FAQ

What’s the difference between Fovea and Fovea Mid?

Fovea Mid has a narrower, shallower shell for smaller faces; optics and features remain the same.

Which lens category should I pick?

Choose S3 for bright sun, S2 as an all-rounder; match VLT and tint to your expected conditions.

Do they work over prescription glasses?

They’re not OTG-specific, but slimmer frames may fit. Check for comfort and no contact with the lens.
