Are the EvilEye road bike goggles a miracle pair of glasses? TOUR tested the glasses. How does the e-sense perform?

It actually works! Until now, self-tinting sunglasses with photochromatic lenses always adapted to new light conditions with a slight time delay. With the e-sense from EvilEye, this is a thing of the past. The LST-eVario filter, which is controlled via an LCD module above the nose, adapts to the brightness of the surroundings in a flash. Tunnel entrances and exits are now a thing of the past.

The glasses can even be used in the car because the tinting is not controlled by the UV radiation, which is filtered through the windscreen. The manufacturer also offers the option of adjusting the prescription of the glasses using a clip.



The downer: definitely the price. Whether 649 euros is reasonable for a pair of sports glasses is ultimately determined by your own bank balance.
