The first magnetic goggle in Bolle’s line-sup, the NEVADA NEO, encompasses all the technical features available on NEVADA with an extra asset: a magnetic lens locked whatever the action thanks to Bollé® EyeLatch. Unlike other magnetic goggles on the market, the EyeLatch makes sure the lens stays put no matter the intensity of the run.

Even though all ski goggles filter 100% of UV rays, not all of them transmit the same amount of light. Depending on the weather conditions, you will therefore not have the same needs. This is why the ski goggles are classified by solar categories. These 5 categories indicate the amount of light filtered.
- Category 0: transparent screens. They let through 80 to 100% of light and are intended for evening/night time.
- Category 1: clear screens allowing good visibility in cloudy weather. They transmit between 43 and 80% of luminosity and thus allow for increased contrasts and reliefs. Ideal for skiing in bad weather and in fog.
- Category 2: offers good protection against glare by allowing between 18 and 43% of brightness. These screens allow you to ski in cloudy weather or in the shade. They are also suitable for sunny weather if you are not too sensitive to light.
- Category 3: ideal for a day's skiing in good weather as it effectively protects against solar glare. These screens only transmit 8 to 18% of light for skiing in peace on sunny days.
- Category 4: is intended for high-altitude terrain such as glaciers. These screens only transmit 3 to 8% brightness to ensure extreme protection and are not intended for general skiing. This protection factor is rarely intended for ski goggles and must be reserved for glacier eyewear.
The screens of ski goggles benefit from numerous treatments to bring you maximum comfort and performance during your outings in the mountains.
- Polarizing treatment: it is applied to all category 3 ski goggles and to certain photochromic screens. It increases contrasts and reduces reflections. The polarizing treatment offers real visual comfort and excellent optical definition.
- Anti-fog treatment: applied inside the lens after manufacturing, it is essential to prevent fogging of your ski goggles. This treatment is now present on all ski goggles - the vast majority of them are, moreover, built with a double lens to limit the appearance of fogging. To ensure the proper hold of the anti-fog treatment, it is recommended not to clean the inside of the mask screen when it is wet to avoid damaging the anti-fog treatment.
- Mirror treatment: it's not just an aesthetic choice. The mirror effect protects your eyes from the glare of the sun caused by the reflection on the snow. The mirror treatment applied to a mask can display different shades. On category 1 masks, suitable for bad weather, the mirror treatment is often transparent. On category 2 and 3 ski goggles, you can play more with the colors depending on the style you are looking for.
- Anti-scratch treatment: it protects the screen of your ski goggles from scratches.
