EnChroma has launched its Lx Series of ophthalmic lenses for low vision and age-related eye conditions.
The company said that the range is designed to address the rapidly growing category of visual challenges worldwide.
Vice-president of business development at EnChroma, Mark Mattison-Shupnick, explained: “EnChroma’s new offering for low vision features a unique spectral filter that reduces the intensity of white light while transmitting colours up to two times brighter than an average lens.”
The Lx Series reduces the effects of glare, improves contrast and enhances colour vision in multiple lighting conditions.
EnChroma’s trial kit includes four lenses: a Category 1 lens for low-light and night-time use; Category 2 and 3 for combined glare reduction and colour vision enhancement; and Category 4, which is an dark lens option for extreme glare management.
