Cocoons Eyewear - Low Vision Absorptive Filters

To address the needs of people with various visual impairments, we offer a specialty range of Cocoons featuring special absorptive filters developed specifically for low vision applications. You should not use low vision tints unless directed by your ophthalmologist or physician. Low Vision Cocoons feature non-polarized front and side shields in four specific tints that are proven to increase visual acuity when used in conjunction with various types of vision related conditions. Designed to be worn over prescription glasses, Low Vision Cocoons are available in all six sizes and can be worn equally well as a conventional sunglass.


		BOYSENBERRY General purpose lens tint that is great for indoor and outdoor use. The darker tint provides effective glare control. This lens is not designed to block blue light, so it provides minimal contrast enhancement. The lens allows 15% visible light transmission and provides 100% UVA/UVB protection. Blocks all visible light up to 410 nm.		HAZELNUT Reduces glare and provides heightened contrast when used for indoor and outdoor applications. Ideal for variable light conditions requiring both glare control and contrast enhancement. The lens allows 18% visible light transmission and provides 100% UVA/UVB protection. Blocks 98% of blue light and all visible light up to 410 nm.


		LEMON Maximizes brightness and enhances contrast in low light conditions to improve visual acuity. The lens allows 82% light transmission and provides 100% UVA/UVB protection. Blocks 40% of blue light and all visible light up to 470 nm.		ORANGE Maximizes contrast enhancement by intensifying backgrounds to improve object definition and clarity. The lens allows 34% light transmission and provides 100% UVA/UVB protection. Blocks 100% of blue light and all visible light up to 520 nm.

All Low Vision Cocoons front lenses and side shields are scratch resistant and optically correct. The non-polarized polycarbonate lenses are extremely durable and designed to withstand harsh treatment during daily use. As with all Cocoons, the Low Vision models feature adjustable Flex2Fit temples, Ballistic Nylon™ frames with Soft Touch finishes and 360° of wrap around protection. The side shields are precisely regulated to match the exact light transmission, UV cut off and tint of the accompanying front lenses. All Low Vision Cocoons include complimentary accessories (carrying case, lens cleaning cloth) and a Use and Care Guide.


		Flex2Fit^® Temples Cocoons adjustable Flex2Fit temples are designed for quick and easy manual adjustment of the shape and curvature of the ear pieces. This unique feature allows each wearer to achieve an exact fit that is secure and comfortable during extended wear. Click here for detailed fitting instructions.

		360° of Protection It is important that a sunglass provides protection from all angles, not just the front. Standard sunglasses can allow up to 40% more unfiltered light to reach the eyes because they do not provide protection from the top, bottom and sides. Cocoons patented frame designs block damaging UV light and glare from all angles (top, bottom and sides), completely isolating the eyes in a cocoon of filtered light.

		Maximum Comfort and Durability Cocoons frames are constructed from Ballistic Nylon™ and feature a supple soft touch finish for the ultimate combination of durability and comfort. Low Vision Cocoons are available in black frames only.


		Included Accessories Each pair includes a custom designed protective neoprene case, large lens cloth and a limited lifetime warranty. Click here for additional accessory options, or contact Live Eyewear at 800.834.2563.

		Authentic OveRx Cocoons are authentic OveRx sunglasses that feature patented designs and components that are covered by a lifetime warranty. Genuine Cocoons sunglasses feature the OveRx medallion.
