Inspired by our popular line of Low Vision Cocoons fitovers, the SideKick UV Filter packs an unparalleled level of protection into the convenience of a flip-up. However, unlike traditional flip-up designs that only filter light approaching from directly ahead, the SideKick features a wrap-around lens design that filters out light that can enter your field of vision from above and the peripheral. Engineered to withstand harsh treatment during daily use, each polycarbonate filter is optically correct, scratch-resistant, lightweight, and extremely durable.

In both indoor and outdoor settings, the Hazelnut filter reduces glare and provides heightened contrast. It transmits 18% of visible light and provides 100% UVA/UVB protection. It also blocks 98% of blue light and all visible light up to 410 nm. The Extra Large SideKick features generous proportions and offers maximum coverage, fitting almost any size of prescription eyewear.

“The hazelnut lens was a life saver. My eye doctor told me about these for helping with light sensitivity. Very durable. Just now getting my second pair. I’ve had a few pairs of glasses and these have fit over all of them.” (5 / 5) Kathleen H., Jackson, MS
