What B-Thin active design is about?

 

B-Thin active design is the combination of the last cutting edge technologies:

•       Software using most advanced algorithms to create customized design at the backside of the lens.

•       Compensated power technology.

•       Freeform surfacing technology.

•       Largest semi-finished lenses 80mm with decentration up to 9mm.

The B-Thin active design lenses have an optical area at the center, followed by a transition zone up to the edge portion.

 

 

 

 

Originally developed for the most demanding Bollé athletes, B-Thin active design allows 99% of the wearers to get the best of the optical technology:

 

•       Precision: Premium optical clarity

•       Protection: Sun and aerodynamic (base 8)

•       Security: Best impact resistance

•       Comfort: Lightness and equilibrium

 

 

Benefits for the wearer

 

The cells of the retina consist of 5% cones and 95% rods

Cones : in the center part of the retina, allows the vision of colors and sharpness (max of acuity).

Rods : in the side area, allows scotopic vision (low light conditions) with weak acuity. Very important in the perception of movement coming from the side.(dynamic activities).

The maximum of acuity is located at the center of the Macula. Above 12°, the acuity falls quickly.

 Considering the low peripheral acuity, we turn the head to look at an object beyond a zone of +/-15 °.

B-Thin active design respects perfectly the binoculaire vision.

B-Thin active design requires all the competency of the optician.

 

 

This is why the algorithm of calculation allowing to surface the transition zone was the object of deepened researches so as to protect the continuity of the vision (no gap of image) by taking into account the retinal acuity and the release of the movement of the head.

 

Wearers statistics

The regular RX programs offer solutions of 85% of the prescription wearers, B-Thin active design enlarge the potential to 99%.

B-Thin active design : The widest prescription range on 8 base frame in the World.

RX Cut Outs:

Direct in shield means there will be a cut out in the shield where the prescription will be put in. The whole lens will not be prescription.  Lenses will be made with the Bolle Authentic B-Thin design.  B-Thin utilizes software that can make the most advanced calculations to create a more customized lens and the ultimate in lightweight optics (Freeform Digital technology is part of this lens).  An axial compensation of the prescription takes into account the size of the frame and the wearer's facial anatomy if necessary.  This ensures optimum precision, comfort and frame balance for sports glasses.  Available in 99% of prescriptions.  B-Thin lenses are up to 72% thinner and 45% lighter than other lens technology.  Available in polycarbonate and Trivex lens materials.  Both are impact resistant but Trivex has slightly better optical clarity.  Photochromic (light changing) lenses are only available in Trivex material.  Trivex lenses also include backside AR for free. It can be added on to Polycarbonate lens material lenses. Available prescriptions +6.00 to -6.00 total power (sphere plus cylinder) with maximum of 4.00 cylinder power. Minimum PD 58.  Estimated processing time:  3 weeks.
