Salt spray, grime, and harsh marine conditions can quickly turn a clear view into a frustrating one. SALTSHIELD Optics is being developed specifically for the way boaters actually use and care for their optics.
Built on the Water. Backed by Science.
Join the SALTSHIELD Optics Founding ListA purpose-built approach to caring for the optics boaters rely on—from sunglasses and camera lenses to marine electronics and optical gear.
SALTSHIELD Optics is being developed as a complete marine optical-care system—not simply another package of lens wipes.
Pre-moistened optical wipes designed for quick, convenient cleaning when you're on the water.
A rugged, marine-ready enclosure keeps your optical-care essentials accessible and protected.
A purpose-built system helps keep used wipes and packaging contained rather than loose around the boat.
SALTSHIELD Optics was born from a simple observation:
The products boaters use to clean their optics weren't designed around the realities of boating.
We're developing SALTSHIELD Optics around those realities.
Founded by optometrist and coastal angler Ryan Socwell, SALTSHIELD Optics combines professional optical expertise with firsthand experience on the water to develop a better way to care for optics in marine environments.

The goal is simple: build something worth putting on your boat.
