The sunglasses here at Technical
Gear are state of the art with trendy, electronic technology.
Look for their creative add-ons, which come with their most popular polarized
sunglasses. For those with a discerning taste, Oakley is the brand name to be
worn by all.
Oakley polarized sunglasses are the result of smart science combined with
multiple years of market pleasing experience.
Look for the patented XYZ Optics® and be certain of full visual clarity
and from every possible angle. To go along with this, you can be assured of a
leading edge raked-back lens design that contours perfectly around the eyes.
This is not only cosmetic excellence -- this is a bonus in peripheral vision
and undeniable protection to that area. Eyewear of lesser quality can only offer
technology that bends light rays and causes distorted vision at the lens periphery.
The XYZ Optics® technology brings clarity of the highest order to the eye
and along with that, brilliant color. You can have this experience at virtually
any angle.
Learn about the following five clarity ratings:
- Refractive Power: Don’t be fooled by cheap imitations. Your non-prescription
lenses are sometimes peddled as being a prescription. A lens that magnifies does
that alone and should not be mistaken for a product that corrects your eyesight.
- Astigmatism: This occurs when a lens separates light either in front of
or behind the retina. From this comes a reduction in visual clarity and this
causes an increase in distortion.
- Definition Pattern: Anyone can try this test at home. Draw three lines and
space them out thinly. Step away and back from the paper and the lines will start
to blur into each other. This is called distortion. This is what will result
if you wear poorer quality lenses, you shorten that distance.
- Prismatic Power: This results when light rays are bent at a wrong angle.
When this happens, the stationary object will appear to have moved somewhat from
where it originated.
- Prismatic Imbalance: This is reached when both lenses are working in good
symmetry. Avoid those headaches caused by eyestrain when there is more bending
of light than the other.
Also, make note that the Prismatic Power and Prismatic Imbalance both influence
depth perception and visual clarity.
Oakley has successfully engineered the science of eyewear and these results
in state of the art design in:
- Shape of Lens: Spherical and Toric. You can see these in the M Frame we
offer.
- Lens Definitions: The Lens Wrap and the Lens Rake Method.
- Ansi Z87.1: The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) administers
the U.S. voluntary standardization system for eyewear and face protection. The
ANSI Z87.1 testing series measures the optical performance of eyewear, and is
a good and reliable source for consumers wanting to know the safety rating for
any eyewear they plan to use.
Make no mistake about it. Oakley polarized sunglasses are superior in both
quality and design, and this is why you will find them here at Technical Gear.
