Product Description
-------------------
Uvex Genesis XC Safety Glasses offer an economical, all-in-one
protective eyewear solution for workers who wear prescription
glasses. These glasses have all same comfort and adjustment
features as our best-selling Genesis product line, but include an
optional Rx lens insert that holds prescription lenses. This
effectively turns the Genesis XC model into prescription safety
glasses (and if tinted, prescription sunglasses). They can
accommodate a wide variety of Rx needs, including bifocals,
trifocals and progressive lenses. And the simple screw closure
can easily fit prescriptions ranging from +3.0 to -3.0 diopters.
The traditional Genesis wraparound design has also been extended
by approximately 20% to provide extra protection for prescription
lenses (now more than 180° of peripheral coverage). Built with
MMT (Multi-Material Technology), these safety glasses offer the
highest available impact safety: V0 ballistic test
protection against impact energies 7X higher than ANSI
requirements (on select tints). They are also certified to meet
CSA Z94.3 standards. Some Genesis XC models also feature an
advanced TPE frame formulation that performs exceptionally well
in environments where mist, cutting oils and high
moisture are present. The three-position lens inclination system
and adjustable temple length make for a truly customized fit. The
temples are also cushioned for a non-slip fit and all-day
comfort. Other unique comfort features include a soft elastomer
browguard to diffuse impacts, and soft, flexible nose fingers
that reduce slippage and conform to almost any nasal profile.
Genesis XC safety eyewear also boasts an easy and economical lens
replacement system to extend the life of your glasses. Uvex
Genesis XC Safety Glasses are available with multiple lens tints
to suit almost any work environment. Uvex stands for "Ultra
Violet Excluded", which means our safety glasses employ
specifically formulated resins that filter 99.9% of the UV
radiation in accordance to the U6 scale of the Z87 standard. Uvex
has also developed Spectrum Control Technology (SCT), which
incorporates unique dyes designed to absorb select wavelengths of
radiant energy (light). Our anti-glare glasses, tinted safety
glasses and safety sunglasses are designed to manipulate light to
reduce a spectral hazard, or to provide distinctive filtration
for specific safety eyewear viewing tasks. Examples include
filtering solar radiation to reduce glare, and blocking radiation
from welding to protect workers around these operations. Multiple
anti-fog and anti-scratch coatings are also available. The new
HydroShield technology provides our best anti-fog lens coating,
keeping your vision clear up to 90X longer than most other
competitive anti-fog safety glasses. The Uvextreme anti-fog
coating offers great, dual-action performance under demanding hot
and humid conditions for long lasting fog-free performance. Our
Ultra-Dura hardcoat makes for some of the toughest
scratch-resistant safety glasses in the world. Permanently bonded
to the lens, it offers unparalleled scratch and
resistance. The dual anti-fog/anti-scratch Dura-Streme coating
combines the benefits of our industry-leading Uvextreme anti-fog
coating and our Ultra-Dura anti-scratch hardcoat. While the
advanced anti-fog properties of Uvextreme help keep the interior
of the lens clear from fogging, the rugged properties of
Ultra-Dura protect the exterior of the lens from scuffs and
scratches, adding up to three times more life to lenses.
