The designer, former rocker June Takahashi, a promoter of free street fashion, produces glasses in a rectangular frame made of blue translucent plastic . The lenses are matched in the same color, but 1-2 tones darker. Products are more suitable for young people and informals, their range is limited.

Corporations specializing in vision correction optics produce both frames and photochromic and polarization lenses, which not only perfectly match each other, but also perform several functions simultaneously:

• eye protection from bright light;
• increased visual acuity;
• prevention of cataracts and retinal thinning.

By the way! Hoya DriveWear Hi-Vision Aqua 1.5 - a real find for drivers. The degree of their dimming can change in seconds up to 50% in the car and up to 85% on the street. Diopters from -9 to +7 are available.

For a long stay in the sun, near the water or in the mountains, it is better to give preference to polarizing, and for driving - photochromic lenses (chameleons) with anti-glare effect.
