LAHAINA, Maui–Maui Jim has introduced the MauiPassport Rx lens, which provides prescription sunglass wearers, including those who prefer wrap-styles, clarity, acuity, color enhancement and glare protection across the entire field of view.

“Our new lenses are designed specifically for our frames, base curves and materials,” said Chris Abbruzzese, vice president of marketing for Maui Jim.

“Factors such as pantascopic tilt, panoramic tilt and vertex distance are taken into account, resulting in lenses that optimize the performance of each individual prescription. With our latest technological breakthrough, we’ve not only eliminated the mold process but created concrete benefits for both patients and practitioners alike.”

For both single vision and progressive prescriptions, the MauiPassport uses digital surfacing technology to create each lens, a back-surface lens design created in conjunction with Shamir Optical Industry Ltd. to compensate for wrap-induced distortion and provide perfect edge-to-edge clarity. According to Abbruzzese, the new Maui Jim digital surfacing process is accurate to within 1/100th of a diopter. The lenses also incorporate Maui Jim’s patented glare protection and color enhancement of PolarizedPlus2 technology.

MauiPassport lenses are available for polycarbonate and Maui Evolution 1.6, in single vision and progressive and are priced to the dispenser between $207 to $614 for the lens.
