Special coatings uvex supravision extreme The lenses have a scratch-resistant coating on the outside and a highly effectively anti-fog coating on the inside. The inside of the lenses will not fog up as the coating never reaches the point of saturation. The anti-fog properties are permanent and won’t wash off, even after repeated cleaning. Suitable for workplaces with prolonged exposure to high levels of condensation and dirt. uvex supravision ETC (extreme temperature conditions) Coated lenses will not fog up, as the coating never reaches the point of saturation. The anti-fog properties are...

uvex UV400 100% UV protection. 100% safety. 100% uvex. The EN166/170 standard requires safety eyewear to provide UV protection up to 380 nm. The latest scientific findings show that this is not enough. The WHO recommends UV protection up to 400 nm. “The reasons why the WHO recommends UV400 protection are clear. The outer tissues of the eye, cornea and lens fully absorb UV light. While UVB light primarily damages the genetic material, UVA rays penetrate deeper, cause thermal damage and magnify the effects of UVB light.” Even without sun, UV rays can still put strain on the eye When working...

uvex CBR65 Fatigue-free, comfortable vision Preventive protection against blue light The properties of uvex CBR65 lens technology are significantly different to those of uvex UV400. uvex CBR65 blocks 100% of UV rays and filters high-energy visible light (HEV)-which causes particular strain on the retina in the range from 380 nm to 450 nm-by up to 50%. Above the 450 nm range, only 60-70% of light can reach the retina. Contrast 50% blue light reduction at 450 nm Contrast enhancement Better contrast for clearer vision, helping to reduce strain on the eyes - even in diffused light. Blue light...
