Maui Jim Launches MauiPassport™ 2.0 Prescription Sunglasses
Updated. Enhanced. Improved.
Ten years ago, Maui Jim sunglasses revolutionised the prescription sunglass industry with the introduction of MauiPassport™ lens technology, which offered the widest field of vision with unrivalled distortion-free edge-to-edge clarity.
MauiPassport™ 2.0, the brand’s second-generation prescription sunglass lens technology, builds on from the much-loved MauiPassport™ technology to deliver an improved view that offers enhanced distance and peripheral vision. Combined with Maui Jim’s world-renowned PolarizedPlus2® lens technology – which blocks 100% of UV sun rays and eliminates harmful glare while enhancing colour, definition and depth perception – MauiPassport™ 2.0 raises the bar and ushers in a new era in prescription sunglasses.
Revolutionary Upgrades
MauiPassport™ 2.0 is available in single and progressive lens options and delivers 66% wider distance vision than its predecessor, thanks to Maui Jim’s proprietary progression profile shape. This new-generation prescription lens technology, also features a reduced cylinder power which enables a 20% astigmatism reduction and better lateral image stability, so wearers experience a unique sensation of image stability while enjoying a panoramic distance visual field.
It’s not hard to see why no other lens portfolio in the world rivals the engineering, technology, sophistication and uniqueness of MauiPassport™ 2.0 prescription sunglasses
Crafted to Perfection
Maui Jim prescription sunglasses are crafted at the company’s precision robotic and fully automated optical laboratory in Peoria, Illinois, using exclusive digital lens design and cutting-edge direct surfacing technology.
MauiPassport™ 2.0 digital technology is six times more precise than conventional labs, enabling the Maui Jim to account for the unique aspects of each person’s prescription by adjusting the digital manufacturing to the precise measurements of each frame which results in a clear, edge-to-edge, distortion-free view.

Maui Jim MauiPassport™ 2.0 is available in three different lens material options including MauiBrilliant™, Maui Jim’s most advanced lens material that features optics nearly as clear as glass with just one-third of the weight; Maui Evolution® and Polycarbonate, both of which feature scratch and shatter resistance while offering high optical clarity. Maui Jim MauiPassport™ 2.0 is also available in four lens colours (Neutral Grey, Maui Rose®, HCL® Bronze, and Maui HT™ Green) including a variety of front lens treatments such as, a Bi-Gradient mirror, MauiGradient®, and three fashion mirror finishes, Blue Hawaii, MauiGreen and MauiSunrise (pink).
