. Daniar will provide you the eye protection you need to enjoy the sport of pickleball. Just mention you are a member of the Pickleball Community and you will be on your way to eye safety.
Dr. Danier is located at 11 Erb St in Waterloo and can be reached at 519-746-1232.
