OUR LENSES
There's a lot more to glasses than just frames and we have many lens options to suit your needs.
Materials
"Some lenses outweigh the others."
Materials
★ PLASTIC (CR-39)
Plastic lenses are widely used and are recommended for weak prescriptions. They are basic lenses and can scratch easily without coating. They also do not provide UV protection, is not impact resistant and also heavier and thicker.
★★ POLYCARBONATE
Polycarbonate lenses are thinner and lighter than plastic. They are also 10 times more impact resistant than plastic – suitable for children and active wearers. UV coating comes standard with polycarbonate.
★★★ TRIVEX
Trivex has the UV blocking and shatter resistant properties of polycarbonate. However, Trivex lenses have much better optical clarity and are even lighter. In fact, Trivex is the lightest weight lens material available. They are easily tinted and preferred for rimless drill-mount frames.
★★★ HIGH INDEX 1.67 | 1.74
High index lenses are premium lenses used for strong prescriptions as they offer the thinnest and lightest lens possible. However, the lenses are dense and reflect more light which can be bothersome for the wearer especially at night and while using the computer. The glare is also noticeable to others looking at you. That said, an AR Coating is highly recommended.
Coating
"Give your lenses a coating. Your eyes will thank you."
Coating
★ BASIC
Sharpview® is a very basic level coating to reduce glare and we recommend to have this at bare minimum to improve optical quality of lenses.
★★ PREMIUM
Crizal Easy® is the entry-level into the premium coatings from Essilor. It make lenses easier to clean and combat eye strain by reducing glare from screens. It also protects your eyes from the harmful UV rays in outdoor light. It also has built-in scratch and smudge resistance.
★★★ ULTRA
Crizal Alizé® lenses use a patented HSD Process™ (High Surface Density) for enhanced smudge protection while increasing the density of the hydrophobic molecules on the surface.
Crizal Rock® features High-Resistance Technology™, a combination of specific oxides that make the lenses 3X more scratch-resistant than your basic coating.
★★★★ ULTIMATE
Crizal Sapphire® lenses come with Multi-Angular Technology™ and feature best-in-class glare/reflection reduction from every angle, providing better aesthetics, enhanced UV protection, and safest nighttime driving.
Crizal Prevencia® UV lens is superior at filtering out blue-violet light from screens, smartphones, and tablets to reduce potential harmful effects on the eyes.
Multifocal
"What's better than 2 lenses in 1?
How about 3 lenses in 1."
Multifocal
BIFOCALS
No more switching between your distance and reading glasses. With bifocals you can get both in one lens. Bifocals are noticeable because of a visible line but they also have larger viewing areas and contain less distortion on the peripheral edges.
Multifocal
PROGRESSIVE
With Progressive lenses, no one will ever know that you're wearing multifocals. That's because the lenses are blended into each other with a progression from distance, to mid, to near. Keep in mind there is some peripheral distortion and it may take up to 2-3 weeks to adjust.
★ STANDARD
Natural Digital® is a standard digital progressive lens with the basic necessities.
★★ PREMIUM
Varilux Comfort 2 DRx® is our entry into the premium Varilux Series. These lenses give a greater reading area with a wider range of gaze directions. This results in fewer posture changes for a more comfortable fit.
★★★ ULTRA
Varilux Comfort Max® is an upgrade that uses Flex Optim™ Technology which is uniquely created for patients' prescriptions and can increase the vision zone up 46%.
★★★ ★ ULTIMATE
Varilux Physio W3® is a top-tier progressive that offers patients exceptionally smooth transitions from distance to near by using SynchroEyes Technology which calculates the lenses as a matched pair, helping the eyes work better together. The W.A.V.E. 2 Technology removes distortions and blurriness and superior sharp vision even in dim lighting.
Photochromic
"Glasses say hello to Sunglasses."
