Shamir Attitude III® - Fashion

2017-01-12T07:03:36+00:00

Taking our Attitude One Step Further.

At Shamir, we understand that being active and playing sports requires different Rx sun lenses than lounging at the beach with friends. We also understand that different people want different frames to express their attitude and personal style. That’s why we’ve taken the already successful Shamir Autograph II - Attitude^™ lens design one step further and developed two unique progressive lenses - one for fashion and one for sports.

The design of these two new lenses addresses the visual needs of fashion and sport prescription sunwear in a wide range of frames - large or small, flat or wraparound. So when it comes to sunwear, we have your patients covered, they just need to choose their Attitude.

Advanced Technologies

1. EYEPOINT TECHNOLOGY III^® The Real-World-Vision Experience

By addressing the entire prescription-related viewing experience, our innovative EyePoint Technology III^® is able to simulate real world images by reverse engineering the lens design. This enables the lenses to provide an improved viewing experience for all patients, regardless of their prescription or choice of frame, and makes the field of vision of myopic and hyperopic patients both similar and improved.

2. Natural Posture™
Ergonomic Design Concept

This advanced new technology dynamically positions the near viewing zone within the lens corridor, while taking into account the plus or minus power of the prescription. This reduces the need to tilt the head or move near objects to find the right viewing distance and angle, minimizing discomfort and allowing for a natural and comfortable near viewing posture.

3. IntelliCorridor^™ Unique Power Profile for Clearer Vision

This new technology allows our designers to control the power profile of each lens, giving variable emphasis at every point on the lens. Based on this optimal power profile, the lens design can better address the specific needs of sports and fashion, without compromising on overall viewing comfort.

4. AS-WORN QUADRO^™ Perfect Vision for Any Frame Choice

This technological advancement is based on our proven As-Worn Technology^™, which provides prescription compensation by taking into consideration the unique parameters of the chosen frame. The new Quadro technology provides additional design compensation with four times greater design stability for any frame tilt variations. The unique combination of prescription and design compensation ensures complete viewing comfort for any frame shape and when switching from one pair to another.

Extended Range

Base Curves & Panoramic Angles
The Shamir Attitude III family - progressive Sport & Fashion and SV lenses - supports a wider range of face-form angles and base curves, to optimally suit any frame, flat or wraparound, while maintaining all of the design advantages. This extended range, allows for more frames to be fitted with precisely compatible lenses, very similar to the frame’s demo lenses, ensuring the perfect fit and great looking sunwear.

While maintaining perfect precision in the development of a high-quality progressive lens, we have ensured that patients can now stay up-to-date and chic while wearing their prescription sunglasses.

Shamir Golf™

2017-04-13T11:18:56+00:00

Focusing on what’s important on the green.

Every golfer has his day… you know the day we’re talking about. The sun was shining, the birds were chirping, your swing was powerful and exact, and the ball did everything you willed it to… you played the best game of your life. Now with Shamir Golf^™, every day out on the green can be your best day!

Designed for your visual sweet spots.

Shamir Golf^™ is a Freeform^® lens designed to ensure all your patients experience their perfect game. Unlike standard progressives, the three vision zones are specifically tailored to the needs of golfers to maximize their viewing: the scorecard in their hand, the ball at their feet and the green in the distance. Shamir Golf^™ provides sharp focus without distortion in these three crucial areas. And before we forget, it’s the first Golf lens designed with a stable mid-range zone to ensure the ball on the ground can be seen clearly so your patients will have an accurate drive or putt.

The Secret? It's all in the hips.

Well, for your lenses, the secret is in the peripheral vision. A golfer’s peripheral vision is extremely important when they are lining up to take a swing. They need to be able to focus on the ball at their feet and at the same time see where they want the ball to go in the distance. This is where they utilize their peripheral zone and need it to be crystal clear. Lucky for them, Shamir Golf^™ is designed specifically for wraparound frames and has a clear peripheral vision zone so your patients can keep on improving their game.

Take it from the experts who designed the first distortion-free solution for wrap frames, when it comes to providing those patients who enjoy spending time on the green with a progressive solution, Shamir Golf^™ will give them the vision they need.

Taking wrap lenses to the next level

Being an active presbyope wearing aerodynamic wrap sunglasses over your prescription glasses kind of defeats the purpose of wind resistance.

It’s de-centered, fully aspheric back-surface results in a premium wrap progressive that offers optimal zone widths and clear, distortion-free viewing.
