Lenses
We can provide a wide selection of corrective lenses for all types of prescription – Hyperopia (long sighted), myopia (short sighted), astigmatism (irregular curvature of the eye), and presbyopia (where reading glasses are required).
To improve the cosmesis of the spectacles we will advise on lens types, materials and coatings. Lens types advised upon are single vision, bifocals and varifocals. Materials which are used for lenses are plastic, polycarbonate and glass. To make the lenses thinner we can increase the refractive index and make the lenses aspheric. The coatings that are available for plastic lenses are hard coated, antireflection coating and tints. Also available we can provide photochromatic lenses which can go darker in bright sunlight.
There are a number of suppliers of lenses which we regularly use which include Zeiss, Nikon, American Optical, Essilor – Varilux.
