TechShield Plus is a category C anti-reflective coating that provides exceptional visual performance, cosmetic appearance, durability, and cleanability.
UVR technology helps protect against UV radiation reflected off the backside of the lens. And while UV protection is highly recommended, it may not be for everyone. With TechShield Plus, you have the option to add UVR or not, giving you and your patients even more choice.
TechShield Plus eliminates harsh glare from sources such as sunlight, overhead lighting, and oncoming headlights, making for clearer, more comfortable, safer vision.
