Terminology:
- VLT - Visible Light Transmission. This is a percentage based on the amount of light that will come through to your eyes. Generally, a higher percent VLT makes it easier to see through the lens in low-light conditions. A lower VLT percentage will be more useful during very bright conditions, and when dealing with harsh reflective glare from the sun. VLT % may vary between spherical and cylindrical lens shapes.
- S4 / Extreme Sun: 3-7% VLT
- S3 / Full Sun: 8-18% VLT
- S2 / Mixed Clouds: 19-42% VLT
- S1 Overcast & Storm: 43-79% VLT
- S0 / Night & Race: 80-99% VLT
