Anti‑IR Functional Optical Lenses
Infrared radiation accounts for over 50% of solar energy, making it the largest proportion of invisible light in sunlight. However, most people only focus on UV and blue light damage, while largely ignoring the chronic eye harm caused by infrared rays. Infrared radiation is divided into near-infrared (780–1300nm) and far-infrared (1300–2000nm), with extremely strong penetrating power that can reach approximately 30mm beneath the skin. In particular, near-infrared rays can pass through the iris and reach the retina directly. Long-term cumulative exposure accelerates ocular tissue aging and increases the risk of eye lesions such as cataracts. Meanwhile, excessive incident light wave energy in strong light environments causes glare. Ordinary sun lenses only block UV rays and cannot reduce full-spectrum strong light energy, failing to relieve visual fatigue and glare discomfort.
Aojie Optical Anti-IR functional optical lenses are equipped with exclusive non-polarized anti-glare technology, delivering precise optical modulation across a wide wavelength range of 200nm–2000nm. While maintaining clear vision, the lenses effectively reduce incident light wave energy and block both near and far infrared radiation. Without relying on a polarizing structure, they achieve strong anti-glare performance and avoid visual interference with electronic screens and dashboards caused by polarized lenses, providing comprehensive light health protection for outdoor work, driving, high-altitude activities and other scenarios.
Infrared radiation accounts for over 50% of solar energy; the lenses cover full-spectrum modulation from 200nm to 2000nm and reduce 60% of incident light wave energy; they precisely block near-infrared (780–1300nm) and far-infrared (1300–2000nm) rays; infrared rays can penetrate approximately 30mm under human skin, and near-infrared rays can reach the retina and cause cumulative damage.
Product Advantages
Full-Spectrum Infrared Blocking & Comprehensive Light Protection
The lenses cover the whole band of near-infrared (780–1300nm) as well as far-infrared (1300–2000nm). Their unique property of limiting infrared rays penetration fills in the gap of the protection offered by traditional lenses, which are able to prevent only the harmful UV rays, to an extent, and establishes a far more extensive defense system that covers all the aspects of the eyes light protection.
Non-Polarized Anti-Glare Technology with Friendly Visual Experience
The optical design, which incorporates a special non-polarized anti-glare technology, works by the precise reduction of almost all (about 60%) of light wave energy in the 200-2000nm range of the spectrum through optical coating. This technology makes it possible to have a comfortable viewing experience by eliminating even the strongest light glares at the root. Besides, the non-polarized feature does not show the rainbow patterns in a display and does not make the dashboard visual image a bit deviated and thus the technology is great for those who spend most of their time on driving and working on computer or other electronic gadgets.
Long-Term Ocular Health Protection & Reduced Lesion Risk
Through the blockage of the penetration of infrared rays, the lenses significantly minimize the harm of photothermal damages caused by near-infrared rays on the retinas and irises and thus help in delaying the ocular aging and reducing the induction possibility of cataract when exposed to long periods of light irradiation. So it is highly suitable for the ones engaged in long-term outdoor work and activities.
Excellent Optical Flatness & Natural Clear Imaging
In addition to meeting the infrared blocking and anti-glare performance requirements, the lenses also feature the top levels of optical homogeneity and flatness characteristics which result in distortion-free vision and true colors reproduction, and ultimately help reducing eyes strain of a person during long-time wearing.
Wide Scene Adaptability & Custom Development Support
The lenses can be perfectly applied to the situations of driving, sports activities, working with safety goggles, as well as different kinds of eyeglass frames. We offer customer customization for the base curves, diameter, and appearance of the lenses to meet their functional and aesthetic needs in diverse scenarios of outdoors, manufacturing or driving
