The glasses are comfortable and pleasant to wear. Unfortunately, it turned out that the photochromic effect does not work under a baseball cap. Without the cap, everything is great and I can recommend these excellent glasses.

Wiley X Ozone Tactical Glasses - Captivate Polarized Blue Mirror/Matte Grey
Well-fitted, comfortable protective grey eyewear featuring a wide frame designed to block peripheral light. Lens mechanical strength ensures reliable protection against fragments, ricochets, and various projectiles, fully compliant with Class F standards (shielding against objects weighing 0.86 g at velocities up to 45 m/s).
Wiley X stands among the top providers of advanced eye protection for United States military personnel, athletes, and individuals with an active outdoor lifestyle.
triloid frames, hvp technology
Constructed from tough Triloid material, the frames deliver outstanding durability. The ergonomic design ensures a secure fit without sacrificing comfort, even when wearing headphones or ear protection. Rubberized, non-slip nose pads and temple tips keep the eyewear securely in place during movement. The Ozone model shields the eyes from both mechanical hazards and the damaging effects of intense light. Both frames and lenses utilize HVP (High Velocity Protection) technology, offering reliable defense against high-velocity impacts. Integrated with a CLICK A.I.R (Air Intake Regulator) seal, the glasses feature a quick-click ventilation system to enhance airflow and effectively minimize fogging.
Polycarbonate lenses with T-Shell coating and Captivate technology
Blue lenses constructed from shatter-resistant Selenite polycarbonate with Captivate technology are engineered to balance the visible light spectrum, ensuring light is distributed to the eye more evenly. These lenses preserve a neutral color balance while providing an enhanced perception of greens. Glare is minimized, and both contrast and color clarity are improved in outdoor settings. Offering a light transmission rate of 15%, they deliver optimal performance in bright sunlight and intense lighting conditions. Eyes are shielded from harmful ultraviolet rays, including UVA and UVB, in addition to high-energy blue light (HEV). An Oleophobic coating resists the adherence of dust, dirt, oil, snow, and water, allowing for significantly easier cleaning compared to conventional uncoated lenses.
Standards and certifications
- ANSI Z87.1+ (High Mass Protection): In compliance with this standard, both the lenses and frame must endure the force of a 0.5 kg object dropped from a height of roughly 130 centimeters.
- ANSI Z87.1+ (High Velocity Protection): Meeting this standard, the frame and visor are capable of resisting the impact of a 6.35 mm steel ball propelled at a velocity of 164.6 km/h (45 m/s).
- Standard EN.166F: Conforming to the European standard for medium energy impact protection, the frame and visors can withstand collisions with a 6 mm steel ball weighing 0.86 g and traveling at 162 km/h.

I was really looking forward to these glasses, but for two reasons they didn't work for me: They were uncomfortable for me, pressing against my ears. The level of darkening depends on UV radiation— I noticed that the automatic darkening did not work either in the car or in winter sunlight.
-
I am delighted with the Wiley X Ozone tactical glasses! The photochromic lenses are a real find—they adjust themselves to the light, and my eyes don't get tired. Thanks to the removable seal, the glasses fit snugly to my face, protecting me from dust and wind. This is my favorite accessory for active recreation.

The glasses are comfortable; they are great for driving, cycling, and kayaking. The set includes a soft case, temple straps, and a gasket that fits the face well, plus it has the useful option of creating 'ventilation'. So far, I am satisfied.

The glasses are comfortable and fit well. Unfortunately, it turned out that photochromic lenses are not for me. I didn't anticipate that under a cap with a visor, the glasses wouldn't darken. Without the cap, they worked very well. However, I prefer classic sunglasses. The store accepted the return, and I bought another pair—in fact, the same ones but with dark lenses, which I am very satisfied with.

The color changes quickly, the glasses are comfortable and stable on the head. The gasket and strap are useful on the bike. Luckily, I haven't tested their durability yet.
