PRESCRIPTION LENS
Flat sport frames that let light
in from all directions have become a thing of the past. And Wiley
X is one of the few companies that can prescribe frames
with an 8 base curvature. Simply select a lens shade and coating and Wiley
X will fill the frame of your choice with the most impact resistant lens material
there is. Bronze Brown, Clear as Crystal, Lightning Yellow and Neutral Slate
tints are available with the options of adding our 12-coat, crimson red, silver,
or blue mirror finish. We also offer the option of having your prescription
filled with polarized lenses for added glare reduction.
All Wiley X Eyewear will accept prescription lenses with the
exception of the following models: B-2, CQC, FL-1, FL-2, Icon,
P-36, PT-1, Saber and Squeeze.
These options are not listed on the website, so just type in
which method you would like in the comments box and the difference
will be charged when we receive the order. Neither of these
options are available for APO orders or orders for mirrored lenses.

you need assistance, you can email Tracy at tracy@wileyx.com.
Questions & Answers
Q: Can I get a bifocal prescription for my Wiley X sunglasses?
A: NO BI-FOCAL PRESCRIPTIONS ACCEPTED. SINGLE VISION ONLY.
Q: Which Wiley X models accept prescription lenses?
A: 50°, 100°, 480°, JP-1, JP-2, JP-3, P-17, P-23, P-38, P-44, Romer,
Romer II, SG-1, XL-1, XL-1 Flame & XL-3.
Q: What type of prescription lenses does Wiley X offer?
A: Transitional, Polarized, Mirrored and Non-Polarized.
Q: What material are Wiley X prescription lenses make out of?
A: The prescription lenses in your Wiley X are made of polycarbonate
material. Polycarbonate is the safest most impact resistant
prescription lens available.
It will be fabricated to exacting standards, and while not a Z87.1 safety
lens, it will meet and exceed the drop-ball testing standard
for such a lens. Dealers
in the state of New Jersey should especially take note of this.
Q: Will my Wiley X sunglasses still be interchangeable with prescription
lenses?
A: When prescription lenses are made for any of the glasses (except the SG-1),
they are no longer interchangeable. That means that they can only hold one
set of prescription lenses in each frame. Even though some of these styles
are interchangeable without prescription lenses, the lab has to glue the
lenses in when they prescript them. These glasses will not come with the
additional
lenses that would ordinarily come with the non-prescription package.
Q: Can Wiley X prescript non Wiley
X sunglasses
A: No. Nice try.
