Glasses to use in low light conditions?
« on: April 16, 2013, 09:26:43 AM »

Sometimes I have hard time sighting the ball when it travels fast (When its low light ). Wondering if there are some kind of spectacles which will help you in low light conditions?

I have seen some international players use yellow colour ones when its low light.

yellow lenses do generally work better in low light.

I have a set of these. I use them for cycling. The yellow lenses do work well in Low Light, but are terrible in the dark!

The other thing to suggest is fluorescent orange or pink balls...

I'm not sure what they are, but I havea  pair with reddish lenses that cause the cricket ball to stand out!
