Costa 580® Lenses

Beyond Polarized

Costa 580 polarized lenses were designed by in-house light spectrum experts to enhance colors because standard sunglass lenses fell short. The lens’ 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 red, greens and blues naturally, enhancing colors and contrast

Filtering Out Harsh Yellow

For enhanced color, sharper contrast and higher definition

LENS COLORS

Choosing a Lens Color

Light conditions are constantly changing. To get the most out of Costa Lenses, it’s important to choose the right color. We offer seven lens colors that range from low-light like dawn to extremely bright light with blinding glare.

For offshore, blue mirror is the way to go. For freshwater and inshore, green mirror and copper are great options. For low light at dawn or dusk, sunrise silver mirror is perfect. Gray lenses are the best choice for everyday activities. Of course, the best way for you to decide is to consider your environment.
