Ambient light or the light we see consists of light waves that vibrate in a number of different directions. However, these light waves are often reflected off flat or shiny surfaces. These reflective surfaces concentrate the light causing the vibrations of these light waves to travel in the same direction as opposed to being scattered in a random fashion. These intense uni-directional waves are known as “polarised” light waves. Polarised light waves are many times brighter than non-polarised light and are otherwise known as “glare”. |

This neutral grey polarised glass lens offers the highest glare reduction available. It is chemically toughened, durable and has a high scratch resistance. Recommended for all light conditions especially bright direct sunlight. |

This brown polarised glass lens increases contrast, is chemically toughened, durable, and has high scratch resistance. Recommended for hazy overcast conditions and freshwater fishing. |

This photochromatic copper or brown polarised glass lens will provide you with premium visual comfort indoors and outdoors. This lens changes shade to adjust to the level of light. When outdoors the exposure to the sun causes a chemical reaction that darkens the lens to adjust to the level of UV exposure. When indoors the absence of UV rays causes this reaction to reverse. It is particularly suitable for driving and fishing. |
|
Impact resistance and lightweight polycarbonate polarised lenses make this lens the perfect choice for an active lifestyle. This lens system is designed for performance and durability and is virtually shatter proof. |
|
This polarised photochromatic lens made from NXT® material is not only super light weight but offers extreme durability, and has the added benefits of the photochromatic lens which changes shade to adjust to varying outdoor light conditions. NXT® is impact resistant and has a lifetime guarantee. |

Decentred Glass and Polycarbonate Polarised 8 Base Lenses |
Decentred Glass and Polycarbonate Polarised 8 Base Lenses
All Mako 8 base polarised lenses are decentred.
Decentred lenses move the optical centre of the lens inwards towards the bridge of the frame to prevent prismatic distortion. The 8 base decentred lenses allows Mako sunglasses to use extremely curved frames while still providing distortion free vision.
Since the 6 base polarised lenses are not used in curved frames there is no need for them to be decentred. |
