Choosing the Right Lens with NINES® NIRTECH® Sunglasses

When we choose polarized sunglasses, we often see many different colors of the lenses. The color is not just for its sunglasses to look cool; they are designed to fit in different situations. While a bright summer light can be very different from a cloudy afternoon drive. That’s why NINE® NIRTECH® was developed with multiple lens options to handle specific conditions while giving you 100% UV protection and blocking harmful infrared. Choosing the right lens can significantly give you a vision advantage, and also boost your view, which gives you better coloring and contrast.

Why Lens Choice Matters

So why does the lens color matter? Simply put, your eyes will see and filter different colors while wearing sunglasses. So polarized sunglasses help deflect sunlight directly, but also alter your actual vision to see the light. Thus, a colored lens can help to ease the color diffusion.

With the right lens, it helps polarized sunglasses wearers enhance clarity with reduce glare. Your eyes will feel less irritated and feel comfortable seeing objects with strong light reflections.

NINE® NIRTECH® lenses develop not only with our patented coating process, but also with high contrast that allows your eyes to see even better in all visible RGB colors. The 100% UV blocking and harmful infrared rays also help wearers ease stress and reduce irritation.
