When you see more you can do more! Smith Optics' proprietary ChromaPop lens technology enhances clarity and natural color to let you effortlessly see more detail. More detail gives you the advantage needed to perform confidently and have more fun on the water. The polarized ChromaPop lenses help you to see details and colors beyond normal capabilities. ChromaPop filters two specific wavelengths of light that cause color confusion. By doing this the lens delivers greater definition, more natural color, and unmatched clarity.

ChromaPop makes details pop and cuts glare through Smith Optics impact-resistant carbonic lenses. They are optically tuned to give you visual comfort and impact protection with enhanced glare reduction – while also offering antireflective, water and oil resistant coatings. 100% UV protection.
