Oakley’s Optical Superiority of Polarized Lenses

Oakley’s Extensive Lens Options

Oakley Lens Options
Form meets function in everything we do. And the same should apply to the eyewear you choose. With more lens tint options than any other manufacturer, Oakley gives you the power to pick the right tint for your polarized lenses.

Oakley Polarized Impact Resistance Technology

Oakley's Impact Resistance Technology
Gravel shoots. Dirt flings. Sand flies. When you’re out there in the world, your eyes are the target for a lot of incoming flak. That’s why Oakley Polarized eyewear is the toughest in the business. The materials and geometry we use in our lenses and frames pass all American National Standards Institute impact testing requirements, which is the industrial standard for high-mass and high-velocity impact testing (ANSI Z87.1.)
Oakley’s Polarized Infusion Molding Technology

Oakley Infusion Molding Technology
With specially formulated polymers infused into our lenses, you get superior optics that are the essence of clarity. By bonding on the molecular level, glare protection technology can’t be rubbed or worn off. Our competition uses a cheaper, “sandwich†method that glues a film between the lenses which increases distortion and decreases clarity. No clarity? No good. Go with Oakley’s polarized lenses with infusion molding when you need crisp, clear vision.
Oakley’s Polarized HDO Technology

Oakley’s High Definition Optics® (HDO)® Technology
Let’s be clear, Oakley’s High Definition Optics® (HDO)® makes distortion disappear. No more seeing things here that really aren’t there and vice versa. With HDO, you’ll find rocks, flagsticks, and steps where they are supposed to be. Not only does HDO meet the American National Standards Institute clarity testing requirements, it exceeds them.
