OAKLEY IRIDIUM LENSES are designed to change the balance of light that enters the eye. The rigid polycarbonate resin material allows an apparent, predictable performance with virtually no distortion of lens materials.

Iridium Lens Colors

Iridium lens colors are available in blue, red, yellow, and orange using four different mirrored coatings at a standard distance.

Oakley has developed an iridium coating that helps filter out specific colors to produce a more pleasant color experience in extremely bright light. The four available lenses are blue, red, yellow, and orange by using four different mirrored coatings at a standard distance.
