Bolle Shield Active Varifocal Super Sports Lenses - Photochromic

This Bolle Branded prescription lens package will include a credit card certificate for authenticity. It will be fitted into your chosen eyewear and quality control checked by Eyekit prior to dispatch to ensure the quality and accuracy of your prescription. It comprises the following as summarised in the title:

Bolle - These are high definition (HD) lenses which use the latest free-form technology incorporating Bolle’s B-thin/VARIODrive Technology where applicable (not compatible with prisms or applied to low prescriptions). They use a digital design process that gives lens designers the ability to reduce lens aberrations even more than they can using conventional lens design and processing techniques. Lighter and thinner than standard lenses they provide exceptional night/low light vision reducing glare and halo effects from car headlights. They also offer exceptional contrast perception sharpening vision and improved colour rendition providing brighter and more intense colours. This is particularly important for varifocals and highly curved lenses as it ensures they provide the best vision across the whole curvature of the lens avoiding optical distortions that can occur in the periphery area of vision. These prescription lenses are customised to compensate for lens curvature. This means that you will have clearer vision throughout your field of view compared to other lenses.

Shield - These prescriptions are designed for the Bolle ranges that have a single visor across the frame as opposed to two separate lenses. Two prescription lenses will be incorporated directly into the shield which will avoid the need for clip in prescription lenses required for most other frames of this type.

Active Varifocals - These lenses are designed for dynamic sports and active lifestyles. They provide a larger un-interrupted distance viewing area with a smaller intermediate zone designed specifically for sport such as seeing detail in-front of a bike or the ground in-front while running and also a near vision optimised for viewing sports instruments such as a bike speedometer, maps or your watch while running. Don’t worry, they will also allow you to read the menu comfortably when stopping for a coffer break!

• Distance Vision - Wide and distortion free far vision zone with moderate increase of power below the fitting point, providing clear and stable vision above and below the horizon. Ideal for dynamic sports in which rapid and sharp movements would otherwise cause distorted vision and affect performance. Range - To infinity
• Intermediate Vision - Corridor designed to ensure optimal vision of the Safety Zone from 1 to 5m area in front of the athlete, critical for sports which must be monitored continually  in order to plan then next move and identify obstacles along the way. Range 2-5m
• Near Vision - Dynamic location of near vision zone for a clear and comfortable view of a watch, GPS and other sports gadgets. Range 30-50cm
• Peripheral Vision - Expanded peripheral vision, specifically designed for large frames.

Sports Lenses - These prescription lenses are made from polycarbonate. They are very strong, lightweight and thin. Most branded safety glasses, sports sunglasses and goggles are made from this material.

Photochromic - In this lens package you can choose a number of branded Bolle photochromic options and filter categories. Also known as 'Transition' or 'Reaction' lens filters, photochromic lenses are a state-of-the-art, high contrast, light reactive lens that changes lens tint density with the changing light conditions providing comfortable vision whatever the light intensity. Some options include a flash mirror coatings. Select your choice of Bolle prescription lens options from the prescription page menu as follows:

Options:

• Mirror - Some options above include a flash mirror coating which is good for situations that require a reduction in the overall brilliance of light, such as sunlight on snow or roads.
