Serengeti® has a rich history of eyewear technology innovations. It all began in 1877 when Corning® patented a lens with improved mechanical and thermal durability. In 1912, Corning® developed Borosilicate glass that could withstand sudden temperature changes. In 1964, the first true photochromic borosilicate glass was invented, hailed as one of the most stimulating innovations in the ophthalmic industry.
Serengeti® makes the most technically advanced eyewear available. High-performance photochromic and polarized lenses with Spectral Control® are specifically tailored to care for the eyes of drivers and pilots in ever-changing conditions. The products themselves are crafted from the highest quality materials and styled with an elegance that endures the test of time.
Serengeti® sunglasses have always been considered the most technologically advanced eyewear in the world. The brand's polarized lenses have a spectral control selective filter for the light waves, photochromic technology, automatic adjustment to ambient light, ideal for low-light and high brightness, and UV protection thanks to a single lens that blocks 100% UVB and 98.5% UVA, surpassing all standards in force. They also have an anti-reflection coating that prevents retroreflection. The borosilicate glass resists scratching because the chemical hardening provides resistance testing dropping a steel sphere, which is unique to each crystal. The polarization eliminates glare and reduces eye fatigue.
Serengeti® sunglasses are ideal for driving and airline pilots. Besides their spectacular specifications, Serengeti® works with elegant frames and timeless style adapted to a demanding public. The brand has been the choice of famous personalities like Val Kilmer, Peta Wilson, Patrick Dempsey, James Alain Prost, and Denton.
