The lenses feature Revision's photochromic technology that adjusts to any lighting condition in seconds. Prescription lenses are available. The frame material is resistant to chemical, moisture, and temperature damage. Features of the Hellfly Ballistic Sunglasses include: 2.2mm-thick polycarbonate lenses that are hard coated for resistance to scratches, 100% protection from UV-A, UV-B, and UV-C rays, and overmolded temples and an adjustable nosepiece for comfort. A variety of frame and lens colors are available. Buyers can choose polarized or photochromic lenses.
Designed for tactical operators the new Active Series WX Omega Black Ops edition from Wiley X, matches Smoke Grey lenses with an understated, stealthy Matte Black frame (with black-on-black WX logo). Like all Wiley X Active Series models, the WX Omega Black Ops features a soft rubberized nose bridge and/or temple tips to ensure a snug, yet comfortable fit—even during hot, sweaty weather and rigorous outdoor activities. Prescription lenses are available. Wiley X says its Digiforce digital Rx lens technology provides state-of-the-art, no compromise vision protection solution for tactical wearers who require prescription lenses.
