Bono, who was diagnosed with glaucoma 20 years ago, is partnering with the brand on an initiative called "Buy Vision, Give Sight," intended to improve access to eyecare in under-resourced communities around the world.

As part of the partnership, Revo is to donate $10 from the sale of every pair of Revo sunglasses to the initiative, up to a total of $10 million.

The singer has reportedly been exclusively wearing Revo sunglasses on U2's Innocence + Experience tour, and his capsule collection will include five styles and lenses in various colors. It will be available at Revo.com, Sunglass Hut and other specialty, optical and sporting goods stores around the world.
