Essilor Canada Launches New Crizal® Sapphire 360° UV

Available July 4, 2018, the new Crizal® Sapphire™ 360° UV coating provides nearly invisible lenses with the best in class transparency for optimal comfort of vision. Thanks to its 360° Multi-Angular Technology™, reflections are reduced on lenses from light sources coming from any direction, all around the wearer.

Until now, anti-reflective coatings only took into consideration light sources in the frontal angle, between -15° and +15°. After 4 years of research, Essilor R&D has developed the 360° Multi-angular Technology that is able to capture and control the light coming from all directions: front, side and back, providing the optimal level of performance for a new generation of anti-reflective coatings lead by Crizal Sapphire 360° UV with E-SPF 35 index. Thanks to the 360° approach, the coating architecture on both sides of the lens is optimized, taking into account the interaction of both surfaces, and is reinforced with the introduction of a new nanolayer. This nanolayer guarantees the best in class transparency for nearly invisible lenses with UV protection.

Crizal Sapphire 360° UV lenses offers eyeglass wearers better transparency and better transmission of visual information, by reducing disturbing reflections from all direction. It provides them with optimal comfort and allows them to see and be seen in the best possible light.

Available on all Essilor Rx lenses, in all materials.
