Why we develop Nanomite™ lens
Onelens Solution started to develop Nanomite™ Lens after realising the danger of infrared light, blue violet light and UV rays to our eyes. Nanomite™ Lens is the world's first optical lenses that brings complete protection to your eyes.
Ozone depletion, global warming and our environment has poses a major threat to our eyes. This amplifies the importance of a pair of lenses that can protect our eyes from harmful infrared light, blue violet light and UV rays.
1.Ozone depletion
The ozone layer is a belt of naturally occurring gas that sits above the Earth and serves as a shield from the harmful infrared light, blue violet light and UV rays emitted by the sun. Deterioration of the ozone layer allows large amount of harmful infrared light, blue violet light and UV rays to reach Earth. Such harmful light can cause cataracts, blindness and other serious eye diseases.
2.Global warming
Greenhouse gas emissions are trapping more heat and is causing the Earth's surface temperature to rise. The heat from Greenhouse gases absorbs and emits infrared radiation, which is harmful to our eyes. Excessive infrared light absorbed by the eyes can burn the eye tissues and cause damage to the retina.
3.Our environment
All matter with temperature greater than zero emits thermal radiation. Infrared radiation is an example of thermal radiation emitted from many objects around us, such as light bulbs, toasters, hair dryers, remote controls and other household appliances. Thermal radiation is also emitted in a lot of industrial manufacturing processes. Infrared technology is also used in many industries such as weather forecasting, sports, scientific research, healthcare, survelliance and defence.
Exposure to strong infrared radiation is harmful to our eyes. Over a period of time, it can cause damage to our eyes.
Light Spectrum
Electromagnetic spectrum is a range of different radiation wavelength that consist of UV light, high energy visible light, blue light, and infrared light. The electromagnetic spectrum of an object is the distribution of radiation by either transmission, reflection or emission.
Electromagnetic spectrum is differentiated between visible and invisible lights.
• Visible light : Wavelength between 380nm to 780nm
• Invisible light : Comprises of Ultraviolet lights and Infrared lights
