UV Protection 
To the eye, ultra-violet (UV) radiation is a dangerous component inflicting cumulative damage. UV radiation can be divided into three categories, each having different effects upon the eye: UVC, UVB & UVA.


 

ORMA UVX

Orma UVX offers total protection against UV radiation, thereby reducing the cumulative damage caused to the ocular media.
Those who would benefit from Orma UVX include:
  Children who are very sensitive to the UV light
  Aphakics, who risk retinal damage without protection
  People subjected to intense bright light
  People on certain medications who have an
 
  
increased sensitivity to UV radiation (e.g. tranquilisers, antibiotics, oral contraceptives and anti-histamines)
  People exposed to sunlight - either in the mountains, at sea or at the water's edge

NB: UVX is only available on Orma 1.5 and can be combined with Crizal Forte, Crizal Alizé +, Crizal Easy and the Supra hard coating. A charge will be made for the addition of the UVX treatment.
