ZEISS AdaptiveSun: Smart sunglasses lenses for customers that prefer a convenient, fashionable lifestyle.

Sunglasses provide UV protection, glare reduction and comfortable vision. But even when wearing them, customers often struggle to see clearly because of constantly changing light conditions. The lenses can either be too dark in shady areas or too light in bright sunlight. We then tend to take them off, leaving our eyes unprotected.

ZEISS AdaptiveSun Solutions are sun lenses designed to automatically adjust their colour intensity depending on UV exposure while maintaining

  • full UV  protection  and
  • glare protection  at all times.
