Polar PhD™
Serengeti Polar PhD lenses deliver clearly superior eyewear for the ultimate journey, featuring the very latest in polarization, photochromic technologies, exclusive hues and high-definition benefits that are near-glass in clarity. Our Polar PhD lens is so revolutionary; it received the coveted international Silmo d'Or award in the lens category for innovation and performance – a first for a sunglass manufacturer.

Advanced Polarized Surface Technology
Moving well beyond the laminate process most manufacturers use, our engineers developed exclusive advanced Polarized Surface Technology, which works by infusing technology into the lens on a microscopic level, so polarization properties are embedded onto the surface and won't delaminate or wear off.

9% transmittance darkened lens
88% blue light blocked lightened lens
95% blue light blocked darkened lens
Three-part harmony
Every photochromic Polar PhD™ lens incorporates three technologies that control the way light interacts with the lens. Photochromic properties allow the lens to instantly adapt to changing light conditions, while Spectral Control® manages specific colors in the light spectrum for the utmost definition, contrast and color enhancement. And polarization minimizes surface glare on the road and elsewhere to reduce eye fatigue.
