7eye Airshield Cape dry eye glasses
A great frame size for medium to large faces, the Cape dry eye glasses from Panoptx are one of the most popular models and fit most people well.
The lens and frames become slightly smaller from the nose edges towards the outer eye corners where the sides join the frame front. Tapering to the sides, this style slightly features cat eye but without the upsweep. Cat eye glasses suit most people but are particularly good for round faces as their angularity sharpens and flattens softer face shapes.
This makes it one of the most popular models in the 7eye Airshield range, it fits most men and women, giving excellent protection from the elements.
Featuring extendable sides that can be adjusted with warmth and curved downwards, the 7eye Airshield Cape is ideal for medium to large faces. The eyecups are normal thickness so are slightly less visible.
One of the better models in the Airshield range for peripheral vision and for fitting prescription lenses into. If you are unsure which model to choose, we recommend this as a good all-rounder.
The close-fitting frame features the comfortable Airshield eyecup that helps block out wind, dust and pollen and also relieves the discomfort of chronic dry eye.
High quality 7eye SharpView lenses offer excellent vision and 100% UVA+UVB sun protection (even the clear ones). For more information on all the different non-prescription lens types we offer read our lens guide and if you need prescription lenses there is more information here.
It has a removable Airshield eyecup that will need to be replaced from time to time. The length of time that an Airshield lasts varies depending on the regularity and type of use.
Comes with a zip case and microfibre bag (can be used as a lens cloth).

I suffer from hayfever and have been using these glasses now for a few weeks and they gave been a great help.
The foam eyecup sits a lot closer to my face than standard glasses and this is working well.
I can feel a slight draft around the eyes which I think has stopped them fogging up. At the end of an hour ride my eye have not been watering anywhere near as much, even in the recent very hot weather when the pollen count has also rocketed.
Overall very happy.

I ordered these glasses in the hope of tackling the problem of my eyes constantly watering in cold and windy weather - I’m a year- round links golfer so it’s an almost year-round problem. They arrived promptly, very well presented in a soft-shell case, and I’m delighted with them. They can be adjusted in a few ways to ensure a snug fit. My golf still stinks but I can no longer blame my tear-filled eyes!!!

Really comfortable pair, wasn’t expecting a miracle but they worked surprisingly well, definitely better than expected, I didn’t notice at first but by the end of the day I’d used way less drops than normal and they’d kept my eyes in a much more comfortable state.

Bought these trying to solve the helmet fogging issues i had.
While tested the pinlock solution before buying these glasses, noticed that the reflexions on the visor are too distracting when driving at night.
These glasses offered me the perfect solution. They do not fog inside my helmet and the lenses are awesome.
The only concern is the lost of peripheral vision but for this the helmet already had the same problem. For me at least this is not an issue at all.
I would recommend them and i will buy again for sure!
