ChromaPop Lens Technology
Smith's patented ChromaPop™ lens technology enhances clarity and natural colour to let you live every moment in more detail. More detail gives you the advantage needed to perform confidently and have more fun.
Through their proprietary ChromaPop™ polarised lens technology, smith help you see detail and colour beyond normal capabilities. ChromaPop™ filters two specific wavelengths of light that cause colour confusion. By doing this the lens delivers greater definition, more natural colour, and unmatched clarity to allow you to see more detail.
Normally
The eye’s retina has trouble distinguishing between blue and green, and red and green light perception.
With ChromaPop™
ChromaPop™ filters these specific crossovers, allowing greater definition, natural color, and clarity.
