Solar Shield Filters

Solar Shield® Contrast-Enhancing Absorptive Filters are specifically designed for the Low Vision patient.  These absorptive filters were developed in cooperation with Dioptics Medical Products, the manufacturer of the #1 doctor recommended sunglass.  Solar Shield® filters provide 40% more preotection from the sun than ordinary sunglasses because of the protective top and side shield design.

Five lens tints are available - gray, plum, yellow, amber, and orange.  Gray polarized and plum lenses decrease overall light transmission and reduce glare.  Yellow, orange, and amber lenses decrease blue light transmission and increase contrast. Three frame sizes are available - small, medium, and large.  Small frames will fit patients who wear smaller eyewear or no eyewear at all.  Medium and large sizes will comfortably fit over standard eyewear.

All Solar Shield® filters block 100% of UVA/UVB rays and have bend-to-fit temples for a custom, comfortable fit.
