Prescription Eyeglasses

Comprehensive Guide to Eyewear: Lenses, Materials, and Frame Options for Optimal Vision and Protection

Understanding Lens Types for Every Vision Need

These lens types cater to various vision needs and are prescribed based on an individual's specific requirements for clear and comfortable vision at different distances.

Plano Lens

A plano lens is a lens with no prescription power. It is flat and does not correct vision. Plano lenses are often used for cosmetic purposes, like in non-prescription sunglasses or safety glasses.

Single Vision Lens

A single vision lens has a consistent prescription power across the entire lens surface. It is designed to correct vision for a specific distance, either for nearsightedness (myopia) or farsightedness (hyperopia)

Bifocal Lens

A bifocal lens is divided into two parts, addressing both distance and near vision. Prescribed for presbyopia, a condition hindering close focus, bifocals offer a practical solution

Trifocal Lens

Trifocal lenses, like bifocals, offer three prescription areas: top for distance, middle for intermediate (e.g., computer screens), and bottom for close-up vision. They're prescribed for individuals needing correction at various distances

Progressive Lens

Progressive lenses, or no-line bifocals, seamlessly progress prescription powers from top to bottom, eliminating visible lines for a natural, aesthetic vision correction. Segments address distance, intermediate, and near vision needs

Lens Material

Explore Our Range of High-Quality Lens Materials: Tailored to Your Vision and Lifestyle

Crafted from a resilient thermoplastic, these lenses boast exceptional impact resistance. They are significantly lighter and thinner than standard plastic lenses, making them an ideal choice for safety glasses and sports eyewear.
Advantages: Perfect for those with an active lifestyle, these lenses provide robust impact resistance, are lightweight, and ensure UV protection.

CR-39, or allyl diglycol carbonate (ADC), is a type of plastic lens material. It is one of the most common materials used for eyeglass lenses. CR-39 lenses are known for their optical clarity and are relatively lightweight.
Advantages: Ideal for everyday use, CR-39 lenses are lightweight, offer excellent optical clarity, and are cost-effective.

Mid-index lenses are a type of plastic lens that is thinner and lighter than CR-39 plastic lenses. The 1.55 mid-index refers to the refractive index of the lens material, influencing its thickness.
Advantages: They are an excellent option for those requiring a thinner lens without a high prescription, offering a lighter and more comfortable eyewear experience.

Trivex lenses are a lightweight and impact-resistant material similar to polycarbonate. They are known for their optical clarity and are often preferred for rimless and drill-mounted frame styles.
Advantages: These lenses are known for their lightweight build, resistance to impact, exceptional clarity, and UV protection, offering a comfortable and clear vision.

Traditional glass lenses were once common but have become less popular due to their weight and lack of impact resistance compared to newer materials. Glass lenses offer excellent optical clarity but are heavier and may break more easily.
Advantages: These lenses are a great choice for those who prioritize high optical clarity above other features.

Another mid-index lens, the 1.67 mid-index is even thinner than the 1.55 mid-index. These lenses are suitable for stronger prescriptions, providing a thinner and more aesthetically pleasing appearance.
Advantages: These lenses are ideal for those with stronger prescriptions who seek a thinner lens profile, ensuring both style and comfort.
