Arriving with a modern look and feel in crystal or black frames (above) with tinted lenses, the Adlens Interface range will be available online and in stores soon.
OXFORD, U.K.—Adlens, based here, is releasing Adlens Interface, a new type of adjustable eyewear that helps relieve the effects of digital eyestrain. Based on the same Alvarez lens technology in Adlens Adjustables, Adlens Interface combines continuously adjustable focus with a specially formulated HEV light-reducing tint, allowing the wearer to fine tune their vision for the distance of the screen while reducing digital eye strain.

The company said a user test showed over 50 percent immediately noticed the difference when using their computers, preferring Adlens Interface to eyeglasses with clear lenses, while 60 percent saw an improvement when using their smartphones and tablets.

Quickly learning how to customize the focusing power of each lens, they were able to adjust their vision to whichever screen they were looking at, without modifying their posture, and benefitting from the digital eye strain-reducing tint. Users commented on the “resting sensation” their eyes experienced, reporting that glare was reduced, screen contrast improved, text appeared much clearer and they were able to focus for longer without experiencing discomfort.
