Shedding Light on UV Safety
You're out in the sun, soaking up the rays, but there's more than meets the eye.
Hidden within sunlight are ultraviolet (UV) rays, which are a form of potentially harmful electromagnetic radiation emitted by the sun. These UV rays are classified into three types: UVA, UVB, and UVC. While the Earth's ozone layer absorbs the majority of UVC rays, UVA and UVB rays can still penetrate the surface and pose significant risks to your eye health over time.
Rec Specs, with its commitment to eye safety, incorporates advanced lens technology that offers optimal UV protection.
UV-Blocking Lens Materials
Polarized Lenses
Rec Specs performance sunglasses feature polarized lenses that not only offer UV protection but also minimize glare. Polarized lenses have a unique filter that blocks intense reflected light, such as sunlight bouncing off water, snow, or shiny surfaces. These enhance visual clarity, reduce eye strain, and improve overall comfort, especially in bright outdoor conditions.
Photochromic Lenses
Rec Specs also offers lenses that have the ability to automatically adjust their tint or “transition” from clear to tinted based on the intensity of UV light. When exposed to UV rays outdoors, the lenses darken to provide full UV protection. In indoor environments, they quickly and seamlessly become clear. This technology ensures continuous UV protection without the need to switch between sunglasses and regular eyeglasses.
2x2 ProCoat
Rec Specs exceptionally offers a revolutionary, proprietary lens coating technology that pairs double-sided, anti-reflective fast fog recovery coating with the base lens of your choice, reducing glare indoors and out while maximizing recovery for clear vision.
