Oakley has partnered with Transitions Optical to create lenses that darken and lighten automatically. The patented innovations of Oakley optics are blended with photochromic technology which actively tunes the amount of light that reaches your eyes. Even better, the lenses include base colors that precisely balance light transmission and boost visual contrast to improve depth perception. This unique blend of innovations gives you the ultimate in performance and comfort while improving safety in environments ranging from overcast to bright sun.
An open-edge design of lightweight O MATTER® frame material, BOTTLECAP™ offers an unobstructed field of downward view. HIGH DEFINITION OPTICS® (HDO®) gives you unbeatable clarity, even with lens curvature that opens peripheral vision. This durable optical instrument also provides 100% UV filtering and impact protection that meets all ANSI Z87.1 standards. Its sculpturally integrated hinges are engineered with dual cam action and finished with true metal icons.
Providing a comfortable fit on all facial sizes, the BOTTLECAP™ frame is especially well suited for small to medium-size faces, due to contouring that eliminates the wide corners of conventional sunglass frames.
Please note: These photochromic lenses are enhanced with performance base colors, so they do not fade to clear in the absence of sunlight. See our prescription lenses for additional options in photochromic lens technology. Also note that photochromic lenses darken in response to UV light, and car windshields block most UV.
