Anti-reflective
coating: (also know as anti-glare)
In simple terms the coating is actually layers of filters on the
front and back surface of lenses that allow all of the light to
pass through the lens instead of bouncing back out as reflection.
They are durable, easy to clean, and resist surface static. The
most important feature is that the filter increases the amount of
light that passes through the lens so you see better, clearer and
sharper than before. Anti-reflective coatings make your lenses look
almost invisible.
Polarized lenses: Squint
no more! In simplest terms a polarized lens is a high tech sunglass
filter that eliminates glare and allows light to pass through the
lens in only one direction (like miniblinds). It also provides 100%
UV protection for your eyes. Without doubt, it’s the lens
of choice for driving, fishing, and skiing, golfing and all sunny
outdoor activities.
Transitions®:
These photo chromatic lenses automatically change from clear (indoors)
to dark (outdoors) in just a few seconds. They block 100% of UVA
and UVB radiation. These lenses offer comfort and convenience all
in one pair of glasses. They are available in single vision, progressives,
plastic, high index and polycarbonate materials.
Computer lenses:
These new technology lenses are designed for your eyes to relax
at the computer. They are designed to give you comfort and vision
for close and intermediate distances. While these lenses are primarily
designed for computer use, they work great for anyone requiring
clear intermediate and near vision, such as musicians, architects,
accountants, surgeons, and many others. They are available in plastic,
glass and polycarbonate, single vision as well as progressive lenses
too.
Progressive lenses: Distance,
intermediate and reading prescriptions in one pair of glasses for
all your vision needs. The technology behind these lenses has evolved
to precision so virtually anyone can now comfortably wear their
progressives all day with absolute natural ease.
Customized progressive lenses: These progressive lenses are the
first lenses to be designed specifically and uniquely for each individual
wearer. We will measure your head and eye measurements and Rx parameters
and design completely customized progressive lenses just for you.
Hi-Index Lenses:
These thin lenses come in wide range of choices – especially
for strong prescriptions but all are basically flatter front curves,
resulting in thinner lighter lenses. They offer superior optics
and can be easily used when rimless and thinner metal frames are
being worn.
Polycarbonate: They are the strongest of all the optical lenses,
these are recommended by the FDA for sports and safety and work
best with most rimless frame styles. Think about your lifestyle
needs and ask if these are missing from your wardrobe.
CR-39: The
lens material that replaced glass as the lens of choice years ago.
It is lightweight, impact resistant, and dyes or coats well.
WEAR-LITE®: We
are among the 1st wave of Opticians in the USA using a Swiss made
progressive lens that is fabricated
by using *ECO friendly manufacturing*. The optics are great, production
has 90% less throw off by-products than any other lens available
in the optical market and the lens is designed without thermal
heat, saving energy and water. We are thrilled to be a part of
Eco consciousness.
