ZEISS Sport Lenses

Lifestyle and sports frames often require something extra.

Wrapped frames require special prescription lenses. These frames protect patients from lateral glare, UV light and wind. This confronts the eye care professional with a special challenge:

  • The extreme tilt of these frames changes the perceived perspective.
  • Using traditional lenses cause aberrations and distortions that impair vision.

The optimum solution

ZEISS Sport Lenses provide optimum optical correction for all wrapped frames, ensuring that aberrations are a thing of the past.

Technology for ZEISS wrapped lenses, complete with DuraVision® Sun UV, turns the challenge of extreme conditions into a fun activity.
