What Are Polycarbonate Lenses?

Polycarbonate lenses are made from a durable, shatter-resistant material that is much lighter and stronger than traditional plastic lenses. 

They are a top choice for active individuals, children, and those needing extra durability.

Why Choose Polycarbonate Lenses?

✅ Impact-Resistant & Shatterproof: Ideal for sports, active lifestyles, and kids.
✅ Lightweight & Comfortable: Even lighter than CR-39 plastic lenses.
✅ Built-In UV Protection: Blocks 100% of harmful UVA & UVB rays.
✅ Thinner Than Standard Plastic: A better choice for stronger prescriptions without the bulk.

Who Should Get Polycarbonate Lenses?

🔹 Active Individuals & Athletes: Perfect for sports and outdoor activities due to their durability.
🔹 Kids & Teenagers: Virtually unbreakable lenses provide extra safety for young wearers.
🔹 People with Strong Prescriptions: Thinner than regular plastic lenses for a more comfortable fit.
🔹 Anyone Needing Built-In UV Protection: No extra coatings are needed to shield your eyes from harmful rays.

Things to Keep in Mind

❌ Slightly Less Optical Clarity: Polycarbonate lenses may have slight distortions compared to CR-39 or glass lenses.
❌ More Prone to Scratches: While impact-resistant, they can scratch easily without an anti-scratch coating.
