Global Photochromic Lenses Market Analysis, Trends and Forecast by 2017 – 2025

Aug 11, 2017

The photochromic lenses when exposed to sunlight change their color and darken automatically. The lenses function as a normal spectacle when they are not exposed to the sunlight (indoors), and they return to their clear state. These lenses protect the eyes by blocking the excess ultraviolet rays and ultimately improve the ocular health of people when exposed to sunlight. The lenses shield the eyes 100% of the sun's harmful UVB and UVA rays. This factor increases the demand for photochromic lenses. Both plastic and glass are used to make photochromic lenses. Organic photochromic molecules are used to make plastic photochromic lenses; and microcrystalline silver halide molecules are embedded in glass substrate to make glass photochromic lenses.

What's holding back innovation among Korean startups?

Korea’s largest fashion shopping platform Musinsa is currently under investigation by the Seoul Regional Tax Office over CEO Cho Man-ho’s alleged appropriation of corporate funds for his real estate investment spinoff firm, Lapel. The investigation, which began last month, is being led by Investigation Bureau 4. Unlike other offices that primarily handle regular tax audits, Bureau 4 is known for conducting special investigations that can begin without prior notice and, in serious cases, develop into tax offense investigations, potentially exposing the targets to criminal complaints and significant business risks. The Bureau 4 investigation began while the Fair Trade Commission (FTC) was still investigating Musinsa in a separate case, which concluded earlier this month.
