Abstract
A multi-colored lens for eyewear is disclosed. The lens includes a plurality of segments including a lower segment coated with a blue dye, an upper segment coated with a red/orange dye and middle segment serving to transition between the blue and red/orange dyes. The multi-colored lens provides numerous advantages as a golf aid in assisting the wearer to view the ball. The lower blue segment assists a wearer in viewing a golf ball against a green surface while the upper red/orange segments assists the wearer in viewing the golf ball against a blue or gray sky.
Claims14
A lens for eyewear comprising:
- a lower segment having a first coating applied thereon having a first color, wherein the first color being a portion of the color spectrum having a wavelength range of 450-495 nm or a frequency range of 670-610 THz;
- an upper segment having a second coating applied thereon having a second color, wherein the second color includes a portion of the color spectrum having a wavelength range of 590-750 nm or a frequency range of 505-400 THz, wherein the second coating applied to the upper segment is a second water-soluble dye including (i) a red molecular catalytic tint and (ii) an orange molecular catalytic tint;
- and
- a middle segment being a transition period between the lower segment and the upper segment wherein the first coating and the second coating blend together to produce a range within the color spectrum.
