Short Nose Optivizor, Dark Tint
£71.00 GBP
The Short Nose style of Optivizor is available in nine sizes and is suitable for breeds such as Pug, Shih Tzu, English Bulldog and Dogue de Bordeaux.
This new style will be available from Spring 2026
All styles come with UV protection. The dark tint is ideal for photo-sensitivity, it reduces the lighting level so it’s best for outdoors only, limiting UV exposure for eye conditions such as pannus and glaucoma.
Whilst wearing the Optivizor your dog will still be able to eat, drink and sniff normally. Their ears stay on the outside and they can move their head to respond to what they see and hear when they are being walked.
Each Optivizor has a unique design that is supported by a headrest that creates a cushioned space between the dog’s face and the surface of the visor, allowing air to circulate inside, and deflection of dust and sand particles from oncoming winds.
Optivizors can also be worn preventively by dogs that just seem to love jumping into brambles and by blind dogs to protect their face from bumps and scrapes and improve their self-confidence.
Pugs are usually one of three sizes - Mini, Toy or Small. Toy is the most popular size for a pug. If your pug has exophthalmos (proptosis) you may need a slightly larger size and to add some internal padding.
Benefits of The Optivizor
The Optivizor provides advanced eye and face protection for dogs, with physical protection for your dog’s face, and UV protection for their eyes.
Additional benefits:
- eat and drink normally
- ears are on the outside
- freedom to move around
The Optivizor is available in a wide range of sizes and styles and is adjustable to give your dog a comfortable fit.

How to Measure
Please see our size guide for full details and typical sizes for your breed.
Head Length (normal and long nose) measure from the the tip of the dog’s nose to the mid-point of the back of the ears. Measure in a straight line and do not follow the contours of the dog’s face.
Weight (normal nose) check the current weight of your dog. Your vet will usually have a record of this. To weigh small dogs using bathroom scales you can carry them for a first measurement, put them down and measure your own weight, and then deduct one reading from the other.
Circumference (short nose) measure the head circumference around the dog’s head from the middle of the ears, down under the chin and back up to the ears.
