Lens Treatments
Anti-Glare significantly reduces reflections on the lens surface, providing sharper and more comfortable vision. Premium anti-glare increases scratch resistance and durability on the lens surface.
Blue light anti-glare works to reduce digital eye strain from staring at LCD screens (phones, computers, TV screens, tablets) for prolonged periods of time. Digital eye strain can lead to dry eyes, headaches, sleeplessness, and other ocular health issues. Blue light anti-glare works to bounce back the light before it reaches your eyes.
More commonly known by the brand name "Transitions", photochromic lenses use UV light to darken the lens. They offer a cost effective and convenient way to protect your eyes from harmful UV rays and bright sunlight.
