POC Cornea Flow Goggles
Specialising in high-end mountain bike and ski protective gear, POC Sports is a swedish brand that has burst onto the downhill mountain bike scene with a range of body armour and full face helmets that are here to rival, and exceed, the best. With a fresh approach that balances a scientific background with real world rider feedback, the POC body armour range has a focus on rider safety like no other brand. So if you're looking for high-end bike wear that fits as good as it looks, POC protection is a new alternative to the usual motorbike-styled products on the market, packed with the kind of technology that will keep you out of hospital and on the bike.
Rather than re-inventing the wheel, POC approached the Cornea Flow goggles just the same as they do with any mountain bike product - address the failings of current designs on the market and make theirs the best.
So what's wrong with the current crop of goggles on the market then?
Well one area that tends to divide riders on whether they ride with goggles or not is the limitations they put on your field of vision; do I protect my eyes from airborne objects and wind or do I keep my peripheral vision? With the POC Cornea Flow goggles, it is safe to say that you can have both.
By attaching the lens externally rather than internally, POC have managed to widen the field of vision and reduce the "horse blinkers" affect you get with lesser goggles. This patent-pending design means you can pick up more obstacles on the side of the trail and maintain better sight through the corners, resulting in you travelling faster and safer than before. Simple really.
From POC:
"The patent pended Cornea is based on the POC innovation of attaching the lens on the outside of the frame, to enlarge the field of view. Cornea has extension bars which gives a much better fit to the face. The lens is a perfectly shaped, injected cylindrical PC screen for superb optical qualities. To avoid steaming the inner lens is made of CP and laminated exactly parallel to the outer lens".
