Younger Optics polarised lenses are now available for high-prescription patients with the launch of NuPolar in 1.74 high index material. 

Prior to this release, high-prescription patients were left with heavy and thick polarised lenses, or had to forgo polarised lenses completely, said Craig Johnston, Younger Optics national sales and marketing manager. “We expect the eyecare industry to welcome this expansion into high index polarised lenses.” 

Benefits of the NuPolar 1.74 release include lighter polarised eyewear for greater comfort and improved aesthetics, with lenses looking more attractive in the frame, Johnston said. “NuPolar 1.74 polarisation characteristics are the same as all NuPolar products. They offer excellent heat stability, superb adhesion characteristics virtually eliminating the possibility of delamination, consistent true curve control, high polarisation efficiency and unrivalled colour uniformity.”
