🎾 The pros are battling it out at the Australian Open. If you play tennis, you face similar vision challenges as the pros: tracking a fast moving ball, reading your opponent's shots, dealing with glare off the court and tracking the bright yellow ball against sky or surfaces. Your eyes work hard throughout every match.

Sunglasses are essential, but so is choosing the right lens colour for tennis:

🤎 Brown: The top choice for bright sunny days. Increases contrast so you can track the ball more easily, reduces glare and enhances colours helping the yellow tennis ball to really pop.

🧡 Copper: Ideal for early morning, late afternoon or partly sunny conditions. Reduces glare, enhances depth perception and helps you focus on the ball in the distance.

🩶 Grey: Good for players spending hours in bright sun. Reduces glare effectively, keeps colours true and reduces eye fatigue during long matches.

And not only are these lens colours best for tennis, NuPolar's polarization further enhances by blocking blinding glare bouncing off hard courts and surrounding surfaces, helping you to track the ball more clearly and maintain focus through long matches!

🩶Grey is the most popular sunglass lens colour for good reason: it preserves true colour while handling bright conditions comfortably for all day wear.

When combined with NuPolar's polarization, Grey cuts glare and reduces eye strain and fatigue during extended outdoor time. Polarized Grey lenses are excellent for very bright conditions like the beach, snow or on the water because the dense tint reduces bright light, while the polarization handles intense glare from reflective surfaces.

Grey works across most outdoor activities: driving, beach days, outdoor sports, fishing, tennis and skiing. It's your reliable all rounder!

💡Dispensing Tip for Eyecare Professionals: If a patient isn't sure about colour choice, Grey is a safe starting recommendation. For patients who find Dark Grey too dark in variable light, NuPolar also offers Light Grey (65% tint) which maintains good colour perception while letting more light through.

NuPolar Grey lenses are available in Solid, Gradient and Mirror styles (with either Silver or Blue mirror finish).

Beach days during a long Summer are hard to beat 🏖️ 🌊 ☀️

But with the sun overhead, glare bouncing off the water and reflection from white sand, your eyes are working overtime.

Whether you’re reading, watching the kids in the surf or playing beach cricket, you’re dealing with some of the harshest light conditions around. And it feels like it.

That’s why a quality polarized lens like NuPolar is essential at the beach. It cuts blinding glare from water and reflective surfaces like white and wet sand, thereby reducing discomfort and helping you see more clearly… and enjoy your beach time much more!

Different lens colours perform better in different conditions. Here’s what works best at the beach:

🩶 Grey: The go to for extended time in bright sun. The dense tint reduces harsh light, removes glare and keeps colours true. Excellent for all day beach sessions.

💚Green: Also designed for bright conditions with the bonus of more contrast than Grey. Reduces glare and eye strain during long hours in the sun.

🤎Brown: Delivers enhanced contrast and depth perception while cutting glare. A soothing colour for all day wear.

NuPolar polarized lenses are available in Grey, Green and Brown in Solid tints, or Gradient styles for a fashionable look in Brown and Grey. NuPolar Mirror lenses add a reflective Blue, Silver or Gold mirror coating for extra style and additional glare reduction.

With 99% polarizing efficiency, NuPolar lenses cut through beach glare so you can stay comfortable from morning swim to sunset.

🚴The Tour Down Under is on right now, and those riders are dealing with the same vision challenges you face on every ride: long stages requiring concentration, winding roads, irregular surfaces and speeds that need split second reactions.

Add to this morning sun in your eyes as you climb, the midday glare off the road and the long shadows in the late afternoon when fatigue sets in. Hour after hour, your eyes are doing constant work.

Different sunglass lens colours perform better in different conditions - here's what works well for cycling:

🤎Brown: Handles most conditions well; cuts glare in bright sun while still giving good visibility when the light drops

🧡 Copper: Ideal for partly cloudy days and shaded sections to accentuate colours so surface changes and obstacles are spotted early

💛Yellow/Olive: For low light, haze or heavy overcast conditions; heightens contrast for best vision in poor conditions

NuPolar polarized lenses are available in Brown and Copper. Transitions Drivewear is also an option: it’s a polarized photochromic lens that automatically changes colour – Yellow/Olive to Copper to Dark Brown – to suit your current conditions while also darkening or fading to adapt to light intensity.

Being polarized, NuPolar and Transitions Drivewear block glare, reduce eye fatigue and enhance depth perception during those long days in the saddle.

Road trips bring constantly changing light conditions for your patients: bright sun, tree shade, sunrise, sunset and coastal haze. Each brings unique vision challenges.

Transitions Drivewear was engineered for exactly these conditions!

Combining Transitions photochromic technology with NuPolar polarization, it was developed by ophthalmologists and optometrists in the US. The result? A polarized photochromic lens that changes to three different colours to suit conditions, while also adjusting lens darkness.

This ingenious innovation transforms driving vision by adapting to every condition in ways fixed tint sunglasses or polarized lenses simply can't.

Transitions Drivewear blocks blinding glare, improves visibility and safety, enhances contrast and depth perception, delivers vibrant vision and provides 100% UV blockage.

Ultimately Transitions Drivewear helps your patients stay alert, confident and safer behind the wheel, making it a premium upgrade for patients heading into summer road trips!

Transitions Drivewear is available in 1.50, 1.53, 1.59 and 1.67.

Holiday drives on coastal roads, through mountain regions and lakeside routes should be spectacular.

But scattered light and glare from car bonnets, wet roads, reflective surfaces and bodies of water can wash out colours and fine detail, making the scenery harder to see. Regular tinted sunglass lenses can't block this type of glare; they only reduce brightness.

NuPolar polarized lenses block this glare so you experience the scenery the way it actually looks. Colours become more vivid, details sharper and those long drives feel less tiring.

Holiday road trips often mean changing light conditions: bright sun one minute and shade or haze the next.
That’s where choosing the right driving lens makes all the difference to your experience, comfort and safety.

Transitions Drivewear is the world's only polarized photochromic sunglass lens that changes to three colours!
It also adapts the darkness of the lens according to the amount of light available.

The lens changes from Olive in low light conditions and when heavily overcast, to Copper in the car in sunny conditions, to Dark Brown in bright sunny conditions.

Always polarized, Transitions Drivewear enhances contrast, depth and definition from early morning to late afternoon.

Whether it’s winding roads, coastal stretches or barren highways, Transitions Drivewear adapts to give wearers clearer and safer vision on every part of the journey.

Holiday driving season is here! And with long road trips ahead for many, this is the perfect moment to help patients upgrade their sunglass lenses before hitting the road.

A timely polarized lens recommendation can make holiday travel safer and far more enjoyable for your patients.
