Serengeti Sunglasses Lens Technology
Serengeti makes two types of lenses, glass and Polar PhD. Since Serengeti pioneered photochromic technology, it should come as no surprise that all of their lenses feature this technology, which ensures your eyes remain fatigue-free throughout the day regardless of the light conditions.
Glass Lenses – Serengeti glass lenses are the most optically advanced glass lenses on the market. One of the ways they achieve this superior status is through their proprietary hydrogen firing process, which utilizes various and precise temperatures to embed photochromic and Spectral Control technology into the lens. This process also enables us to create exclusive lens colour, providing the ultimate in colour contrast, along with a high-definition view.
Polar PhD Lenses – Their Polar PhD lens is buil upon the NXT platform and is exceedingly lightweight and retains all the technologies, exclusive hues and hi-definition benefits that are near-glass in quality. What's more, their Advanced Polarized Surface Technology had been engineered into the backside of the lens, to avoid the delamination and deterioration inherent with film.
PHOTOCHROMIC - Adjusts to changing light conditions.
Just like with touring, the ability to adapt to our new environment is a valuable asset to any and every driver. Their photochromic technology works by embedding molecules within the lens that are designed to constantly adjust to changing light conditions, so your eyes are free to stay focused on the road ahead.
SPECTRAL CONTROL - Provides control over light and colour.
By managing colours within the visible light spectrum, Spectral Control technology gives you stunning, high-definition contrast and colour enhancement. This essentially gives your eyes control over the light, resulting in crisper vision and amazing clear images, while blocking out distracting blue light for less eye fatigue.
POLARIZATION - Eliminates glare, enhances clarity.
It may be beautiful scenery, but if light is bouncing around and being reflected off myriad surfaces, you're not going to see it at its best. That's why their polarization technology is specifically engineered to eliminate distracting glare, giving the wearer unsurpassed clarity and comfort.
