PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Wiley-X's Climate Control series, like other sealed wraparounds, was developed for the biker and skier markets but is also very well adapted for use as "moisture chamber glasses" by chronic dry eye patients. The foam gaskets maintain an excellent seal, keeping in moisture and keeping out irritants.

• Removeable facial cavity seal
• Soft case
• Cleaning cloth
• Elastic strap and leash cord

REBECCA’S REVIEW

Overall assessment: Excellent value for the money. Panoptx still has the edge in comfort and fit of the eyecup, and perhaps frame styling, but Wiley has a distinct edge in visual experience for outdoors and is also a much more attractive pricepoint for indoors use ($135 vs. $199 for light-adjusting lenses in most styles). Wiley's foam-lined gasket in this newest series is of good quality, fits pretty snugly, seems to fit and wear well, and can easily be replaced when the foam wears out.

Personal experience: I love both Wiley-X and Panoptx and use both regularly. You might think of my Panoptx as the "luxury" model. They go on like a glove and just plain feel good on – and the protection as moisture chambers is awesome. But Wiley-X are my workhorses and I have found them indispensable for outdoor use and driving. I am very happy with the seals on these new models, but what originally hooked me on Wiley-X was the wider wraparound lens, which gives me better side vision than any other foam-lined glasses I've had. Wiley also makes an excellent bronze polarized lens that I'm fond of.

Who am I? My name is Rebecca Petris and I have had chronic dry eye since undergoing LASIK in July 2001. I founded The Dry Eye Company as a result of my experiences, hoping to make useful information and effective products more accessible to others with dry eye. Each product in this store has been personally tested and approved by me. For a list of my top favorites – the items I use on a daily basis myself – click here.
