Airwear provides a unique combination of benefits that make it the ideal choice for today's active lifestyles, and provides the wearer with superior comfort and performance. Airwear lenses are 43% lighter and 10 times more impact resistant than standard plastic lenses, so they have the lightness and strength you need in a lens while also providing the enhanced comfort and cosmetic appearance you desire.

Airwear lenses are made from polycarbonate plasticówhich is found everywhere from your car to your home to essential accessories such as eyeglasses that make our lives better. From DVDs and Apple iMacs to many aesthetic applications including eyeglass lenses, consumers want the technology of tomorrow, with the style of tomorrow, and polycarbonate does just that.

Airwear lenses are not only lighter in weight and thinner than traditional plastic lenses, they also offer scratch-resistance, ultraviolet protection and are very impact-resistant. In fact, weight/lightness was rated as the most important quality of a lens in a recent consumer survey†.

Crizal anti-reflective lenses set the industry standard in aesthetics and performance. Crizal lenses are specially designed using revolutionary methods that combine anti-glare properties with double-sided scratch resistance and an easy-to-clean finish. They resist dirt and smudges so you don't have to clean them as often. And while most lenses let only 88% of light pass through, Crizal lenses allow transmission of more than 99% of light, with less than 1% of light being reflected. This allows you to see more clearly while others see your eyes without seeing your lenses. Crizal lenses also dramatically reduce glare and halos from lights at night, improving vision while driving.

The latest generation of Crizal lenses, Crizal Alizé with Clear Guard™, provides even clearer vision. This new anti-static technology allows your lenses to stay cleaner longer and actually repels the dust, dirt and smudges that accumulate on your lenses. With no glare, smudges, dust, dirt, oil or grease, you can see as clearly as you did the first day you got your new glasses.

And now, with Crizal Sun™, the newest addition to the Crizal family offering, you can have the first integrated Anti-Reflective created specifically for Sunwear. New Crizal Sun optimizes vision through any sun lens by adding the scratch protection and ease of cleaning of Crizal® Alizé®, while virtually eliminating backside glare. The specialized, integrated technology of Crizal Sun delivers these benefits without front-side color changes or additional light transmission through the front of the lens.

DEFINITY™ progressive lenses are the only PAL that utilizes DUAL ADD® Technology, a patented, dual-surface, offset design which provides several distinct optical advantages: a wider intermediate zone, the least amount of peripheral distortion of any PAL and a unique zone of correction called GROUND VIEW ADVANTAGE™.

GROUND VIEW ADVANTAGE features a reduction in power which minimizes distortion and flattens the field of vision, giving wearers greater clarity when looking down.

Another significant benefit of DUAL ADD and GROUND VIEW ADVANTAGE is that these advantages become more pronounced as add power increases. As a result, DEFINITY remains the right solution for presbyopes as they age.

DEFINITY is the perfect lens for the active lifestyles of today's presbyopes. With the superior intermediate vision, DEFINITY makes computer use, driving or any other everyday activity more comfortable. With clearer vision when looking down, DEFINITY makes going up and down stairs, playing golf or tennis, or navigating uneven surfaces easier.
