A step beyond high-performance sports lenses.
Approximately 90% of high-performance sports sunglasses use polycarbonate-category lens material, already a mainstream standard for performance eyewear. Hexachroma takes the next step with a lower-dispersion, lighter lens material and advanced polarized technology that supports easier screen viewing outdoors.
Three reasons to upgrade.
Less colour fringing. Clearer detail.
Lens material Abbe value
- Hexachroma
- 52
- Mainstream polycarbonate
- 30
A higher Abbe value means lower material dispersion, helping reduce colour fringing around the edges of objects. This measures material dispersion, not overall clarity.
Polarized glare reduction. Easier screen viewing.
Reduce the screen-blackout issues associated with conventional polarized lenses, making it easier to check your phone or sports watch outdoors.
Screen visibility varies by device and viewing angle.
Lighter lenses. Less weight to wear.
Hexachroma uses a lighter lens material, reducing the weight you wear during longer outdoor activities. The lighter Hexachroma lenses also help improve the overall buoyancy of non-prescription FlexFoam™ sunglasses; prescription versions are not floating configurations.
