For the past couple of months, I’ve had the opportunity to test the Optic Nerve Response.

I’ve had corrective laser eye surgery so I’m really picky when it comes to choosing my sun glasses. I believe that sun glasses should not only look good but actually perform as intended.
The Response’s lenses automatically adjusts to darken or lighten depending on the amount of sun light or UV exposure. That means no extra lenses needed to change out from. At the same token, no extra lenses needed to keep up with. An even added bonus is that it’s impact resistant with 100% UV protection.
