MR-8™ – TRIED AND TESTED AS THE BEST OPTION FOR YOUR LENS.
MR-8™ increases tensile and flexural strength of the lenses so they can withstand both bending and stretching. And you have lenses that
are both tough and worry-free.

MR-8™ R.I. 1.60 – INDEED A MAGNIFICENT LENS MATERIAL.
MR-8™ has indeed been proven to be the best balanced high index lens material with the largest share in the R.I. 1.60 lens material
market. It has the unique benefit of being suited to any strength ophthalmic lens and sets new standards in lens materials.

Customer Benefits

• MR-8™ offers various advantages
• It gives high impact resistance, which mean that it makes the lens stronger.
• It also gives the lens a very high tensile strength which makes it more durable during bending and curving processes.
• It has a very high static load resistance which means that it is able to bear high pressure without any damage.
• It has passed several tests including the Butterfly Test.
• It has a high ABBE number.
• It has great compatibility with all coatings.
• It allows for colour change in lenses.

Technical Titbits

MR-8™ has a high refractive index. which makes the lens thinner and lighter. It also has excellent
impact resistance. In fact, MR-8™ lens has passed the US-FDA impact resistance standard test with
flying colours. It also allows for excellent optical quality with minimal chronic aberration and high
transparency. It facilitates easy processing being easy to cast, process and tint. It also allows for a
high degree of flexibility in lens design fitting perfectly into rimless frames and high curve designs.
It is of the finest quality being produced in Japan under strict quality management standards.
