admin EnChroma declared the EnChroma Lx Lens Technology, a new lens series and eyewear designed for low vision and people 50+ with glare sensitivity, to solve a speedily rising issue of visual challenges worldwide. EnChroma Lx Technology is specially developed to support functional vision by reducing the disabling effects of glare, while improving contrast and enhancing color vision over multiple lighting conditions, according to a company news release.
“Until now, there has not been a viable, comprehensive solution on the market for the huge, fast-growing population of people who suffer from low vision and age-related vision impairments,” Tony Dykes, EnChroma Co-founder and CEO, informed in a company news release. “EnChroma Lx Lens Technology features a unique spectral filter that reduces the intensity of white light while transmitting colors up to two times brighter than an average lens. People who wear the glasses will discover that the superior glare reduction, comfort, and enhanced color and contrast will improve their mobility and safety, and enhance their lives.”
The problems people experience as they age, and those with low vision, include:
Increased glare sensitivity
Reduced contrast sensitivity
General or specific loss of color vision
Day “blindness”
Need for bright indoor lighting
Need for array of tools to help manage vision in multiple lighting conditions
“As a low vision specialist for 25 years, I believe EnChroma Lx is the most effective amber, blue light blocking lens that successfully addresses glare without reducing color and contrast. My patients see better and enjoy improved vision,” Selma Chin, Doctor of Optometry at Vista Center in Palo Alto, California, revealedin a company news release.
People with conditions such as cataracts, corneal damage, optic neuropathy, macular degeneration, glaucoma and other visual disorders associated with glare sensitivity and reduced color vision may also benefit from wearing EnChroma Lx glasses, EnChroma stated.
