Driving glasses? Reading glasses? Everything in between glasses?

We have a lens for that.

lens material

Better materials lead to stronger, lighter, and thinner lenses.

lens enhancements

Glare from night driving? Tired eyes from too much screen time? Transitions that work in the car? 

Single Vision lenses have a single power throughout the entire lens. They are perfect for wearers who are nearsighted or farsighted, but not for those who are both.

Single vision

 

multifocal

Multifocal lenses contain multiple powers (for near and far) throughout the same lens. They include bifocals, trifocals, occupational lenses, and progressive (no-line) lenses.

PROGRESSIVE/NO-LINE

occupational

Occupational lenses have correction for computer in the top and up-close reading in the bottom. These are not meant for full-time wear as they are designed for an office setting.

Lens ENHANCEMENTS

Anti-Glare

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

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. 

Digital social media
Photochromic

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.
