Realistic UV Vision [0]
You can see near ultraviolet. Allows using UV lamps (note that, due to fluorescence, these are not particularly stealthy) and UV dyes; otherwise has few practical applications. On the minus side, effects of atmospheric haze are doubled, and you have a -1 to resist eye damage from sunlight, such as snowblindness. UV penetrates water poorly, and is generally useless more than a few inches underwater.

Don't be silly. Quite a few real world animals need and use UV vision otherwise they wouldn't have evolved it.
And having lenses opaque to UV just means that's the part that gets damaged by intense light.
