Options When Choosing Glasses
We offer the following products when choosing glasses and will recommend the most suitable for your lifestyle, visual requirements and budget:
- Thinner and lighter lenses – benefit many prescriptions resulting in increased comfort.
- Anti-reflection coatings – can reduce glare from oncoming headlights and computer screens, and make spectacle lenses more transparent improving appearance.
- Scratch resistant coating – increases durability of your glasses.
- Photochromic lenses – light sensitive ‘Transitions’ lenses darken in the sun, providing full UV protections. Available in a choice of colours, they are a convenient solution to most prescriptions.
- Polarised lenses – eliminate glare by offering full UV protection and are suitable for general wear as well as water/snow sports. Available in single vision, bifocal and varifocal.
