Oakley Prescription Lenses
High-Tech Lenses for the Digital Age
Plutonite: Oakley's Plutonite® lens material is engineered to stop every
wavelength of ultraviolet radiation, not just the lower energy form called "UVA". In
fact, Plutonite® inherently blocks 100% of UVA, UVB, UVC and harmful blue light up to
400 nanometers. The protection is built into the lens material. It's not a thin
surface coating that can become scratched, leaving your dilated pupils exposed
to UV leaks.
Iridium Coating: Optional Iridium® lens coatings allow you to tune
transmission for specific light conditions. Superheated metal oxides are fused
to the lens at the molecular level, permanently bonding to create an optically
uniform layer.
Light Weight: Oakley prescription lenses are engineered with Oakley's
proprietary Plutonite, an ultra-lightweight material that provides you optimum
performance with maximum comfort.
Optical Precision: Oakley prescription lenses are ground to your individual
prescription with optical precision that exceeds industry standards. The Oakley
RX system maps light rays in a 3D grid to achieve precise coordination with your
optical lobes and the entire surface of each custom ground lens.
XYZ Optics®: Oakley's patented XYZ Optics® maintains visual clarity
at all angles of view, even at the edge of raked-back lens contours that maximize
peripheral vision and protection. Conventional eyewear bends light rays and distorts
vision at the lens periphery, but XYZ Optics® maps the full lens contour to the
human eye, ensuring razor-sharp vision at all angles.
Impact Resistant: Oakley premium eyewear surpasses the protection requirements
for high-mass impact, as defined by The American National Standards Institute (ANSI).
Oakley premium eyewear also surpasses the ANSI Z87.1 test for high-velocity
impact protection.
Color Inherence: Oakley RX lenses utilize color inherent technology that
integrates the color deep within the lens material. Plutonite lenses are never
tinted so the color is always rich and permanent and unlike surface tints, it
will never fade.
Oakley prescription sunglass lenses are the ideal lenses for people who spend
a lot of time outdoors and need permanant sunglasses.
For those who are in-and-out of doors on a frequent basis, don't forget FramesDirect.com
also offers Transitions lenses for regular
plastic lenses that change from light to dark as you move in and out of UV light.
