These are my first glasses from this company. The price may be intimidating, but you must not forget that they protect the most important human sense. The quality is high, if only because they are used by the American army.
ESS Crossblade One tactical glasses - Clear
ESS tactical glasses part of the Cross-Series line. Equipped with scratch-resistant and easily replaceable ballistic visors that do not distort the image across the entire field of view. The lenses provide 100% protection against UVA and UVB radiation. The design is developed to combine a high level of ballistic protection with optimal comfort during long hours of use. Thanks to the modular construction, the user can easily adapt the glasses to current conditions and individual preferences.
visors made of durable polycarbonate, DedBolt snap system
Visors made of 2.4 mm thick polycarbonate in Clear color provide a visible light transmission level of 90%, as well as 100% protection against UVA/UVB radiation. The application of ClearZone FlowCoat technology protects the external side of the visor from scratches and the internal from fogging. ESS Optics technology eliminates image distortions across the entire surface of the visor, allowing the user to maintain a natural perception of the surroundings and full sharpness of vision. The DedBolt system allows for quick and easy visor replacement without tools, enabling easy adaptation of the glasses to current lighting conditions. Compatibility with Cross-Series products allows for the exchange of visors for others in the series. In addition to the included clear lenses, a tinted visor can be purchased in the future. It is also possible to purchase and exchange the visor and nosepiece for the Naro version. This solution allows for adjusting the size of the Crossblade system to the user's face shape.
flexible frames, Tri-Tech Fit technology
Flexible frames are developed with Tri-Tech Fit technology, which aims to evenly distribute pressure and eliminate pressure points during wear. This ensures that the glasses fit well to various face shapes and maintain high comfort even during prolonged use. Users with vision impairments can utilize U-RX or UPLC Rx corrective inserts. Appropriate nosepieces (Crossblade U-Rx and Crossblade UPLC Rx) are necessary for their installation.

Tri-Tech Fit is a technology used in flexible glasses frames. It provides high wearing comfort and eliminates pressure points. It allows the glasses to fit the shape of the user's head.
DedBolt snap-in system allows for easy and very quick replacement of the visor - it is mounted by means of contoured notches on its edges and a hole in the center of the glasses.
ESS Optics is a standard used in visors that prevents image distortion and provides 100% UVA and UVB protection.
EN166 is a European standard for optical requirements and mechanical protection for glasses and goggles. Optical requirements include light transmission and diffusion, refractive properties, heat and UV resistance, corrosion and ignition. Mechanical protection is the resistance to object impact, within which there are 4 levels designated by the letters S, F, B and A, where S is the least protection and A is the highest.
MIL-PRF-32432 is an American military standard for glasses and goggles, including corrective glasses. According to this standard, a set of glasses should include spare lenses, a case, an instruction manual, a cleaning cloth and a strap, depending on the type of set. Goggles must also have a protective case in the set. Glasses and goggles must be compatible with a corrective insert. The standard specifies the goggles' ability to withstand impact from a .15-inch (3.8 mm) steel bullet weighing 0.376 grams at 200 m/s. In the case of goggles, the impact resistance of a .22-caliber bullet fired at a velocity of approximately 170 m/s.
Z87.1 standard developed by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) for the durability of eye protectors. The standard includes two types of tests (3 tests) for the impact resistance of the lens and the stability of its seating in the frame: resistance to High Mass and High Velocity objects.
