Abeye is the start-up behind the invention of Lexilens glasses that make reading easier for children with dyslexia. These are electronic glasses with active, tinted lenses that filter out mirror images that cause reading difficulties. The lenses are activated at the push of a button that activates the electronic system housed in the temples.

& Dyeing
Once printed in 3D, the frames are sandblasted and undergo a post-treatment: part of the frame is smoothed, via a physico-chemical process, on the PostPro®3D. The other components of the frame are tribofinished, then tinted in specific baths.
