What Are Altius Performance Lenses?
Altius lenses are performance-tinted soft contact lenses engineered with selective light-filtering technology. They block 100% of harmful UV rays and over 99% of blue light while allowing the rest of the color spectrum through with sharper clarity and greater visual comfort.
Available in two formulations — Amber and Grey-Green — Altius lenses can be made with or without a corrective prescription, making them accessible to anyone who wants enhanced visual performance or relief from light sensitivity.
Not just for athletes: Altius lenses are also used therapeutically for patients with photophobia, migraines, post-concussion symptoms, and traumatic brain injuries. The selective light filtering calms stressed visual pathways and reduces discomfort.
