The lineup of high-end affordable sunglasses from Island Optics just got a whole lot more impressive with the introduction of their new proprietary OX2 G Mineral Glass Lenses for 2025. These lenses have been in the works for two years, and they are now ready for anglers and outdoor sports enthusiasts who want the highest quality sunglasses without having to spend $300.
While already offering anglers incredibly well priced options for polycarbonate lenses with stylish, functional frames at prices as low as $89, the new OX2 G Mineral Glass lenses will give anglers the full depth of options they have been demanding at better prices than they are used to finding for sunglasses of this quality.
Sourcing glass for the last two years led to the design of these top tier quality lenses while staying at an affordable price point for your everyday angler and outdoor sports participants. Island Optics has already been touted as a leader in specialty optics, and the high-end crowd has been begging them to make glass lenses.
The wait is finally over and anglers can get a pair of high-end glass sunglasses with proprietary lens technologies for as low as $198. This puts them in a class by themselves with most high-end sunglass makers charging $289-$350 for comparable sunglasses.
With Island Optics, you pay for glass sunglasses at the cost other companies charge for polycarbonate versions.
The proprietary OX2 G Mineral Glass lenses start with the highest quality glass. Then a range of base colors are offered to cover you from bright sun to low light conditions. From there, multiple layers of protective and enhancing oleophobic, hydrophobic, and sealing coatings are expertly applied to each lens to produce the maximum clarity while simultaneously improving color vividness and accuracy. The lenses are then laser sealed to prevent them from delaminating in the harshest of conditions. The results provide stunning clarity with vivid color and contrast to give anglers the best view above and below the water in a durable, quality frame.
Polycarbonate lenses are great for handling wear and tear and protecting your eyes from being struck by foreign objects. They offer a lighter overall weight as well. Glass lenses however, provide a clearer medium than polycarbonate. While the Island Optics polycarbonate lenses are the clearest lenses they can be, glass still offers a slightly higher visual acuity. So to answer the demand for a glass option, Island Optics has now delivered.
And they believe the new OX2 G Mineral Glass Polarized Lenses will be the most superior optics and color definition in the industry.
The OX2 G Mineral Glass Lenses are available NOW at IslandOptics.com and soon to be more dealers and retailers that will carry Island Optics sunglasses.
