5th June 2012 Sun lenses vary in quality and it is absolutely essential to check what you are buying if you want to be sure that your eyes are getting proper UV protection. For a really exceptional lens with a good-looking, hand-finished luxury frame, these new designs from L.G.R. would take a lot of beating.

The mirrored lenses are part of L.G.R.’s Polarized Neophan series and they come in soothing shades of green, red and blue. Made of tempered mineral glass by the renowned Italian lens specialist Barberini, these photochromic lenses offer IR (infrared) and 100% UV protection, are anti-scratch and impact resistant, and have an oleo and hydrophobic protective coating (extra built-in water and oil protection). From the fashion viewpoint, the mirrored effect is very, very desirable at the moment; this interpretation is one that I like particularly as they are chic as opposed to flashy. Super, super collection for summer 2012. www.lgr-sunglasses.com CN
