Wiley X CAPTIVATE™ Overview

The only contrast-enhancing glasses in the industry that meet EN. 166 & ANSI Z87.1 safety standards. CAPTIVATE™ lens technology filters out the light where colors merge, allowing more light that's easier for your eyes to see. This color-enhancing feature brings you a true-to-color experience with brighter blues, greens, and reds. By filtering out bad blue light, CAPTIVATE™ lenses increase clarity and depth perception, allowing distant objects to be seen more clearly. Offered in 8 different tint options, these lens colors allow you to fine-tune your choice of lens based on the specific needs of your environment. So no matter where your passions lie, CAPTIVATE™ lenses are there to make your days brighter and better.


Wiley X CAPTIVATE™ Polarized Red Mirror

The Wiley X CAPTIVATE™ Red Mirror is the perfect lens for bright, sunny days. A grey base lens provides brightness protection while keeping your vision true-to-color. This base is great for outdoor activities, deep-water fishing, general day driving, and any daytime sport. The choice for going with this red color is largely cosmetic so while its not perfectly subtle red its neither a solid mirror. The red, orange, and gold mirrors can impart a slight (about 5%) bluish to the lens as you look through it.

Tech Specs

CAPTIVATE™ polarized lenses filter out harmful rays and areas of confusing light for the human eye. While our eyes can easily differentiate the blue, green, and red wavelengths of the visible light spectrum, they struggle to decipher the areas where colors overlap. CAPTIVATE™ lenses filter out this confusing light, resulting in greater clarity and definition. You'll experience vibrant contrast and vivid detail when wearing Wiley X sunglasses with CAPTIVATE™ lens technology. To explore all the lens colors, visit our Wiley X CAPTIVATE™ Lens Guide!

Enhancing Colors
By filtering out confusing light where blue merges with green and green merges with red it’s easier for your eyes to see, resulting in enhanced blues, greens and reds for a true color experience.

Greater Clarity
Blue lights have shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies that create haze and scatters light. CAPTIVATE™ removes the haze and allows distant objects to be seen more clearly.

Increased Mood Levels
Allowing the beneficial side of blue light – blue-turquoise rays – to be seen helps maintain the body’s Circadian biological clock and the sleep/wake cycle, boosting awareness and elevates mood.

Increasing Contrast
Offering a variety of lens tint options so you can fine-tune your experience based on the specific needs of your environment.

Better Depth Perception
Eliminating the bad blue light haze and separating and enhancing colors in the visual spectrum.

Blocking UV and Bad Blue Light
Reducing the risk of damage to retinal cells by blocking the UV/HEV rays of light that are harmful to the eye. Wiley X CAPTIVATE™ is the only premium polarized eyewear brand that blocks out all bad blue light up to 430NM.
