Lenses
As we are independent we can choose any brand of lenses. We are very competetive in our prices. Single Vision lenses start at £40, bifocals from £60 and varifocals from £70.
Recent Innovations in Spectacle Lenses
- Several manufacturers offer an anti-reflection coating that is so smooth that it repels grease, water and static so that it is easier to keep clean in addition to being scratch resistant and cutting out most reflections.
- The latest transition lenses darken and fade more quickly than before.
- Polarised lenses eliminate the harsh reflected glare that can bounce of water, snow, glass and metal. As a result they add a new dimension when driving, sailing, skiing, angling, golfing and participating in many more outdoor activities. Vision obscured by glare is one of the leading causes of car accidents.
- Flash mirror on corrective lenses is an option that gives a transparent mirror coating that does not affect the original tint.
- Ever increasing refractive index available for spectacle lenses makes thin lenses possible for high prescriptions.
- A new generation of free form progressive lenses are designed specifically for each individual patient and prescription.
