Tajima Lenses by Talex is the only lens manufacturer in the world to specialize exclusively in polarized lenses, and the only company to make our own polarizing filters. We have found it is the only way to eliminate distortion typically found in polarized lenses, while maintaining the highest Japanese standards of precision and quality.
Making and working with a polarizing filter that is only 0.03 mm-thin requires delicate techniques that can only come from decades of earned, hands-on experience. This experience and attention to detail is critical to producing the best polarized lenses that perform many tasks well – blocking harmful UV rays, having excellent resolving power, and filtering out “noisy light” while being gentle on the eyes and removing all distortion.

CLEAR SIGHT WITHOUT GLARE.
The super-thin 0.03 mm iodine-dyed filter is the secret within our optically pure lenses, providing crystal-clear vision— with no ‘noisy light’, no discoloration, and nodistortion— a truly ‘eye-friendly’ experience.

6,000 TECHNICAL INNOVATIONS AND COUNTING.
With this many pieces of knowledge, we can make something new every three days on average throughout the year. Our attitude drives this experimental approach and it is what leads our constant innovation and quest for superior lens quality and performance. Our lens materials were each invented with optical purity in mind and we haven’t stopped.

THE JAPANESE PHILOSOPHY OF “MONOZUKURI” IS WHAT WE PRACTICE IN OUR MANUFACTURING.

COMMITTED TO CRAFTSMANSHIP.
We have always only manufactured one thing: eyeglass lenses. And we have always only manufactured one way: with careful attention to every lens we make.
