Vista Series

The ultimate panoramic lens science.

The Vista X is Pilla and ZEISS’s highest-performance lens platform, delivering 180-degree optical precision with exclusive lens geometry. Its wraparound design eliminates peripheral light interference, ensuring unmatched clarity and accuracy. A proprietary coating enhances visual quality and reduces eye fatigue, offering athletes a superior, fatigue-free visual experience.

"Unbelievable product… definitely an enhanced product to anything I’ve ever used."

George Digweed, 28-Time World Champion

A Panoramic Visor Lens – The PANO VISOR

Vista X lenses, developed exclusively with ZEISS, offer athletes a panoramic, optically correct visual experience that enhances precision and clarity. This advanced lens technology minimizes light interference from the top, bottom, and sides, allowing the eye to remain focused and relaxed without distraction—an essential advantage for high-performance athletes. The wrap-around design helps the eye register visual information quickly and accurately, reducing fatigue and maximizing the effectiveness of Pilla’s proprietary Chromashift color filtration system.

Backed by over 14 years of collaboration with ZEISS, Vista X features in-substrate pigmentation using SPA (Spectral Pigment Acceleration) technology. This science precisely tunes color recognition by lifting specific wavelengths to enhance saturation, contrast, and definition in a way that standard coatings cannot. The result is a lens system that delivers consistent performance across varying light levels, backgrounds, and environments. Vista X represents the most complete lens filtration science available for competitive sport and precision vision.

LIVE– Light Interference Vacuum Effect

The ZEISS PILLA “LIVE” 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.

In competitive sports, vision plays a pivotal role, yet it remains one of the most underappreciated aspects of athletic performance. The VISTA X lens platform addresses this gap by delivering unmatched optical clarity and stability, ensuring athletes maintain visual acuity in fast-paced or shifting light conditions. The result is a visual edge that directly contributes to performance gains. Vista X redefines what it means to have performance eyewear—elevating vision from an afterthought to essential equipment for serious competitors.

EXPLORE THE TECHNICAL COMPONENTS

Interchangeable Frame

The frame is purposeful by design as a minimal element to allow the lens to be the hero. The frame is completely out of view and only there to add in the comfort of the athlete whilst they compete in high activity, as well as be complimentary to the ergonomic needs of an athlete. The frame is a co-injected high performance rubber composite and is completely interchangeable.

Frame Attachment

The frame slides onto a titanium tip, providing a secure fit and easily removed to migrate to other lens filters in the athlete’s kit.

Interchangeable lenses

This is a state-of-the-art, proprietary ZEISS PILLA COATING SCIENCE that provides a 99.5% reduction in all light dispersion on the lens surface both front and back, simulating a “Black Hole.” The lens surface “eats” light. This is the ultimate in a performance Anti-Reflective. There is no light reflection or light dispersion on the surface, creating a crystal-clear visual experience. This technology is architected for athletes actively doing sport in real time hence the platform of “LIVE”. In high-performance sports – optimal vision is a huge competitive advantage. VISTA X lens technology provides demonstrable gains in an athlete’s visual aptitude.

Nose piece

The nose piece of the VISTA X is taken from our industry-leading Outlaw Series. The comfort of this nose piece is unmatched. It is a one-piece saddle made of high performance silicone and provides a very comfortable wear while planting the glasses on the face, withstanding a high-activity athletic experience or firearm recoil.

Sweat bar

The Vista X has a very soft rubber sweat bar that helps provide venting and enhancing air flow on the back of the lens. We introduced this feature to help reduce steaming of the lens backside and with the combination of our “Ice” lens coating science the effectiveness is quite stout. The blue color also indicates the lenses have Pilla's proprietary "Live" coating.

Standard Shape

The lens geometry of these shapes is identical. Generally, the choice between these options comes down to style preference. The Standard shape lens is a wider glass, offering for athletes looking for a more generous fit… we classify this as medium to large sizing. Average head size, men weighing over 185 pounds and taller than 6 foot and hat size of 7 1/4.

Slim Shape

This lens profile is a slimmer shaped lens than the Standard and is a great fit for those that prefer a more narrow design. We classify this as small to medium and it is best for those with narrower face features, women, and men under 6 foot weighing under 185 pounds.
