Sunglasses make us look good, and they protect our eyes from UV radiation and irritating glare. Especially for corrective lens wearers with an active, urban lifestyle, ZEISS offers a wide array of fashionable prescription sun lenses. Now, in addition to existing sun lens colors like Black and greenish Pioneer, ZEISS is introducing four new Rx lens color options: Dusk Grey, Copper Brown, Burgundy, and Midnight Blue.

When it comes to glare protection, glasses wearers may prefer the comfort and convenience of self-tinting lenses over prescription sunglasses. ZEISS PhotoFusion X lenses are photochromic lenses, which means they automatically turn from clear to darker when exposed to sunlight. Now, these lenses are also obtaining a color update with the new self-tinting Burgundy. This is a great option to make a fashion statement and highlight one’s feminine traits. “ZEISS PhotoFusion X lenses come in a variety of attractive colors, but especially the new Burgundy color option is surprisingly elegant and has a distinct look – made to catch everyone's eye”, explains Andreas Nix, Product Category Manager for photochromic lenses at ZEISS Vision Care.

Consumers who want the ultimate in style can now add a touch of luxury to their prescription sun lenses. With the new ZEISS DuraVision Gold UV coating, both tinted and polarized lenses receive a sophisticated, golden residual reflectance. ZEISS DuraVision Gold UV lenses also feature integrated ZEISS CleanGuard technology with some impactful functional properties: lenses possess a superior scratch resistance and are easier as well as faster to clean than any other ZEISS coating ever developed.
