Costa 580 Lenses


Beyond Polarized- Costa 580 lenses were designed by in-house light spectrum experts to enhance colors because standard sunglasses fell short. The lenses' multipatented technology manages light by:

Absorbing harmful high-energy blue light (HEV)
• Cuts haze and blur for greater clarity
• In addition to 100% protection from UV light, 580 technology also absorbs HEV light known to cause macular degeneration, pterygium, cataracts and other eye diseases

Enhancing Reds, Greens and Blues
• Blocking harsh yellow light at 580 nm on the visible light spectrum boosts the amounts of reds, greens and blues naturally, enhancing color and contrast

Filtering Out Harsh Yellow
• For enhanced color, sharper contrast and higher definition
