ESS Crossblade STD Replacement Laser LPL-5 lens

The ESS Crossblade STD Replacement Laser LPL-5 lens is a precision optical component engineered to protect against green laser threats in tactical and law enforcement environments. This replacement lens for ESS Cross Series frames delivers certified laser protection with 2.5 Optical Density (OD) rating, blocking 99.7 percent of 532-nanometer wavelength emissions from laser pointers and targeting devices. The LPL-5 combines threat mitigation with operational versatility, maintaining 48 percent visible light transmission (VLT) to preserve situational awareness across varied lighting conditions without excessive dimming.

The lens integrates ballistic protection into its laser-blocking design, meeting the dual-protection standard expected in high-risk operations. The 48 percent VLT is calibrated to allow operators to maintain visual clarity during day and low-light operations while the 532nm blocking layer neutralizes green laser hazards at the optical surface. This balance between protection threshold and light transmission is critical for shooters and tactical personnel who cannot afford vision degradation during extended duty cycles. The lightweight construction (0.14 lbs) ensures minimal impact on eyewear weight and comfort during prolonged wear.

The Crossblade STD replacement lens fits all ESS Cross Series frames—including Crossbow, Crossblade, and Crosshair models—making it ideal for operators maintaining multiple frame configurations across different operational roles. Law enforcement units, military personnel, and range operators who work in environments with laser training systems or potential green laser threats benefit from this lens as a direct upgrade or replacement component. The standardized fit within the Cross Series ecosystem simplifies inventory management and ensures consistency across a tactical team's eyewear setup.
