Shining a Light on Headlight Glare: How Honeycomb Coating Illuminates Your Drive

SHINING A LIGHT ON HEADLIGHT GLARE: HOW HONEYCOMB COATING ILLUMINATES YOUR DRIVE

In the age of advanced automotive technology, LED headlights have become a common sight on the roads, promising enhanced visibility for drivers. However, a recent survey conducted by the RAC reveals a startling statistic – almost nine-in-10 (89%) of drivers have found the headlights of cars on the road today are too bright and cause glare issues. As we navigate the dazzling glow on our nightly drives, it’s crucial to find solutions that not only address this issue but also prioritise safety and comfort. Enter Jai Kudo Lenses’ Honeycomb coating, a breakthrough in eyewear technology designed to mitigate glare and elevate the driving experience. 

THE GLARING ISSUE 

Headlight glare is more than just an inconvenience; it poses a real threat to road safety. With the widespread adoption of LED headlights, over two-thirds of drivers surveyed are having to slow down considerably, impacting their ability to see clearly and react swiftly to changes on the road. The RAC survey underscores the urgency of addressing this pervasive problem and has called on Government to conduct more research into this. However, for those who wear glasses to drive there is an effective and practical solution. 

THE HONEYCOMB SOLUTION 

Enter Jai Kudo Lenses’ Honeycomb coating for lenses – a game-changer for those who suffer from glare in both high and low light settings. Designed to improve vision and reduce fatigue, this Honeycomb coating is applied to a lens surface creating a matrix of hexagonal cells. Inspired by nature, this coating has been engineered to distribute light more evenly helping you to see more clearly and comfortably, ensuring clear and comfortable vision for drivers, day or night. 

PROVEN PERFORMANCE 

What sets the Honeycomb coated lenses apart is their proven track record in reducing fatigue and eye glare. Backed by testing and positive user experiences, this coating has anti-reflective qualities to virtually eliminate reflections on lens surfaces. Under normal conditions Honeycomb coating appears completely clear, you will only see the design under very close inspection or when the lens becomes misted. 

As we continue to adapt to the ever-evolving landscape of automotive technology, it’s essential to address the challenges that come with it. Jai Kudo Lenses’ Honeycomb coating stands as a beacon of innovation, offering drivers a clear vision amidst the glaring lights. Don’t let headlight glare compromise the safety of your patients – make the switch to Honeycomb and support them in driving with confidence. Better yet, why not try combining our Drivesense lenses with Honeycomb coating for the ultimate driving specs?

Zocular Eyelid System Treatment (ZEST) for Dry Eye and Demodex

We’re delighted to be able to offer you quick and effective blepharitis treatment with Zocular Eyelid System Technology (ZEST), exclusively distributed by The Body Doctors Ltd and backed by clinical trials.

ZEST (Zocular Eyelid System Treatment) is an exciting new treatment developed by Zocular® to treat dry eye, demodex and blepharitis and is now available at Simply Vision Opticians.

Dry eye and blepharitis are often associated with poor hygiene of the eye area. ZEST is an in-office lid cleaning and debridement system using a natural okra-based gel. The procedure is quick and painless, bringing immediate relief to symptoms of irritation and dry eye.

Eye hygiene includes keeping the eyelids, eyelid margin and lashes clean. Dirt and debris on the edges of your eyelids can lead to symptoms of itching, burning and gritty eyes. With every blink, the debris may enter the tear film and coat the eye, leading to redness and irritation. Poor eye hygiene can also lead to demodex mites in the hair follicles. Demodex can exacerbate inflammation and dry eye symptoms by blocking the oil glands at the base of your eyelashes. ZEST is an effective treatment for killing demodex mites, removing dirt and debris and relieving associated inflammation.

What is ZEST?

ZEST (Zocular Eyelid System Treatment) is like a deep shampoo for the eyes to clean and debride the lids and lashes. The procedure involves applying a gel to the eyelid margin and lashes with a cotton swab and cleaning in a circular motion, working the gel into a lather. Following the deep cleansing procedure, the gel is rinsed off with saline solution. The ZEST gel is formulated with a refined extract of okra- an edible green seed pod; to lift and clear oil, debris and residue along the eyelid margin. Okra is a powerful cleansing ingredient that is also gentle to use around the eye, helping to calm and soothe inflammation. After only one treatment, patients will notice an improvement in their dry eye symptoms, blepharitis and demodex. ZEST may be the answer to help your eyes look and feel better.

Dry eye professionals and patients are impressed with how well and how fast ZEST treatment works. Professionals note how thoroughly it cleans and patients in clinical trials have reported an improvement in symptoms within minutes, with a particularly improved tolerance of wearing contact lenses.

As well as the Okra complex, ZEST gel also includes a blend of vitamins, Lutein, Zeaxanthin and Flavonoids, all designed to support healthy tissues in the eyes, mucous membranes and the skin around the eyes.
