Replacement lenses for WX JAKL glasses CAPTIVATE™ RED

CAPTIVATE™ lens technology redefines what you can expect from sunglasses. At the heart of this technology is a filter that blocks harmful light whilst enhancing colours and contrast and increasing clarity. CAPTIVATE™ lenses also filter out optical haze and saturate colours, leading to a much better perception of space and depth. CAPTIVATE™ eliminates harmful UV and HEV radiation, which causes macular degeneration and cataracts.

The anti-reflective coating eliminates distracting light reflections on the back surface of the lenses and ensures that light is not reflected back into the eyes, thereby preventing visual distortion. Lenses with an anti-reflective coating reduce glare and not only provide you with greater comfort and clearer vision, but also ensure optimal conditions for your polarising filter.

All Wiley X lenses feature the patented T-Shell™ coating. This coating prevents accidental damage to the lenses. When you choose Wiley X glasses, you get not only lenses made from top-quality materials, but also a premium finish that ensures your product will last for years to come.

The oleophobic coating is a protective layer that prevents smudges. Applying this coating gives you lenses with a much smoother surface, which helps prevent dust, oil, dirt and water from sticking to the lenses. Ultimately, this prevents smudges and water spots from forming on the lenses, making them easier to clean and helping you maintain a clean surface and perfect visibility for longer.

All Wiley X glasses are supplied with lenses made from Selenite™ polycarbonate, whose structure consists of carbon and phenol atoms. These lenses offer up to ten times greater durability than standard glass lenses, whilst remaining lighter in weight. The reliability and, above all, the safety of the lenses are certified by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). Despite their strength and weight, the lenses do not cause image distortion or reduce optical accuracy.

The ANSI Z87.1 safety standard sets a clear benchmark for eye protection when wearing sunglasses. This standard is defined by the American National Standards Institute. ANSI Z87.1 tests examine the mechanical resistance of the glasses and their protection against UV radiation according to very strict criteria.

Wiley X glasses that meet this standard are tested against the impact of a high-speed steel projectile 6.35 mm in diameter travelling at 164.6 km/h, and against the impact of a 500 g pointed cone dropped from a height of 127 cm.

ISO 12312-1 is a standard setting out clear safety requirements for protection against potentially harmful solar radiation during normal wear and whilst driving a motor vehicle. ISO 12312-1 is one of the standards which, once met, allows the CE mark to be used for products intended for use in EU countries.

A ballistic standard covering the Military Combat Eye Protection (MCEP) system. Compliance with this standard guarantees eye protection against ballistic fragmentation, electromagnetic radiation and sand. Glasses complying with this standard must withstand impact from a .15 calibre projectile travelling at a speed of 768–796 km/h. Glasses meeting this standard are commonly used by most NATO armies.
