Wide-rimmed Clear sunglasses
Wide-rimmed Clear glasses cover almost the most area of your cheeks, even covering almost half of your cheeks.
Conservatoire Light gray clear frame sunglasses
Conservatoire International De Lunettes, founded in 2013 in Italy, specializes in fashion and retro glasses and sunglasses. Starting from the classic glasses of the past, new research results, photography, film, and retro elements are integrated into the design of glasses. These shapes may have been used by a classic character, or they may have been historical design elements, modernizing them to create a sense of fashion.
The Benefits of Anti-Reflective Coating
After knowing some basic information about anti-reflective coating, you need to know the benefits of anti-reflective glasses.
Anti-reflective glasses enable more light to pass through your lenses to optimize visual acuity with fewer distractions and the lenses look nearly invisible, which enhances your appearance by drawing more attention to your eyes and helping you make better eye contact with others.
In addition, the anti-reflective coating is especially beneficial when used on high-index lenses, which reflect more light than regular lenses. That is to say, the higher the index of refraction of the lens material, the more light that will be reflected from the surface of the lenses.
What’s more, the modern anti-reflective coatings can reduce the reflection of light from eyeglasses, allowing 99.5% of available light to pass through the lenses and enter the eye for good vision.
Because the anti-reflective coating can eliminate the reflections, it can also make your eyeglass lenses look nearly invisible so that people can see your eyes and facial expressions more clearly. Hence, anti-reflective glasses are more attractive and you can look your best in all lighting conditions.
Anti-reflective glasses have sharper vision with less glare when driving at night and greater comfort during prolonged computer use. So, you can find that anti-reflective glasses come with many benefits.
Disadvantages of polarized sunglasses
Polarized sunglasses have many benefits. However, in some cases, non-polarized lenses are a safer choice. On cloudy days, drivers find that non-polarized sunglasses are better than polarized sunglasses due to the lack of glare and extreme sunlight.
Driving with polarized lenses after snowing can be dangerous for drivers. As the glare of polarized sunglasses is blocked, ice or snow on the road will not be visible. In this case, the advantages of polarized sunglasses will become the disadvantages that may cause accidents.
In addition, when driving along a dark road with few street lights at night, wearing polarized lenses will make it harder to see the road conditions because they dim the available light better than non-polarized glasses. Of course, in low-light conditions, it is best to avoid wearing sunglasses completely while driving.
The most significant disadvantage of polarized sunglasses is that they do not perform well on digital screens and displays. They can cause the images and information on the LCD screen to blur or disappear at certain angles. Don’t wear polarized sunglasses to use these devices while driving.
What is the best lens material?
Trivex is a special material from PPG. Compared with PC lenses, the refractive index is lower (only 1.53) but the Abbe number is higher (up to 45), which results in smaller dispersion and better image quality. At the same time, the impact resistance of the Trivex lens is 10 times higher than that of the PC. It is the only explosion-proof safety lens that can withstand external force twists and turns in the market at present.
The main parts of glasses
1. Spectacle lenses
One of the most important accessories for glasses is spectacle lenses. Due to the increase in myopia patients, the demand for spectacle lenses is also very large, but the prices of spectacles on the market are also uneven. To know whether the spectacle lens is good or not, you can't just look at the price of the product, but learn more about the value of the lens itself. For example, the resin lens is lighter and suitable for patients who wear it for a long time. The quality of the optical glass lens is better, and it is not easy to break, suitable for some elderly people.
The quality of spectacle lenses is also a key consideration. The market generally classifies lenses based on their structure, materials, and usefulness. The information on spectacle lenses is mostly chemical substances. It is very beneficial for us to select some good-quality lens materials. It is not only necessary to consider the function of the lens, but also to consider whether the lens material is harmful to the human body. Generally, the crystal stone materials are very safe and reliable, and we can choose carefully.
2. Spectacle frame
Another important figure in eyeglasses accessories is the frame. For those who like lightweight glasses, it is more appropriate to choose ultra-light frames or half frames. However, the frame must have durable and play a good role in maintaining the lens, otherwise, it will lose the meaning of the frame. Of course, the temples are also a part of the frame. There are also nose pads for glasses accessories. Many people have more requirements for nose pads. Generally, they choose soft ones that are not easy to press on the bridge of the nose.
Polarized vs non-polarized sunglasses
-
Non-polarized sunglasses generally only have the two basic functions of shielding strong light and filtering ultraviolet rays, and their efficiency in filtering ultraviolet rays is low. In our daily life, in addition to strong light and ultraviolet light, when light passes through uneven roads, water surfaces, and other places, irregular diffuse reflection light will be generated, which will cause blurred vision and fatigue in the eyes.
-
Polarized sunglasses can filter out this kind of light, only absorb the reflected light of the object itself, truly present what you see, make the field of vision clearer, and reduce visual fatigue. In addition, polarized sunglasses have a 99% blocking rate of ultraviolet rays due to their high-efficiency filter layer, which can effectively reduce the damage of ultraviolet rays to the eyes.
-
When judging whether the sunglasses are polarized lenses, you can rotate the sunglasses up to 45° clockwise. If the color of the lens changes at this time, and the color of the sunglasses returns to normal after turning the sunglasses back to the original position, then it can be judged that the sunglasses are polarized. And if you can’t see the change in the color of the sunglasses lens no matter how you turn it, then you can judge that the sunglasses are not polarized.
What are NXT Lenses?
NXT lenses are made of Trivex materials. Trivex (Chinese name: Ethyl Carbamate Polymer) was invented by PPG in 2001.
Impact resistance:
Impact resistance is the main feature of the NXT lens. As a visual armor material originally used in the military field, Trivex has effective impact protection to the eye when it is most demanded. It is 10 times stronger than PC lenses in impact resistance and will last for life under normal use. It is the only explosion-proof safety lens on the market that can withstand external forces and turns.
Patented color injection technology :
Color representation is another important feature of NXT lenses. The biggest defect of the regular lens in dyeing is color aberration. The same color of the lens with different luminosity will produce different effects. The higher the refractive index, the serious the error. NXT lenses are a breakthrough in this respect. The patented color injection technology that infuses the color into the raw material gives the lens a natural color, ensuring that color aberrations are minimized and that they do not fade or change color over time or over long periods of use like other materials.
Abbe number and internal stress:
The Abbe number of NXT lenses made of Trivex is 43~45, which is close to CR39(58) and higher than PC lenses (29~32) and high folding lenses (32~41). At the same time, because the NXT lens is produced by the casting process, there is no stress in the finished lens, which further reduces the rainbow phenomenon, providing a guarantee for the clear visual effect and reducing eye fatigue.
Weight:
The specific gravity of NXT lens is 1.11g/cm3, 16% lighter than CR39 (1.32g/cm3) and 10% lighter than PC tablet (1.22g/cm3). The Trivex 1.53NXT medium-fold lens is so light that it can float.
