ChromaPop
Smith Optics' patented ChromaPop lens technology lets you see detail and colour like never before! The polarised ChromaPop lenses filter light at two specific wavelengths where colour confusion occurs. As a result, the lens offers better colour definition, stronger natural colours and unsurpassed clarity. Normally, the retina of the eye has difficulty distinguishing between blue and green light and between red and green light. ChromaPop filters out these overlaps, allowing for better colour definition, natural colours and perfect clarity. The ChromaPop polarised lenses are optically tuned to provide visual comfort and impact resistance with enhanced glare protection. They also feature water and oil resistant anti-reflective coatings. 100% UV protection.

An excellent all-round lens for different light conditions and all uses in fresh- and saltwater.
