• Lenses

Before you decide what lens to install to your frame, the first choice you will make is single vision lens or progressive lens.This should be recommended by your optometrist, if you don't remember, please read your prescription, if there is ADD value, you should have progressive lens.

• Single Vision Lens

Basic lens 1.50

Basic lens are the standard, everyday lenses meant for people with low-to-moderate prescriptions. Those people who have +/- 0.25 to 2.00 prescription glasses should use basic lenses when ordering their eyeglasses.

Thin lens 1.56

Perhaps you need lighter lenses or have a prescription that runs +/- 2.00 to 4.00, thin lenses are around 30% lighter than basic lenses. They run great for heavier frames as well - putting less pressure on your nose and sinuses. You will be amazed at how light these lenses really are!

Super Thin Lens 1.60

If your Rx power is higher than +/-4.00, but less than 6.00, please select Super Thin Lens 1.60, which is thin and light enough, but cheaper than Ultra Thin Lens.

Ultra Thin lens 1.67

Untra thin lenses have an index of 1.67 making them the thinnest and lightest lenses available. They are 45% thinner than a standard plastic lens and are perfect for anyone with a prescription higher than +/- 5.00. They also work best with heavier, plastic eyeglass frames keeping the frame light on your nasal passages.

Polycarbonate lenses

Polycarbonate lenses are the best choice for anyone who plays sports or for children due to their near indestructibility. Polycarbonate lenses are also shatter resistant and extremely light weight. People with prescriptions between +/- 2.00 to 4.00 will have the best luck with polycarbonate lenses.

Trivex Lens

The Trivex lens has impact resistant properties similar to polycarbonate. These lenses are light in weight, unbreakable and scratch-free. It was designed specifically for drill mount frames.

• Progressive Lens or No-line Bifocals

Progressive lenses, sometimes called "no-line bifocals", are a type of eyeglass lens used to provide visual correction to both near view and distance view. Wearer can see near, far and everything in between with one lens.

• Colour Tint and Transion (Or Photochromic)

Colour Tint

Colour tint is a popular choice on prescription lenses allowing you to see clearly in bright sunlight.?It's of great help in summer days and for those who spend long time outdoors.

Photochromic

Transitional or also known as photochromic lenses become dark only when they are exposed to sun light. These features make photochromic lenses a great convenience, because they reduce your need to wear prescription sunglasses in most outdoor conditions.

• Coatings

Anti-Scratch

Anti-scratch coating is great for resisting scratches - but it does not prevent ALL scratches. The coating is applied with a silicone-based solvent and involves dipping the lens on both sides into the solvent. It leaves no color or tint behind and will not obstruct your vision in any way. Anti-scratch coating is meant to prevent minor scratches to the surface of the lens and works great in kid's glasses.

Anti-Glare or Anti-Reflective Coating

If you want to reduce the glare coming from your computer or from any surface while driving, this is the best coating for you. Anti-glare improves the efficiency of the eyeglasses since less light is lost through reduction of the glare. This is the best coating for people who drive at night as well as those who use a computer on a regular basis. The decrease of glare provides the wearer with the clearest line of vision possible.

UV Protection

Regardless of how much sun you think you take in, your eyes become more damaged every time they see sun light. Ultraviolet protection provides the best coverage for your eyes. Any type of overexposure to UV light can cause cataracts, retinal damage, as well as many other eye problems. The coating is applied to both sides of the lens but is not needed on polycarbonate lenses - as they absorb UV light naturally on their own. UV coating also does not change the color of the lens nor does it create problems with your vision.
