LENS TECHNOLOGY
The PX 5000 represents Vuarnet's extreme protection category, engineered for maximum UV defense and superior visual comfort. These mineral lenses feature multi-layered anti-reflective coatings that eliminate glare and bounce-back light while filtering all harmful UVA, UVB, and UVC radiation.
Handcrafted from the finest optical glass, each lens is ground and polished on both sides to guarantee distortion-free vision. Chemical tempering provides exceptional impact and scratch resistance, while the polished "in-mass" tint delivers stable, consistent color performance superior to surface-tinted alternatives.
The authentic Vuarnet "V" is etched into each lens as proof of genuineness.
