Eyewear designed for pilots typically focuses on comfort with headsets at best or being fashionable aviator sunglasses at worst. The primary reason pilots should wear specialty eyewear isn't to enhance their style but to improve their vision. Since their inception in the 1930s, aviators have largely remained stagnant, with non-polarized, UV protective lenses being the standard. At Method Seven, we’ve gone beyond the basics, engineering lenses that enhance color, clarity, and contrast in the cockpit. We’re also one of the only optics brands to filter infrared (IR) in addition to shielding eyes from UV.
Aero Crew News recently featured an in-depth look at how our eyewear is redefining vision for pilots. Here’s a preview from their article:
“Flying presents a unique set of visual challenges—blinding glare, fluctuating light conditions, and the constant strain of scanning instruments. Method Seven sunglasses tackle these problems head-on with lenses engineered specifically for pilots. Unlike off-the-shelf sunglasses, they preserve true color, reduce eye fatigue, and optimize contrast, giving aviators an edge where it matters most.”
Aviation demands precision, and so does your vision. Whether you’re flying directly into the harsh light of a setting sun or transitioning between bright outside conditions and a low-light cockpit, Method Seven aviation sunglasses provide performance and protection you can depend on to make safe decisions on the fly. The key to this: Method Seven notch filtering. It's unlike the lens technology offered by any traditional aviator. Our lenses don’t just reduce glare; they fine-tune your visual experience to ensure that critical details stand out and distractions don’t.
