Oakley has just announced the release of their Radar® EV eye protection. The latest enhancement in eye protection includes the patented Oakley Prizm Lens Technology providing the user an incredibly clear view free of distortions.

Oakley eye pro are some of the most sought after products for eye protection, and sight enhancement in the world. Having over 30 years of experience, Oakley has continued to enhance their product offerings and commands a major share of the market for eye protection.

Eye protection goes far beyond simple UVA and UVB light radiation. In law enforcement, an officer’s eye protection must also include protection against ballistic impacts. Oakley is a leader in combining protection from the sun’s harmful rays, and lenses that include superior ballistic protection as well.

Oakley Radar EV Features

  • ENGINEERED FOR MAXIMIZED AIRFLOW
    Even the best aerodynamics won’t matter if you’re overheating and distracted by sweat, so Radar EV is engineered for ventilation that assists evaporative cooling while keeping airflow away from your eyes.
  • PRIZM LENS TECHNOLOGY
  • Lens technology that fine-tunes vision for specific sports and environments.
  • RADAR EV PITCH
    With subtle curvature at its bottom edge, this lens shape provides even more coverage for downward vision. Radar EV Pitch also extends the upper field of view, so your vertical range of vision is maximized.
  • RADAR EV PATH
    Contouring at the bottom makes Radar EV Path a good choice if performance-sized lenses sometimes touch your cheeks. The lens shape also enhances performance by extending the upper field of view.
  • PERFORMANCE IS A THING OF BEAUTY
    From the comfort and protection of its lightweight yet durable O Matter® frame material to the sure grip of its Unobtainium® components, this premium design builds on the legacy of Radar innovation and style.
  • MSRP – $190.00; Polarized Lenses – $230.00.

Ballistic Protection

Oakley lenses are tested under extreme circumstances to guarantee uncompromising protection against high-mass and high-velocity impact that no other lens offers. Oakley accomplishes this protection through their Plutonite®, durable and optically pure lens material.

Lens Quality and Clarity

Prizm™ lenses fine-tune vision for specific sports and environments by emphasizing colors where the eye is most sensitive to detail, and improves performance and safety by enhancing vision. The Radar EV comes with the option of the Pitch lens design with an upward curvature at the bottom of the lens, or the Path lens design with a more straight pattern.

Oakley Radar EV in Law Enforcement

Officers should make every effort to protect their vision, and this goes well beyond simple sunglasses. Oakley offers superior lens clarity, UVA and UVB protection, but also provides some of the industry’s best ballistic protection.  Protection from ballistic threats is not just a SWAT thing. Today’s patrol officers and detectives are facing more calls to respond to active threats. Patrol officers can provide themselves with stylish sunglasses that also protect their eyes from projectiles. The Oakley Radar EV are a very nice option for those purposes.
