Polarized Lenses

Is Glare from the Sun driving you crazy? Regular sunglasses merely darken what you see. Polarized lenses are designed to eliminate glare. And for the best vision, add a “Glare-Free” treatment to the back surface. See the difference with Polarized Lenses.

Hi-Index Lenses

Wearing eyeglasses can be an uncomfortable experience for those patients who have strong prescriptions. Standard eyeglass lenses usually had to be very thick, and very heavy, to adequately correct their wearer’s vision. Today, high index lenses offer a thinner, lighter alternative to standard lenses.

Lenses made from high index materials deliver the same vision correction as their bulkier counterparts, and their lighter weight makes wearing them for extended periods of time much more comfortable. The thinner profile and lighter weight of high index lenses open the doorway to frame options previously unavailable to those with strong prescriptions. Wearers of high index lenses are able to select from countless frame styles and eyewear fashions available. Anti-reflective options can enhance the experience of wearing high index lenses, by eliminating reflections which are more common in high-index materials. For those with strong prescriptions, high index lenses provide exceptional vision correction, greater comfort, and a more flattering appearance.

Computer Lenses

Millions of people spend long hours working at their computers, and if you are one of them, your computer monitor could be doing real harm to your eyes. Sore and tired eyes, headaches and blurred vision, even neck and back pain from straining to see your monitor, are all symptoms of Computer Vision Syndrome, or CVS. CVS can affect anyone who works on a computer.

While maintaining good posture is an important part of the solution, a prescription for customized computer lenses can significantly reduce many of the symptoms that you may be experiencing. Customized computer lenses are different from regular eyeglass lenses. Regular eyeglass lenses may be good for reading, or driving, but they are not always suitable for computer work. Computer lenses are uniquely designed to make it easier to focus at the distance of your computer monitor, and reduce the glare caused by the lighting in your working environment. These lenses can also be given special tints, and lens coatings, that provide sharper vision, and better protection for your eyes.

Computer glasses are not intended to replace your regular eyeglasses. They are recommended as a second pair of glasses, because they are customized to provide enhanced vision specifically for the workplace environment.

Glare Free Lenses

Choosing the right pair of glasses is about more than just selecting the right frames. Today’s advanced lens materials can provide a stronger prescription in a thinner, lighter lens. The drawback is that these materials produce more reflection and glare. If you want the best vision possible, one option to consider is Glare-Free lenses. This lens treatment enhances the appearance and performance of your eyeglass lenses by eliminating reflections from the front and back surface.

Glare-Free lenses are practically invisible, so people focus on your eyes, and not the distracting reflections from your eyeglasses. Today’s modern Glare-Free lenses provide sharper vision and higher contrast, especially in low light environments. For example, when driving at night, glare from headlights can make it difficult to see hazards on the road. Glare-Free lenses reduce the amount of glare from on-coming traffic, allowing you to see more clearly.

People who spend time on the computer can also benefit from Glare-Free lenses. Studies have shown that glare from computer monitors can cause eye strain and fatigue. Glare-Free lenses provide a much more comfortable experience, by eliminating glare from the computer screen. It’s also worth considering a Glare-Free lens treatment when purchasing sunglasses. This lens treatment will eliminate the bounce-back reflections that occur when you are facing away from the sun.

Progressive Lenses (PAL)

As your vision changes with time, single vision lenses, or lined multifocal lenses, may no longer offer you the best vision correction possible. Progressive lenses correct vision in a way that closely resembles natural eyesight. These lenses offer clearer vision at all distances, close up, intermediate, and far away.

Those who have considered progressive lenses in the past, may be pleased to learn that improvements in technology – such as wider fields of vision – have made progressive lenses easier to adapt to than ever before. The transitions between focal zones are seamless, allowing one to shift focus from far away, to intermediate, to close up distances, with ease. There are no visible lines between the zones either, so no one can tell that you need the additional help to see up close. For many lens wearers, progressive lenses are a better alternative, offering outstanding clarity and comfort to see at all distances. Now is the perfect time to take a good look, at progressive lenses.

Digital Lenses

Contrary to the name, Digital Lenses are actually not a type of lens but instead an advanced new process for creating lenses. The process for creating traditional lenses is limited, which means the lenses cannot be customized for you. Digital Lenses are created differently.

First, advanced computer technology is used to create a three dimensional map of the imperfections in your vision. This map is called an Eye Print, and is unique to every individual. Your personal Eye Print will be entered into a computer, which generates a custom lens which precisely matches your vision needs. With traditional processes, only vision problems such as nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism are corrected. These corrections may address broad issues with vision, but do not correct issues unique to each person. The lack of customization results in distortion for the majority of people. This distortion may take many forms, from impared night vision to fuzziness and distortion when looking out of different angles or over different distances.

A personalized measurement with Digital Lenses will reduce distortion, sharpen vision and provide unmatched comfort. With digital lenses, you’ll experience sharper vision at all distances and in all light conditions. You’ll even have a personalized near vision zone, allowing you to see more vivid colors and detail, a wider field of vision, and sharper vision across the whole lens. Including digital lenses with an accurate prescription, proper lenses and framing position, precision lens crafting, and a great lens manufacturer ensures you’ll have optimum individual vision results.
