A stinging branch in your face on your way through thick shrub during a hunt, a reed in your eye on a duckhunt, a tiny fragment from a clay pigeon on the shooting range, or a ricocheting pellet during the hunt. These are scenarios that active hunters know all too well and they happen daily all around the world. It does not take much to get injured. Wearing shooting eyewear ought to be as obvious as wearing hearing protection.

Claus Lind Christensen Formand/President Danmarks Jægerforbund Danish Hunters’ Association 6

Danish Hunters’ Association recommends the use of ballistic approved shooting eyewear on every hunt.


When it comes to hunting and shooting no amount of protection is too much. As an ISO 9001:2008 business we meet a higher standard than competitors’ “marketing claims.” Per required specifications and as outlined by ISO 9001:2008 and ANSI Z87.1 standards we continue to meet the highest Ballistic Impact Standards. Wiley X products are put through rigorous testing in order to be EN.166 Certified and full ANSI Z87.1 rated. Wiley X is the only premium performance manufacturer of hunting and shooting eyewear whose entire line is ANSI and EN.166 rated.

IMPACT STANDARDS

IMPACT STANDARDS

THE SECRET BEHIND You, as a hunter, rely on many different factors when hunting. Factors like the weather, weapon type, choice of ammunition, distance, hide, camouflage and gundogs – just to mention a few. But most importantly – you rely on each other and your ability as a hunter to act and react in matters of seconds - being in control of the situation and deciding if it is safe to pull the trigger.

As safety is the most important factor of them all, it is important to choose the best eyewear on the market. When you are in a hunting or shooting situation where you can expect; ricocheting pellets, sharp pieces of clay pigeons, flicking branches in the woods or pointy reeds – you can ALWAYS rely on the fact that all eyewear in this catalog meet or exceed the hardest tests in the World. To illustrate this point – the picture above shows a Saber Advanced lens which has been shot from 10 meters distance only – using a using a 12ga shotgun with Modified Choke and shooting with steel shot size #7. As the picture shows – the lens was hit by multiple pellets, no cracks or penetration on the back side of the lens, leaving the eyes intact and protected.

I am an official tracking dog handler and I have on average 75 searches per year. The game we seek is both wounded game from a hunt or from traffic collisions. In the fall of 2014 I was on a routine search for a wounded red deer. Everything went according to plan and the dog had contact with the wounded deer. I ran after the red deer through the woods when I suddenly and without warning got a branch in my left eye. The next day I could not see anything with my left eye. After a visit to the doctor’s and to the hospital it was concluded that I had damaged my iris. I barely avoided an eye operation and after the ophthalmologist’s statement it was pure luck that I didn’t have further complications. I have learned my lesson - I never go hunting or search for wounded game without my Wiley X Eyewear.

As a prescription wearer I look very much forward to be able to benefit from the expertise of Wiley X and I’m confident Wiley X will be able to provide me with prescription eyewear that will give me an extra edge when competing. I enjoy hunting and I often find peace and strength being out in nature. Being a young hunter I will try to influence all hunters as well as all clay shooters to wear eye protection. Unfortunately, I have witnessed more than once, how close you can get to losing your eyesight when you are not wearing the right eye protection. By teaming up with Wiley X I have found the perfect partner – for both my professional career as well as when I’m hunting.

WILEY X PRESCRIPTION INSERT

WILEY X PRESCRIPTION INSERT Why choose a hunting/shooting eyewear model with prescription (RX) insert instead of having the prescription in the outer lens? If you need prescription lens – choosing a Wiley X model with an insert you will have a lot of advantages, compared with prescription eyewear, where the prescription is built directly into the lens.

• • • • •

Easy and cheaper to replace an outer lens which has no prescription. Up to 5 different front color lens options – allowing you to adjust to any given light condition. Everyone can use the eyewear without the insert. Still certified as safety eyewear. Inserts match different models (see below).

I have worn prescription glasses since I was 12 years of age. Being a professional hunter, (member of P.H.A.S.A.) and also a professional Pike Fishing Guide (member of Reaction Strike Pro Team) I need perfect vision as it’s one of my most important senses. Without perfect vision I could not determine the distance of a stalked deer or see the fish moving in the water. For this I must use my instinct together with my sight and experience. Having to wear prescription glasses 24/7 I need the best. Having used Wiley X for the past few years I have determined that they offer the best protection on the market together with optimized vision - protecting my eyes from sun rise to sun set.

CROSS EYE DOMINATION

HOW TO CURE CROSS EYE DOMINATION When shouldering the gun to your right shoulder and aiming with your left eye being your master eye, this is cross eye domination. It is the same story if you shoulder the gun to your left shoulder and aim using your right eye as your master eye. When doing so the line of the gun and the line of the sight are not in line (see the illustration), and as you are not looking straight down the barrel you will often miss your target. This problem has often been solved either by closing the dominant eye, using a piece of cardboard covering the dominant eye, or even using a pair of glasses blinding the dominant eye with tape or a marker. These solutions have serious disadvantages: You will not be able to evaluate distances with only one eye No eye protection Not 100% field of view

• • •

Cross eye domination can in most cases be “cured” by using Wiley X protective eyewear. Wiley X Ballistic, ANSI Z87.1-2010 and EN.166 rated lenses provide a true spatial relationship of objects in the field of view. By mounting a smoke grey colored lens in front of the dominant eye and a light rust colored lens (contrast enhancement color) in front of the other eye, the domination will in most cases change to the other eye and thereby solve the cross eye problem. This provides the following advantages: No cross eye domination problem 100% eye protection 100% distance evaluation 100% field of view RX ready (prescription)

• • • • •

The human brain can’t adopt the two different colors and therefore the two colors (smoke grey and light rust) will become one. White line indicating line of gun. Orange line indicating line of sight. As the two lines are not parallel the shooter will NOT hit what his is aiming at.

My son has a cross eye dominance problem and when shooting he would normally have to shoot with one eye closed. By changing the lens in the shooting glasses to one black, one orange, it has shifted the master eye to the good side, looking down the barrel and he is now able to shoot with both eyes open allowing him to get better results. Wearing the adapted glasses, I set up a clay pigeon trap with the clay coming towards us. I thought that if I put skeet choke in, it would give him a bit of confidence. Once I had him shooting the clay, time after time, I screwed in a full choke and it didn’t seem to make any difference, he was still hitting every time. I then turned the trap round with the clay going away from us, it meant the target was 10 cm wide and 2,5 cm thick. Still shooting full choke. We stood beside the trap and stepped back 5 meters every 5 shots. We ended up 35 meters away from the trap, before he missed one. I must say, it was fantastic to see the smile on his face, when he was hitting every clay, when shooting with both eyes open.

Now any client that comes to me for a shooting lesson with a cross eye dominance issue, I am using this technique with the glasses and getting great results.

For me safety is everything - by teaming up with Wiley X I feel 100% comfortable knowing that my eyes will be well protected in the competitions I attend now as well as in the future. For many of the older shooters the safety aspect has never been something they considered. Some of them have paid the price for this and I don’t want to be another number in this statistics.

PRESCRIPTION READY

PRESCRIPTION READY Wiley X offers state-of-the-art prescription lens solutions to all hunters/shooters, who have corrective eyewear needs. The prescription lens program is designed and manufactured using the Shamir Direct Lens Technology™. This ground-breaking Freeform® technology is the most advanced digital surface grinding of individual constructed rear optics, which gives the lenses a wider and clearer field of vision compared with the common stock lens on the market. The prescription lenses are offered in both single and progressive lenses. To reduce glare and reflections and to extend the lifetime of the prescription lenses, Wiley X utilizes the superior Shamir Glacier Plus® coating system.

SUPERIOR LENS COATING OPTIONS • • • •

Improved anti-reflection (Enhances comfort and style) Enhanced antistatic (Repels dust and stays clean) Super hydrophobic (Improved water and stain resistance) Extreme scratch-resistant coating (22% better than nearest competitor in NSL analysis)

ADVANCED LENS TECHNOLOGY Almost all Wiley X High-Wrap frames are optimized and designed to hold the “state-of-the-art” RX lens design. Peripheral distortions and power errors in the line of sight are non existent!

RX LENSES BY:

SHAMIR

BATTLE PROVEN LENS MATERIALS All prescription lenses are made from polycarbonate materials to maintain the same high ballistic level of protection as standard lenses. All RX lenses also offer 100% UV A+B+C protection.

POLARIZED UHD VISION

FOR YOUR EYES ONLY

Polarized and photochromic lens options are available within the Wiley X prescription solutions. Polarized lenses are the ideal lens choice for the active enthusiasts. The photochromic polarized lens option is a technology where the lens changes from a light polarized color like yellow, and changes into a dark orange/amber color when exposed to UV light.

The RX lens system is tailor made to meet the user’s eye data. To bring this to life we use the EyePoint Technology system that simulates the human eye in every angle, prescription, and field of vision. This technology makes it possible for Wiley X to provide our clients with the best vision possible and the most advanced RX lens system in the world.
