Revo

The Italian based REVO sunglasses company uses a process developed by a NASA scientist in the production of their quality sunglasses. Originally working to protect the optics on defense satellites from harsh solar radiation by layering multiple coatings of special light filtering substances on the lenses, he tried the coating process on his own sunglasses, thus "revo"lutionizing sunglass performance.

Revo sunglasses use genuine German crystal lenses for high quality clarity and then overlays multiple coatings to reduce infrared and ultraviolet wavelengths while allowing the visible light waves to pass through. Revo sunglasses can be purchased either polarized or unpolarized depending on your preference. All Revo sunglasses come with special back coating to reduce glare. However it should be noted that while Revo used to make prescription sunglasses they have recently discontinued this product line.

Genuine Revo sunglasses can be distinguished by their trademarked "H2O" symbol in the upper corners of the lens. Some knock-off imitations will try to fool you with fake sunglasses that post the name "Revo" in the corner. Almost all Revo sunglasses have metal frames and glass lenses and a study of genuine Revo sunglasses will familiarize you with certain aspects of the bridgework construction that is unique to their brand.

While retail prices on Revo sunglasses tend to start at $100 a pair and upward, there are many places online to purchase wholesale and discount priced Revo sunglasses. An example would be ocshades.com where a pair of Premium Mirrored Revo Aviator Sunglasses will cost you about $15.00 rather than the suggested retail of over $100.00. A three pack wholesale price is only $35.00 on the classic Revo aviator sunglasses.

However, if you do go with the retail solution, you can improve the overall life of your Revo sunglass investment by installing replacement parts to them if they are damaged. There are quality sunglasses parts suppliers that can be found by a quick online search. New replacement lenses and frame parts are a simple do it yourself fix. Revo sunglasses are built with a sturdy enough construction that even purchased used they are a great eyewear investment. A pair that has been discarded because of a scratched or broken lens can be renewed with a genuine replacement part.

So whether you are seeking a classic design for your Revo sunglasses or a sleek modern oval wrap around style, you will be mixing comfort and quality with your selection of Revo sunglasses.
