not sure on the exact UV protection rating- They are up at our cabin 4 hours away so I can check on them, but they are a dark smoke tint and protect great against the sun- Since I had lasik eye surgery my eyes are very sensitive to the sun and they work great0 the best is how they keep the dust out without fogging- I actually bought 5 pairs just to have for everyone that rides with us!!

Yes these are the ones with the dark smoked tint. The googles are great. I am not certain what the uv rating is but I remember there was a sticker on them when I received them that indicated the UV. I remember that it was an acceptable or higher. I use these googles on bright sunny days. They keep the dust and debris out and also is a wonderful shield from the sun. I can ride directly into the sun and not be affected when wearing these googles.

Here is the response from LensDirect.com: Yes they do provide 100% UVA and UVB protection.

yes they work great. I use them when I ride my motorcycle and they are tinted along with uv protection which makes everything clear and my eyes don't hurt even after being on the highway in the sun all day. Are they safe around a bright welding light no they don't take the place of welding shield but they work for daylight.

No, they are not advertised as such as I recall. They seem to be fine and shade the sun , no problem. Works for me.

Ooops. Not see through, if they were see through I doubt that there would be any UV protection..

I purchased the dark tinted skylight and strongly assume it does block some uv light. I have not tested it to be certain.

I don't know the rating but I have been using them in a semi covered fixture outside for close to a year with no problems.

Nicholas, these look like having a Black Light in your case, and they do change and highlight some of the components colors in your build. I am not sure if they are real UV lights, but it does make it look really cool, and it is not to bright! The only problem I had was that I ended up having to use some glue to keep the Velcro tabs stuck to the case metal, but it was not a big deal. It would make a good low cost addition to your case looks.

Well generally sunglasses says on the glass that it has UV protection in this case it does not say anything about it, the I lost the manual where I could find something. However the sunglasses are excellent, comfortable and my wife is very happy

Hi Sandra, I'm not sure about any UV issues regarding the usage of these lights. There are numerous studies on the benefits of the red lights and blue lights. I would suggest asking the seller. Good luck.

I've worn these at burning man. They block dust well and look pretty cool. They are also very dark, which is helpful for the intense sun during the day. However, I am not sure if they are uv rated (I think maybe not) so I often wear uv rated sunglasses instead. Can someone please confirm the uv rating of these?

They are LED not UV! UV light takes longer to cure. Like 3 mins compared to 30 seconds. Great product love mine!

I don't know exact numbers on the UV protection but they definitely keep the sun out so I'm sure the UV protection is pretty strong.

The ones I received were not smoked. The photo shows a tinted (smoked) exterior lens and the interior trim as matte black. The photo is incorrect. The exterior trim is black but, the interior (inside the lens) is chrome and the lens is clear. I installed these on a 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix and regardless, they look great. The LED lights are very bright and work great. Hole alignment was a minor problem in that I had to widen some of the hole slots on my car. Even with these issues, I still recommend them.

I was concerned about this too. I got a pair. One thing though, they are significantly better than stock, but the one shines a slightly different pattern than the other and the lenses are somewhat easily scratched( my grill came loose and rubbed on it for about a mile and the and plastic was enough to leave deep scars). So if you can, get the Hellas.
