Sequinetic is nothing but a pair of specialized sunglasses designed to create white and bright daylight around you, when the atmosphere is actually dark and cold. All you need to do is to wear the sunglasses which are fitted with six strong LED lights and a powerful reflector that reflects the light around your eyes. The soft, beautiful and white daylight that spreads around you is in no way harmful for your eyes as the light is not directly hitting your eyes.

LED lights are free from ultraviolet rays and immediately help you improve your mood as well. The glasses can be worn throughout the day when you work. It also helps that Sequinetic can be used while you work on your computer and also while you read. The glasses are powered by two batteries of AAA size. You can also use rechargeable batteries for powering the glasses.

Sequinetic glasses do not need varying sizes to fit different facial shapes. They come in standard size which fits all facial sizes and hence, can be picked up straight from the shelf without worrying about fitting issues. The fact that the sunglasses are great for providing energy for the user, helps in facing the day head on with exhilaration. Wearing the glasses for about half an hour a day will give you enough energy without using any stimulants or carbohydrate diet to see through the dark winter months.

Sequinetic sunglasses are made with the highest quality ABS plastic and has a sophisticated red and grey color scheme that too helps in enhancing you mood. The nose piece that fixes the glass on to your nose is made in black Neoprene rubber. The reflector fixed above the glass comes in white.

Many of you who would like to use Sequinetic might have apprehensions about its comfort as the glasses surely look uncomfortable. But the company certifies that Sequinetic is very comfortable and the preliminary testing with prototype glasses have generated good reviews, certifying that they are extremely comfortable on your nose.

Going by the features and its amazing brightening properties, Sequinetic does not come with a hefty price tag. The glasses retail for $8000 which makes it available only for the higher segment of consumers. The LEDs are procured from Japan and are of the highest quality which too add to the cost of the product.

Sequinetic must be used carefully to avoid accidents. The team warns that it is not suitable for driving as the vision could be reduced depending on the surrounding light and put your life at risk. However, you may use it in any familiar surroundings where you can see and function adequately without accidents.
