| Lens Option: Polycarbonate Lenses |
| |
Most sports glasses offered by AthleticOptics.com contain polycarbonate lenses, which are the strongest lenses available on the market (the same material is used for aircraft windshields.) Polycarbonate is composed of long chains of atoms that can slide in correspondence to one another. This creates a material that can flex in response to impact, even to the point of being bent permanently without breaking. Polycarbonate lenses are also very lightweight, making them an excellent choice for many sports. Features / Benefits
- durable, virtually unbreakable material; safe to wear in active pursuits.
- 20 times more impact resistant than glass so no danger of shattered glass.
- 3 times lighter than glass.
- optically correct, clear, sharp vision, lenses which provide additional comfort for the active wearer.
- distortion free, extends wearing time and reduces eye strain and headaches.
- all polycarbonate lenses come with an anti-scratch coating and 100% UV protection that cannot be scratched off.
