Shamir Glacier PLUS UV

GIARRE.COM USES THE NEW ANTI-REFLECTION TREATMENT FOR ITS PRESCRIPTION LENSES: SHAMIR GLACIER PLUS™ UV

Glacier Plus UV is the optimal lens coating that won’t wear off or scratch. It leaves the lens clear and free of distracting reflections, and it’s easier than ever to keep clean. Now, Shamir has made it even better with its new improved version. Glacier Plus UV provides also the most comprehensive UV protection for the eyes, blocking both incoming and rear surface reflected rays.

The main benefits

  • The improved anti-glare reduces annoying glare.
  • Protects your eyes with backside UV protection.
  • Enhanced anti-static properties repel dust.
  • Anti-stain, hydro and oleophobic properties for the easiest cleanability.
  • Increased strength and durability.
  • Protection 25 times higher than the naked eye (without glasses) *

* E-SPF® is a global statistical index of measuring the UV protection of the lens. E-SPF® was developed by Essilor International and supported by about a third of industry experts. A lens with E-SPF® 25 allows greater protection of the eye, receiving a percentage of UV rays 25 times lower than the unprotected eye.

UV PROTECTION

Shamir Glacier Plus UV offers a new concept in UV protection. Even lenses that claim 100% UV blocking, do not protect the eyes from the UV reflection that reaches the eyes from the rear surface of the lens. The new Glacier Plus UV coating includes extra UV protection that prevents the harmful rays from being reflected into the eyes.
That’s comprehensive UV protection!

BETTER ANTI-REFLECTION TRATMENT

Greater visual comfort. Shamir Glacier PLUS™ UV diminishes cosmetic issues for patients; dramatically reducing glare with Shamir’s innovative Matte Finish as well as minimizing “Rainbows” with the Newton Ring Reduction Technology.
This allows an improvement in visual comfort without the annoying ring reflections, a more natural appearance and a better lens aesthetics. This method allows the best union between the material of the lens, the hardening layer and the antireflection treatment, ensuring better optical performance and treatment duration.

SUPER HYDROPHOBIC PROTECTION

Greater resistance to halos and water spots. Shamir Glacier PLUS™ UV’s unique Slippery Plus hydrophobic and oleophobic top layer ensures the easiest cleanability. We have it thanks to the perfect adherence of the anti-glare and hardening layers.

Hudrophobic Protection


IMPROVEMENT OF ANTISTATIC PROPERTIES

Anti-dust action. Integrated into the GLACIER PLUS UV filter is a layer with a strong antistatic component that keeps the lens clean from dust.

Antistatic Properties


DURATION

More strength and reliability. A dual protection process provides the lens with an extremely hard, scratch-resistant but at the same time flexible coating so as to make the lens more difficult to damage, protecting it from daily wear and providing greater durability.
