The new SmartLens photochromic eyewear from AOSafety has an
automatic lens changer that adjusts according to the outdoor light conditions,
reducing the need to purchase multiple pairs of protective eyewear, says the
product’s maker Aearo Technologies. The lens lightens or darkens as needed and
within seconds, and is “UV reactive”, which means it responds to the amount of
ultraviolet light it receives, the company adds. SmartLens also features durable
frame with nylon brow and magnesium alloy temples, tough polycarbonate lens
that absorbs 99.9 per cent of UV, abrasion resistant hard-coat for extended
life, and meets ANSI Z87.1-2003 High Impact Standards and ANSI Z80.3’s traffic
signal recognition requirements, the company says.
