Hoya targets sports market

Hoya has introduced a range of wrapped lenses in a selection of base curves, tints and surface treatments to suit different sporting activities.

The Sportive high curved sports lenses and Special Sphere tints are based around two families of lenses: Nulux Sportive for single vision and Hoyalux Sportive for progressive designs.

Hoya has promoted the lenses as a must for serious sports enthusiasts and highlighted the benefits of a curved lens in protecting the eyes against, wind, dust and glare. As the lenses are surfaced on six or eight base they are suitable for glazing into a variety of frame designs and offer a wide field of vision.
