Lens Materials and Properties being bonded together non-molecularly...
The ColorTect Infusion™ Process
Solaire lenses, featuring the patented ColorTect Infusion™ process, are not dyed. Instead, they are created in a state-of-the-art vacuum chamber, completely free of impurities, where microscopic layers of color are fused into the lens. This creates diamond-hard two-sided scratch protection, backside anti-glare technology, and a backside hydrophobic topcoat.
