Our high-performance sports eyewear is designed, developed and precision-crafted in Linz, Austria. This enables us to ensure the strictest standards of quality.

To ensure perfect vision and functionality, clean the lenses regularly with clean water and a soft cloth. We recommend using the cleaning cloth that comes with your eyewear, or a similar micro-fiber eyewear cleaning cloth. You can also use a mild soap, liquid soap or standard commercial eyewear cleaners. Never rub the lenses dry, but lightly dab them with a soft cloth or leave them to air dry instead.

evil eye sports eyewear offers anti-glare protection and 100% protection against UV rays (UVA/UVB/UVC, up to UV 400). They also protect your eyes from snow, rain and wind. All evil eye sport lenses are made from durable polycarbonate, making them extremely break-resistant.

They do not provide suitable protection against heavy impacts, hard objects, looking directly into the sun, lamps with high radiant energy or sunbeds.

Polarized
The POL filter gives you extra protection against bright sunlight and strong reflections. Our polarized lenses ensure relaxed vision, preventing rapid eye fatigue.

Please remember that wearing polarized eyewear may limit your ability to see images on liquid crystal displays such as smartphones, laptops and dashboard displays, etc.

LST®
LST^®lenses enhance contrasts, equalise rapid light-shadow changes and ensure clear vision. LST® reduces light intensity to a comfortable level and helps you perceive different colours more clearly.

LST® VARiO
This combination of lens tints offers all the benefits of LST^® and VARiO in one package: enhanced brightness and contrast, equalised vision during rapid alternations between light and shadow and a photochromic lens that adjusts automatically to changing conditions.

VARiO
The photochromic VARiO lenses adjust seamlessly and automatically to changing light conditions.

We only offer predefined color and lens variants per model. Please check on evileye.com whether the model of your choice is fitted with a VARiO lens or offers a VARiO lens as a spare part.

evil eye eyewear prides itself in the fact the performance range models come in different sizes. We recommend you best try the eyewear on in the shop as our models also come with angle adjusting hinges and nose pads making the eyewear customisable to your personal needs.

We additionally recommend using our Virtual Try-On feature on the website in order to first virtually try on the eyewear and the various sizes available in that model.

All evil eye sport eyewear can be fitted with prescription lenses. We offer 3 solutions: Direct glazing; adapter glazing and the Clip-in solution. Please go to https://www.evileye.com/en/prescription to learn more.

We recommend that you discuss this with your nearest evil eye optical retailer as your prescription will determine which is the best option for you.

All evil eye lenses can be produced to incorporate your prescription. Lens colour remains original to the specific lens.

As each individual has varying and very specific prescription values, we recommend you discuss this with your nearest evil eye optical retailer who can advise on what solution is best for you.

All our eyewear is made in Austria and can be fitted with tailor-made prescription lenses, which are also made in Linz. Our parent company, Silhouette International, employs around 1,600 people worldwide and operates two production facilities (one in Linz and one in the Czech Republic), along with sales offices in 13 countries.

Our parent company, Silhouette International, has always been guided by a strong sense of corporate responsibility. We are committed to striking a healthy balance between people, the planet and our company’s success. We believe that we can actively shape the future for the better. And that is an opportunity that we do not want to miss.

You've seen some sports glasses you like. Now you can try them on virtually on our website. It's a great way to get to know our extensive product range and to find out which of our various models suit you the best.

To do a Virtual Try-On, take a video of your face using the camera on your device (desktop PC, laptop, tablet or smartphone). Make sure that you follow the instructions on how to move your face. You'll also be asked to hold a standard-sized credit card in front of your face (this is an optional step that you can skip) — please use the reverse side of the card so the camera doesn't capture your personal information. Putting the credit card in the frame ensures that the eyewear are displayed in the right size. Now you're all set to try on models from our wide range of sport glasses that are available to try with our Virtual Try-On tool.

The Virtual Try-On tool will ask your permission to use your camera. Once you have granted permission, the tool will use the camera on your device.

You can find the Virtual Try-On tool on the evil eye website . In addition, all products that can be tried on virtually can be identified by an icon. You can also access the tool via the product page of any item with Virtual Try-On capability.

Yes, the Virtual Try-On tool allows you to download the video footage as an image.

You can view the video recording in your user account for 1 year after it has been taken. However, this depends on the availability of your user account (which varies depending on your country) or whether you have accepted browser session cookies with a duration of 90 days. This happens automatically as soon as you re-start the Virtual Try-On process. The process works with session cookies provided that the cookies stored via your browser have not been deleted in the meantime. You can delete the video at any time. Our software provider ditto Technologies Inc. stores data on their servers for 2 years. You can ask our software provider to delete your data at any time by revoking your consent.

The credit card is used to help scale the eyewear so that they are displayed on the face in the right size.

Please ensure that you take the video in a bright, well-lit place. You will also achieve better results in the video if your hair is pulled back and your ears are visible. Look directly into the camera on your device and follow the instructions guiding you through the Virtual Try-On process.

The sport glasses and colours are displayed in a realistic way. There may be minor differences due to the way different screens are set up.

There is an icon that shows which products have a Virtual Try-On option.

If you have any problems when using the Virtual Try-On, please get in touch with us via our contact form.
