In the world of shooting, accuracy is the key to success. Whether you are a sport shooter or a security professional, the quality of your equipment can make all the difference. Among the essential items of your gear are shooting glasses. But how do you choose the pair that will best meet your needs while delivering exceptional optical quality? Today we walk you through the criteria to consider when selecting your shooting glasses.
Optical Quality: Your Eyesight, Your Priority
When you take aim, every detail counts. That is why the optical quality of your shooting glasses is essential. Swisseyes products stand out for their high-quality lenses, offering exceptional clarity and sharp vision, even in difficult lighting conditions.
Whether you are in bright sunlight or in low-light conditions, you can rely on the optical performance of Swisseyes glasses to stay focused on your target.
Comfort and Durability: The Key to Lasting Performance
Shooting often demands prolonged concentration and physical stability. That is why the comfort and durability of shooting glasses are essential.
Opt for lightweight, hard-wearing materials that provide a comfortable fit even during extended shooting sessions. And pay attention to how your glasses are secured, too.
Swisseyes has chosen polycarbonate: a lightweight, impact-resistant and transparent material. Its durability and scratch protection make it a safe, reliable choice for precise aiming and optimal safety. For a better fit, the brand has opted for head straps for improved stability and comfort — as on the Blackhawk glasses.
Eye Protection: Guaranteeing Your Safety
Safety is an absolute priority in any shooting activity. With that in mind, you need to pay close attention to the standards your glasses meet.
The key standards to look for when choosing shooting glasses are:
1. Military standards:
- MIL-PRF-31013/32432: these standards require rigorous impact resistance to ensure safety in every situation.
- MIL-DTL-43511D: focuses specifically on ballistic protection, ensuring reliable performance in extreme conditions.
- STANAG 2920/4296: meets the strict requirements of NATO armed forces for ballistic protection and impact resistance.
2. European and American standards:
- EN 12312–1: guarantees protection against harmful solar radiation while maintaining optimal optical quality.
- ANSI Z87.1: a well-established American standard that ensures adequate protection against hazards such as impacts and chemical splashes.
- EN 166F: covers a wide range of potential hazards, guaranteeing complete protection in a variety of environments.
- EN 166BTKN, EN 172 and EN 166FT: set specific criteria for impact resistance, solar radiation filtering and protection against particles and liquid splashes.
Swisseyes shooting glasses meet these standards. What's more, their wraparound design provides increased lateral protection, minimizing the risk of eye injury.
Versatility: Adapting to Every Situation
Whether you practice rifle shooting, sport shooting or are on a tactical mission, your glasses must adapt to every situation. Swisseyes shooting glasses offer exceptional versatility, with a range of models designed to meet the specific needs of each discipline.
From tinted lenses that reduce glare to enhanced contrast for better target perception.
