Precision optics designed specifically for aviators. Our top-of-the-line lenses feature notch filtering technology for contrast, clarity, and performance that is second to none. Each lens option utilizes special thin-film coating technologies to dial in specific amounts of visible light (VLT) suited to pilot preferences and light levels for typical routes.

Lens Technology

SKY lenses are Method Seven’s original top-of-the-line pilot lenses, crafted from German glass with powerful notch filtering. SKY technology combines eleven rare earth elements including neodymium, molecularly bonded within a crystalline lens. Thirteen proprietary coatings block harmful UV and infrared heat while providing unmatched color and clarity. If you’re looking for the absolute best in performance.

Lens Spectrum

The SKY18 (Medium) lens has a similar VLT to most other avionic sunglasses. However, the clarity of crystalline glass, combined with the comfort of a lens that absorbs extreme UVA light and infrared heat energy make it the best in the world. With medium tint and a VLT of 18%, it's an excellent choice for mixed conditions.

Frame Technology

Ascent's titanium alloy frame is a blend of updated aviator styling and some of the most advanced frame construction available. Light, strong and flexible titanium alloy temple pieces taper off to less than 1.0 mm thick, seamlessly conforming to your head and headset for any duration flight. Designed specifically for headsets, and tested for fit with flight helmets. Rubberized nose pads add comfort on long days in the seat.
