DRIVEWEARŪ Lenses
The ULTIMATE Driving Lens, combining the benefits of NuPolar a polarised lens with TransitionsŪ technology that even activates behind the car windscreen:
- In the car (dull weather) - Light amber polarised enhances contrast and sharpness
- In the car (sunny weather) - The TransitionsŪ layer activates, turning the lens a medium brown sunglass tint, increasing glare protection
- Outdoors (sunny weather) - The lens changes to a deep brown tint, giving maximum glare protection.
