Polycarbonate Lenses
What Are Polycarbonate Lenses?
Polycarbonate is a lightweight material that has a high impact resistance. Polycarbonate lenses are 10 times more impact resistant than traditional plastic or glass lenses. Polycarbonate is lightweight and ensures that Polarised Polycarbonate lenses are the perfect choice for an active lifestyle. Mako’s Polarised Polycarbonate provides the great sun protection while playing sport, running, driving or fishing and any other outdoor sports.

Polycarbonate material is manufactured using an enormous amount of pressure to compress the raw material. The resulting product holds up very well under impact because it is flexible and gives slightly under pressure without breaking. Because less of the polycarbonate lens material is needed to provide the same amount of visual correction that a traditional plastic lens offers, polycarbonate lenses are thinner and lighter in weight.
 
AR Coating and Oleophobic Coating on Polycarbonate Polarised Lenses
Polycarbonate polarised lenses are now available with AR Coating. This coating is applied to the back of the lens to combat reflected glare. AR coatings improve the transmission of light through the lenses, improving the clarity of vision. Applied on top of the AR coating is an Oleophobic coating. This extra coating gives the AR coating extra protection and also makes the lenses more repellent to grease, finger prints and dust and makes them easier to clean.
