Really good question! According to Tyr they don't, period.After this, will check other brands - Speedo, etc.

My sense is that there is some degree of UV protection and that's why I purchased one, as it was recommended by my dermatologist. Most cotton fabric has a minimum SPF of 15 for example.

They do have a protective coating on them of some sort. I have mine under a covered patio, but I do think they would hold up to moisture and rain.

I am not totally sure of that answer, I just figured it was like clothes, if its covering up you aren't getting the full impact of the UV light, just like when you are out in the sun, your clothes protect your body. I think its better than not using them at all.

Not really, I wouldn't think they would be seeing as they don't emit any UV.

not sure on the exact UV protection rating- They are up at our cabin 4 hours away so I can check on them, but they are a dark smoke tint and protect great against the sun- Since I had lasik eye surgery my eyes are very sensitive to the sun and they work great0 the best is how they keep the dust out without fogging- I actually bought 5 pairs just to have for everyone that rides with us!!

The particular ones I purchased, anti reflective clear lens, do not. They are for safety only in a work type setting. However, glancing at some of the other colors such as blue mirror or smoke it appears that those do offer UV protection.

I did a lot of research before buying these and I was told they do not. The package says nothing about UV protection. I am 99% positive that they are only to protect the eyes from flying darts.

This one specifically doesn't, but in it's label says: "for daytime sun exposure, use Avalon Organics Vitamin C Renewal Moisture Plus SPF 15"... maybe Amazon sells that one too :)

yes they work great. I use them when I ride my motorcycle and they are tinted along with uv protection which makes everything clear and my eyes don't hurt even after being on the highway in the sun all day. Are they safe around a bright welding light no they don't take the place of welding shield but they work for daylight.

I believe they block 100% of uv rays. I have been wearing this particular style for 20 years.

Yes it has UV protection! It blocks out more sun than it looks like it would! I absolutely love this cover!!Don't know the weight but it's not really heavy! We covered our percula with it! Love it!

Yes. There is some UV protector on them. They will still yellow eventually though.

Yes they do. I have them on a roof deck, covered by an indoor outdoor carpet. Even the carpet gets hot in the sun, though.

I were them here in Louisiana today in fact and it was a sunny day. I believe they do offer protection. There is no UV rating other than a comment somewhere about being standard polarized lenses.

No it does not. No sunscreen and it does state a warning that it does not protect against sunburn. also for external use only.

Unsure. I bought them specifically to protect my eyes from UV lamps operating in the 254nm range.
