You only get one set of eyes, so you ought to cover them with products that you can trust. Revision Military is 100% US-owned and operated and creates products that are ballistically rated, laser-proof, or both. Located in Essex Junction, Vermont, the team specializes in eye shields, goggles, sunglasses, and a full array of products to protect your vision. New for 2023 is the Revision Slingshot Ballistic Sunglasses system.

Revision Slingshot Ballistic Sunglasses

The number one reason shooters forgo wearing Eye Pro is fogging, as anything that obstructs your view is a non-starter. The Slingshot is built with a browless design to allow heat and condensation to vent away from your face, as opposed to collecting under the frame. Available in two configurations, the most common is the I-Vis two-lens kit, as it includes the Umbra and Verso lenses for both ends of the lighting spectrum. These lenses feature the Ocumax anti-fog coating and exceed military impact resistance requirements. Swapping lenses is as simple as manipulating the nosepiece, with the entire process taking less than 30 seconds.

The Slingshot joins legacy eyewear such as the Speed Demon, which is built with an adjustable aluminum frame and the same lens-swap capabilities. Six options are available, with each bearing the Ocumax coating and tuned ballistic performance. On the lighter side, we have the Sawfly, which offers the shooting public a chance to try Revision’s technology in an affordable, conventional configuration. For less than $65, buyers can choose the frame and lens combo of their choice and put ballistically-rated polymer between their eyes to prevent potential harm.

As the name implies, Revision Military holds a few contracts with the armed forces, with their goggles being the chief focus. The MerlinHawk, SnowHawk, and Desert Locust seamlessly navigate around helmets and facial features while offering the best-in-class field of view. Each features interchangeable lenses and effortlessly integrates with peripheral gear to accommodate the climates for which they are created. 

Revision Military makes painstaking efforts to ensure there is an eye protection solution for everybody, including those who wear prescription lenses. Their website provides a PDF and instructions on how to have your script built into their products, eliminating the need to wear two sets of eye protection or fumble with contact lenses.
