Indispensible for clear vision on and off the slope: uvex lenses are designed for the most exacting requirements of winter sports. The injected decentered quality class 1 lenses (per EN 174) provide an absolutely distortion-free vision. Made of extremely durable polycarbonate, the lenses withstand temperatures of up to -40 °C without their mechanical strength being affected. The front side has a highly scratch-resistant coating, the back side improves visibility through the unique uvex supravsion® anti-fog coating. The UV absorbs directly embedded in the raw material filter UV radiation of up to 400 nm with 100% effectiveness.
Features of some frames also include:
Variotronic: The future before your eyes. Internal light sensor reacts to the incident light and activates the appropriate lens technology. Changes in a raction of a second or manually at the touch of a button. LCD (liquid crystal) film. Goes from Clear (90%) to red (53%) to blue (32%) to violet (11%).
Variomatic: Automatically reacts to every light situation. The photochromic lenses dose the shading in three levels of protection from S1 to S3 according to the light conditions.
Electric Ventilation: Perfect climate in the goggles and no fog on the lenses--a battery-driven mini ventilator integrated into the frame increases air circulation.
Direct Lens Ventilation: The Uvex Competence ensures constant, draft-free ventilation in the lens. A perfect climate. Fog-Free vision and unclouded skiing pleasure.
Helmet Compatible: Special frame construction or externally located headband hooks make the Uvex ski goggles helmet compatible for all day comfort and safety.
Direct Frame Ventilation: Uvex engineering competence ensures constant, draft-free ventilation through the frame. Sharp vision and unclouded skiing pleasure.
Take Off/Interchangeable Lenses: Innovative magnetic lens technology: the dark lens is fixed onto the base lens via mini magnets. This can be easily clicked on and off in no time--so you can quickly adjust to the weather conditions. The dark replacement lis in very thin, flexible and fits in any pocket.
CX: Magnetic interchangeable lens. Brilliant solutions are often simple: push the lens out from the inside, insert a new lens, done. Quick and easy.
UV Protection: Uvex means Ultraviolet Excluded. Lenses provide 100% UVA, UVB and UVC Protection.

*"S" Value is an internationally recognized standard that classifies optical lenses according to the amount of light transmitted by the lens. This is a useful measure to compare lenses and identify appropriate uses.
0=80 to 100% (virtually clear for debris and wind protection)
1=43 to 80% (for normal cloudy to partly cloudy conditions)
2=18 to 43% (for normal sunny to partly sunny conditions)
3=8 to 18% (for full sun)
4=3 to 8% (for intense bright light, like on summer glaciers)
