In low light, the lenses are a green/yellow colour which provides high contrast, minimises glare and maximises useful light information reaching the eye. |

Behind the windscreen, on a sunny day, they change to a copper colour which reduces glare and excess visual light. It also gives good traffic light recognition, highlighting reds and greens. |

Finally, in sunny outdoor conditions they become a dark reddish brown, providing maximum comfort in bright conditions by filtering excess light. |
We can supply Drivewear lenses as standard single sight, HD1 single sight and varifocal HD2 formats.
Whilst these sunglasses are often promoted primarily for safer, more comfortable driving in low-sun conditions, they are also ideal for other applications such as cruise holidays and angling.
