RAMSEY, Minn.—To improve consumers’ choice of light-responsive lenses, Vision-Ease is expanding its line of photochromics with the addition of LifeRx FSV Vivid AR. The polycarbonate lenses are coated with Vision-Ease’s proprietary Vivid AR, which the company said offers “unparalleled clarity and cleanability.”

LifeRx lenses are recognized for their lightweight comfort and superior photochromic performance. LifeRx FSV AR lenses offer these qualities with the additional benefit of diminishing glare and reflections thanks to Vivid AR. The superhydrophobic coating reduces distortion by allowing liquid to run off without streaking, and is highly scratch-resistant, anti-static and oleophobic to repel the daily grime that dirties lenses.

The lenses provide 100 percent UVA and UVB protection, and are offered in gray and brown colors. LifeRx FSV Vivid AR stock lenses are available in 65 mm and 70 mm diameter for +2.00 to +6.00 spheres up to -2.00 cylinder.

Vision-Ease products are sold through independent opticians, optometrists and ophthalmologists, as well as many retail chains and dispensing markets across the country.
