7eye AirDam Sunglasses
7eye AirDam Protective Sunglasses FAQ
What is 7eye and what makes it different from regular sunglasses?
7eye is a small American company that makes vented sunglasses. Air channels around the lens keep them from fogging, and most models take a removable foam eyecup that shuts out wind and dust. We sell more of them to motorcyclists and to people with dry eyes than to anyone else.
How does the 7eye Airshield / AirDam gasket system work?
A soft silicone-foam gasket sits between the frame and your face. It stops wind reaching the eye, so tears don't evaporate as fast, and it keeps dust and pollen out. AirDam is the standard version with a cup you can pull off. AirShield seals deeper and fits more like a goggle; that's the one to pick if dry eye is the reason you're here.
Can I get prescription lenses in 7eye frames?
Nearly all of them, single vision, bifocal or progressive. We cut them in Trivex or polycarbonate and use a digitally surfaced design so the wrap doesn't distort the edges. A couple of the fit-over models are non-prescription only; the product page says so.
What lens material do 7eye AirDam frames require?
Polycarbonate or Trivex. The eyecup mechanism is designed around light lenses, and high-index is dense enough to wear it out early. We default to Trivex unless you ask otherwise.
