What's the difference between Standard lenses and SpectraBoost™ lenses?Updated 6 hours ago

Both are high-quality replacement lenses. The difference is what they're engineered to do.

Standard lenses

Standard lenses do exactly what they're supposed to: reduce overall brightness, protect your eyes from UV, and keep the view comfortable across a wide range of everyday conditions. They're a solid, reliable choice for most situations.

Available as:

  • Standard (non-polarized) — for travel, everyday outdoor wear, and casual use.
  • Standard Polarized — adds glare reduction for driving, fishing, boating, and high-glare outdoor activities.

SpectraBoost™ lenses

SpectraBoost™ adds color enhancing technology on top of everything Standard lenses already do. By filtering overlapping color wavelengths, SpectraBoost™ sharpens contrast and brings natural vibrancy forward — so terrain has more definition, surfaces are easier to read, and details that would otherwise blur together stand apart.

Available as:

  • SpectraBoost™ (non-polarized) — color enhancing contrast with preserved depth perception and higher VLT. Built for skiing, mountain biking, trail running, and fast-reaction sports.
  • SpectraBoost™ Polarized — color enhancing contrast plus glare reduction. Built for driving, fishing, boating, and long days in high-glare conditions.


Which should I choose?

If your outdoor use is casual — travel, everyday errands, relaxed time outside — Standard lenses are a great fit. If your outdoor life is more active, or you're in conditions where contrast and terrain definition affect your performance or safety, SpectraBoost™ is worth the upgrade.

💡 Tip: Both Standard and SpectraBoost™ are available in polarized and non-polarized.
