Together with NASA’s Astronaut Corps and Sunlens Maker Christian Dalloz, Silhouette’s Austria-based R&D team developed a state-of-the-art lens technology. The lens was created to provide astronauts protection from the sun’s rays by reducing light transmission.
Ultraviolet exposure is a very important concern for astronauts, especially when working exposed in outer space during space walks or making external repairs. With the new lens introduced, they get more protection from UV rays.
This same technology, proven to be effective at protecting astronauts’ eyes in outer space can also protect the eyes of everyone on the planet. Although not as harmful as in outer space, UV rays still pose a major threat to our eyes, especially during prolonged or long periods of exposure. With the Silhouette technology used in outer space also being marketed here on the planet, eye protection has gone up to a new plain.
With astronauts as test subjects doing the quality testing, you can bet the new Silhouette Eyewear protection systems truly lives up to its UV protection capabilities as well as durability necessary during space walks.
With the Silhouette Eyewear line, you get intelligent eye protection. Our eyes are not able to distinguish between good and harmful rays, Silhouette Sunglasses can.

Plus, it has five layers of anti-reflective coating inside the lenses dramatically reducing glare and reflection.
