In choosing lenses for our sunglasses, we wanted the best performance we could find. That’s why we partnered with optics industry leader Carl Zeiss Vision to create NYDEF® lenses. Using a nylon construction, NYDEF® lenses offer revolutionary performance and visual enhancement.

Superior Clarity

NYDEF® lenses use a nylon construction material that offers a significant boost in clarity compared to polycarbonate used in most other sunglass lenses. Nylon has high material purity, causing less light correction and a greater overall clarity when compared to polycarbonate. Enhanced clarity means better vision and higher performance, allowing you to see deeper below the surface of the water when fishing, spot more details when skiing or hiking trails, more accurately read golf greens, and improve every experience of your active life.

The Proof

The Abbe number of a lens serves as an indication for the chromatic aberration, or the failure to focus light onto a single point that causes blurring. NYDEF® lenses rival glass lenses in clarity with an impressively high Abbe number of 52, thanks to the material pureness of the nylon used. When compared to polycarbonate lenses used in most other sunglasses with an average Abbe number of 30, NYDEF® lenses provide higher image definition and crisper vision.

Performance and Style

With superior clarity, less eye strain and ultralight weight, our NYDEF® lenses truly set themselves apart. These lenses come in Polarized, Standard and an innovative NYDEF® Golf view. There are also many options as it relates to lens color, mirrored and non-mirrored lenses. NYDEF® lenses, like Popticals themselves, reflect and support your active life.
