These reflections can be a source of discomfort and impact your everyday life by making us adopt new behaviours, consciously and subconsciously. We adjust our heads, changing our posture or even remove our spectacle lenses just reduce the visual impacts of reflections. Crizal Sapphire HR reduces reflections regardless of where the light comes from. By reducing the amount of reflections your vision will be purer with more vivid images and improved lens aesthetics when others look at you. Transparency has never been so visible.(4)

Thanks to this unique UV protection enhancement Crizal Sapphire HR has an E-SPF rating of 35, the highest E-SPF index on clear lenses for optimal UV protection.(6)
