HydroOptix.BIZ – for Visionary Scuba Professionals

Once-Skeptical Dive Instructors in 85 countries agree,
"Seeing is Believing!"


The Problems we solve:

1) Flat dive masks narrow your view.
So-called panoramic flat masks dangerously narrow your field-of-view to just 71-degrees when submerged. Over 75% of your normal field-of-view is blocked! "That’s the way it's always been," is no reason to ignore innovation!

 HydroOptix Double-Dome masks restore superior Situational Awareness (SA), and our 4.5DD and 3.5DD masks also restore normal eye-hand coordination.
Expand your Situational Awareness to improve:
  • Buddy safety
  • Navigation
  • Buoyancy control

2) The "Magic Bifocal" Phenomenon
This works great for naturally nearsighted divers in "the zone." Not in the zone? Just wear contact lenses (safe and easy with little training.)
Curing Tunnel Vision Makes Diving Safer and More Fun


Traditional flat dive masks trick your brain with a powerful optical illusion. Underwater refraction makes you believe that your field-of-view is much greater than it really is. Physiological feedback confirms that your eyes scan far left, right, up, and down. But if you reach out your arms to match your eyeballs' pointing angle...  you cannot see your arms! Only when your arms arc inward, closer to the axis where your nose points, can you see your arms.
When you cannot see in,
the diver cannot see out

This diver could not see the photographer take
the picture because of "Total Internal Reflection"

We do not Protect what we do not LOVE
We do not Love what we do not KNOW
We do not Know what we cannot SEE

Looking through a Double-Dome mask does NOT feel special
Natural panoramic vision is something we have learned to expect from the day we were born. So when divers experience Double-Dome vision -- with no immediate baseline comparison -- they are not impressed.
 But when divers do an A-to-B comparison (Flat vs. Double-Dome) with their body in a fixed position, looking at fixed reference points, even divers with decades of experience are surprised to realize that over 75% of their natural view is blocked.

DEC-Pros
These Eye-Care Professionals are a great source for contact lenses for 20/20 divers wanting to use a Double-Dome mask.  If divers already have an eye doctor they do not have to change. The doctor learns the advantages of Double-Dome masks in 2 minutes (they are already trained in optics).

Many DEC-Pros are divers themselves -- HydroOptix helps dive shops form a mutually beneficial working relationship with nearby DECs.  You would be surprised how many eye doctors already dive, or have always want to learn to dive! 


Diving with a Double-Dome dive mask gets you one step closer to becoming a Master Scuba Diver
