Durabon technologies

Conceptual image DuraTraceTECHNOLOGY

DuraTrace

Ray tracing in the actual position of wear

DuraTrace analyses ray paths and wavefronts. Lens-to-eye distance and frame angles contribute to calculations in designs using this technology.

Conceptual image DuraCore AITECHNOLOGY

DuraCore AI

Computational surface optimisation

The stated computational approach optimises surface geometry and power distribution; its use depends on the specific product's information.

Conceptual image DuraApertureTECHNOLOGY

DuraAperture

Considering pupil aperture

In designs equipped with this technology, pupil diameter and viewing conditions are considered in the optical calculations.

Conceptual image DuraMeshTECHNOLOGY

DuraMesh

Continuity of the power map

Network-based surface optimisation to manage power changes and peripheral-field stability.

Conceptual image DuraBaseTECHNOLOGY

DuraBase

Calculation based on nominal power

Standard power calculation for designs that do not use full compensation of individual parameters; distinct from DuraTrace.

Conceptual image DuraFit Inset / Core InsetTECHNOLOGY

DuraFit Inset / Core Inset

Positioning the near-vision corridor

Inset is the inward horizontal displacement of the near-vision path. DuraFit Inset and Core Inset are distinct approaches; read the type and range for each model.

Working distances in real space

Office-lens near/intermediate ranges are selected according to screen distance and workspace dimensions. They differ from general distance lenses.

Conceptual image DuraShieldTECHNOLOGY

DuraShield

Caring for the lens surface

This coating is described as water/oil repellent and scratch resistant. Scratch resistance is not absolute scratch-proofing; confirm availability for each product.

DuraTech LR

Reducing surface reflections

A low-reflection coating reduces light-source reflections on the lens surface. Transmission and spectral-filter range must be read from the product's own test and chart.
