LENSES
Otis precision polarised glass lens technology is at the forefront of premium polarisation in sunglasses. Otis precision polarised glass lenses offer superior colour enhancement, contrast and sharper vision compared to polycarbonate (plastic) lenses. They block scattered light wavelengths without losing the purity benefits of a high quality, distortion free, scratch resistant mineral glass lens.
Otis standard fixed tint mineral glass lenses are 2.0mm thick and thermally toughened. Their polarised lenses consist of two chemically toughened glass wafers laminated with a polarised film under heat and pressure - the result is a 2.1mm thick lens. Once the lenses are cut to fit the frames, the edges of the lenses are then sealed to stop any water/moisture getting between the layers which can cause delamination.
Otis Reflect is the latest in mirror lens technology, instead of absorbing the light these mirror lenses reflect it. Reflect lenses are made using a double hardened hydrophobic coating creating a scratch resistant and durable lens. They provide optimal clarity and are distortion free.
Mineral Glass - A hybrid glass half the weight & twice the strength of standard crown glass – making it the perfect lens material. Distortion Free Precision ground mineral glass provides distortion free vision and is the most stable lens material available.
Scratch Resistant - Glass is the most scratch resistant lens material in the world
Permanent Tinting - Mineral Glass provides the most permanent and stable tints of any lens – Otis lenses will not warp, peel or fade over time.
Chemical/Thermal Hardening - Two processed by which the natural toughness of glass is even further enhanced to increase durability.
Lens Tints:
Grey - Versatile, general purpose lens providing natural vision and true colours
Brown - A contrast enhancing lens that sharpens details by blocking glare and scattered blue light making it ideal for bright conditions
