Lens Technology — Mako Eyewear

Technically Superior

You haven’t experienced anything like Mako Polarized lenses. Our feature-laden lenses are created for outdoor sports enthusiasts, to improve your sight in all the situations you face.

ADVANCED POLARIZATION

Our lenses have the highest grade of polarizing efficiency - we like to call it “advanced polarization technology." The result is superior glare reduction from the water and solid surfaces, and higher levels of visual acuity.

ANTI-REFLECTIVE (AR) COATING

Industry-leading 12+ AR coatings, located on the back of each lens, provide superior protection from scattered and reflected light, and backside glare.

DECENTERED

Decentered lenses ensure that even high curve / wraparound lenses give you the most clarity and least distortion possible.

GLASS

Mako USA uses only glass lenses for our sunglasses to ensure ultimate clarity and scratch resistance.

HIGH DEFINITION (HD) FILTER

Most Mako lenses include HD filters which screen out harmful UV rays and certain wavelengths of visible light which cause distortion. By blocking these parts of the spectrum, our HD lenses deliver incredible clarity and comfortable all-day wearing.

INFRARED (IR) FILTER

Our Infrared (IR) series adds a further layer of protection by blocking the invisible radiant energy in the infrared range. This reduces heat transfer for even more comfort for all-day wearing, and fewer dry, itchy eyes.

OLEOPHOBIC & HYDROPHOBIC COATINGS

Our Hydrophobic coating repels water, which beads up and runs off the lens. The Oleophobic coating goes further, repelling oil, dust and dirt on the lens surface making the sunglasses easier to clean and even more scratch resistant.

ULTRAVIOLET (UV) PROTECTION

All Mako lenses provide 100% protection from harmful UVA and UVB rays. Exposure to the sun's ultraviolet rays has been linked to a wide variety of eye problems and damage.
