Precision Filtration, Engineered for Performance

Every athlete needs something unique from their eyewear to compete at the highest level. What do you need? Do you need lenses that do not fog during play? Do you need to enhance the registration of the ball to stand out against a busy background? Do you need to cut glare from outdoor courts so you can track the ball earlier? Do you need sharper contrast to read spin and speed in fast-paced rallies?


PILLA ZEISS lens filtrations are engineered with ZEISS to deliver precise color management, giving pickleball players a visual edge. Whether you want enhanced definition to track the ball in flight, high contrast to separate the ball from the court, neutralizers to reduce visual noise, or advanced Chromashift technology to make colors pop with unmatched clarity, there is a perfect Pilla ZEISS lens for your game.


Customized lens science, built for athletes—so you see faster, react quicker, and perform at your best.

LENS FILTRATIONS

With PILLA ZEISS lens technology, every filter is engineered for intention. The result is custom-built vision science designed to keep you a step ahead in every rally.

Outdoor Courts in Bright Sunlight

Indoor Venues with Artificial Lighting

Shadows and Mixed Light Conditions

Hard Court Reflections

Early Morning or Evening Play

Outdoor Courts in Bright Sunlight

TRANSMITTANCE LEVELS: 9.5% to 38%

Low transmittance lens filters (filters that restrict light from entering the eye)that have enhanced color pigments with high-contrast designs reduce harsh glare, making the ball easier to track even when the sun is overhead.The use of specialized coatings provides a high performance benefit in reducing light dispersion on the lens surface which makes the imaging fuzzy. Pilla Zeiss lenses remove this distraction to the eye making the imaging crystal clear and reduce unnecessary eye fatigue.

Indoor Venues with Artificial Lighting

TRANSMITTANCE LEVELS: 62% to 98%

High-performance lens coatings reduce the effect of fluorescence allowing the eye to see with crystal clear registration indoors. Chromashift color enhancing technology sharpens indoor imaging while creating visual lift in flat or inconsistent light, helping the eye track the ball with no drag.

Shadows and Mixed Light Conditions

TRANSMITTANCE LEVELS: 9.5% to 92%

Adaptive filters with specific transmittance values(the amount of light reaching your eye)balance brightness and clarity, so you don’t lose sight of the ball as you move across shaded or sunlit areas.

Hard Court Reflections

TRANSMITTANCE LEVELS: 9.5% to 62%

Specialized high performance anti-reflectives cut distracting reflections off painted or polished surfaces, keeping your focus locked on the ball.

TRANSMITTANCE LEVELS: 62% to 98%

High-transmittance lens filters (filters allowing more light to enter the eye) enhance ball visibility in low-light conditions, helping you react to spin and speed more quickly.

THE ICE IR LENS COATING SCIENCE

TheZEISS ICE technology delivers lenses that benefit from cutting edge engineering of coating science. A multi-layer coating application that improves a significant number of technical must haves in producing the best lenses available for the athlete. The total package of our ICE “IR” coating platform is a significant improvement in lens performance from previous generations.

HYDROPHOBIC AND HYDROPHILIC TECHNOLOGY

The lenses benefit from principals that deploy the best of Hydrophobics and a proprietary Hydrophilic technology on the backside of the lens while harnessing a color enhancing top coat with “IR”. The ICE technology delivers a performance benefit to the lens surface making it very slippery- hence the name “ICE”. Such a solution does not allow water to properly adhere to the lens surface or oils. This slippery performance reduces fogging on the backside while also making the lens extremely easy to clean repelling oils and water. The composite of these technical coating solutions accelerates color lifting performance, reduces fogging, while making the lens very easy to clean.

COLOR ENHANCING

ZEISS Pilla ICE with “IR” coatings also feature color enhancing spectral pigment accelerators which amplify very targets wavelengths in the color spectrum making the color pop. The exclusive and proprietary spectral enhancements in each formulation are tuned to a specific wave length for each lens design environment and background. A turbo charging effect of our “IR” based platform making color extremely vivid and allows for a level of specificity in color precision. We can pinpoint color lift with enhanced contrast.

"LIVE" COATING TECHNOLOGY

PILLA ZEISS “LIVE” – Light Interference Vacuum Effect – Coating Science is a groundbreaking technology engineered for athletes who compete in real-time, high-performance environments. This proprietary coating dramatically reduces light dispersion, by 99.5%, on both the front and back surfaces of the lens. The effect is comparable to that of a black hole, absorbing ambient light and eliminating distracting reflections. This allows the athlete to experience a clearer, more focused visual field without interference.
