The difference is in the lens
See the world the way it was meant to be seen.
Every Maré frame is fitted with CR39, the lens material the finest eyewear houses have used for over eighty years. Not glass. Not cheap plastic.
What you notice
Four things you feel on the first day.
Superior clarity
Sharper vision, less distortion across the whole lens.
Lightweight comfort
Light enough to forget you are wearing them.
Scratch resistant
Naturally hard, not a coating that wears off.
100% UV protection
Complete UVA and UVB, on every pair.
The alternative
CR39 against polycarbonate.
Polycarbonate is cheap to mould. That is why so many brands can run eight versions of the same frame, and why half of Australia is selling two pairs for $80. Here is what you are actually choosing between.
| CR39 | Polycarbonate | |
|---|---|---|
| Optical clarity | Abbe value about 58Clearer | Abbe value about 30 |
| Colour accuracy | True to lifeTruer | Slight colour fringing at the edges |
| All-day wearability | Easy on the eyes hour after hour. Nothing for them to fight.Kinder | Edge fringing means the eyes keep compensating. Some wearers feel it by the end of a long day. |
| Scratch resistance | Naturally hardHarder | Soft, relies on a coating that wears |
| UV protection | 100% UVA and UVB | 100% UVA and UVB |
Every frame
The same lens in all six.
There is no upgrade tier and no better version. Whichever you choose, you get the same optics.
