Can I use Drivewear at night? |
 |
|
|
It is not recommended to use Drivewear lenses at night. Drivewear lenses are optimized for sunlight response, and since Drivewear is polarized, it can be too dark to wear after dusk. Many Vision & Highway Safety experts believe that NO tint should ever be used at night. |

Can I get Drivewear in finished single vision? |
|

Yes. Plano Drivewear lenses are available only in finished single vision. This is because Drivewear is a polarized lens and therefore must be on the 180° axis line at all times. It is available in multiple base curves in semi-finished single vision to match the Rx needs of the patient. |
