Poly Lenses - UV400 Protection and Scratch Resistant Coating
Polycarbonate Lenses are the most durable of all lenses and the safest, lightest and thinnest available. These lenses have the highest impact resistance and least likely to fracture of all lenses therefore, making them great for kids, playing sports and safety glasses. Polycarbonate is an excellent choice for rimless eyeglasses.
