OUR JOURNEY TO IMPROVE VISION HAS EVOLVED OVER THE PAST 50 YEARS

From BIFOCAL to PROGRESSIVE for clear vision at all distances.

From GLASS to PLASTIC to POLYCARBONATE materials for improved safety.

From THICK to ULTRA-THIN lenses for better aesthetics and increased comfort.

From CLEAR to PHOTOCHROMIC lenses for increased comfort in all light conditions.

From front-side only UV protection to additional backside UV protection for healthier vision. We Hope You Will JOIN US On Our Next Step to Provide Eye Protection Against UV and Harmful Blue Light For All Wearers EXPOSURE TO HARMFUL BLUE LIGHT INCREASES EVERY YEAR With improved health, we are living longer but as we age, our eyes weaken and become more at risk for developing eye diseases like cataract and age-related macular degeneration (AMD).1

UNDERSTANDING THE LIGHT SPECTRUM OUTDOORS Harmful Blue Light is 500X more intense than indoors The sun emits Harmful Blue Light all year long, and in all weather conditions

The sun is the largest singular source of Harmful Blue Light

The sun scatters light through the atmosphere and is up to 500x more intense than the Harmful Blue Light we are exposed to indoors INDOORS Harmful Blue Light is everywhere Blue Light is emitted by many indoor sources of light such as LED lamps and compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs)

Harmful Blue Light is also present in modern digital devices like computer screens, tablets, and many smart phones.

As the U.S. moves toward more energy-efficient light sources (LEDs), Blue Light surrounds us even more

INDOOR HARMFUL BLUE LIGHT HARMFUL BLUE LIGHT has been linked to retinal disorders such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD)*, which is a leading cause of vision loss in adults over the age of 50.**
