Vision is possibly the most important of all the senses. In fact, 80% of the information we receive every day is visual!
So, while we often take our vision for granted, it does have a huge impact on the quality of our lives. Imagine what it would be like not to see all the colorful little details that make up your day—like the vivid details in a beautiful flower. 
Good vision is critical. Without it is difficult to do even basic tasks, like see road signs, drive, or read a map, newspapers, menus, or books.

Low Light Vision

Most people notice the need for improved low light vision while reading a menu in a restaurant or driving at night. Varilux utilizes W.A.V.E. Technology™ to deliver measurably improved contrast sensitivity in low light situations.

Distance Vision

Poor distance vision can affect your ability to see road signs clearly, or enjoy movies or sporting events. Varilux lenses minimize distortion and guarantee the ultimate in visual sharpness enhancing distance vision.

Intermediate Vision

Having poor intermediate vision can impact your ability to safely operate a motor vehicle because it can affect your ability to see the gauges in your car. Intermediate vision is also important for seeing buttons on your television remote and cell phone or when using a computer. Varilux lenses offer wider fields of vision to enhance intermediate vision.

Near Vision

Near vision is important because it is critical to activities such as reading the newspaper, sewing or even reading a prescription bottle. Varilux lenses allow wearers to access near vision more comfortably and with greater sharpness.

Transitions lenses: the most convenient way to enjoy better vision, indoors and out, today 
and tomorrow.
Does the glare of the sun cause you to squint and strain your eyes? Do your eyes sometimes get tired when you're outside? Do you sometimes have trouble seeing objects when the bright sun is shining?
Transitions lenses are clear indoors and at night but automatically adjust their level of tint to changing light conditions outdoors. They provide visual comfort and quality at any and every moment, helping you to see better today.
And just like sunblock protects your skin, Transitions lenses help preserve the health and wellness of your eyes for the future by blocking 100% of harmful UV rays, so you can see better tomorrow too.
Transitions lenses. Because you only have one pair of eyes.

Lens Options

Anti-Reflective Coating:

Recommended with every prescription. Anti-Reflective Coating decreasing reflection and even makes frames aesthetically look better. It helps produce less glare, which is particularly noticeable when driving at night or working in front of a computer monitor. The decreased glare means that wearers often find their eyes are less tired, particularly at the end of the day. Allowing more light to pass through the lens also increases contrast and therefore increases visual acuity. Choosing any of our AR Coatings will also provide you with a 2 year lens warranty. We suggest Shamir Glacier and Crizal AR Coatings as they are the best in the industry.

Premium AR Coating:

Premium Sharpview AR Coating comes with a 2-year lens warranty. Crizal Alize + AR Coating represents one of the best Anti-Reflective Coating available today. Reduces glare, repels water, resists scratches and smudges better than most other AR Coatings. Includes Scratch Resistant Coating, UV Protection. NOT for Sunglasses.

Crizal Avance AR Coating:

Represents one of the best Anti-Reflective Coating available today. Reduces glare, repels water, resists scratches and smudges better than most other AR Coatings. Includes Scratch Resistant Coating, UV Protection, 2-year lens warranty. NOT for Sunglasses.

Crizal Sapphire AR Coating:

Crizal Sapphire with Scotchgard AR Coating represents the best Anti-Reflective Coating available today. Delivers the sharpest vision of any no-glare lens on the market. Reduces the most glare, repels water, resists scratches and smudges better than any other AR Coating. Includes Scratch Resistant Coating, UV Protection, 2-year lens warranty. NOT for Sunglasses.

Crizal SunShield AR Coating:

Represents the best backside Anti-Reflective Coating for sunglasses available today. Delivers the sharpest vision of any no-glare lens on the market. Reduces the most glare, repels water, resists scratches and smudges better than any other AR Coating. Includes Scratch Resistant Coating, UV Protection with an E-SPF of 50+, 2-year lens warranty. Can ONLY be applied with the Polarized Lens Option.

Scratch Resistant Coating:

Scratch resistant coating is ten times less prone to scuffs and scratches than uncoated lenses. Prevent your new lenses from everyday dust and particles that can impair your sight over time.

UV Ultraviolet Protection:

UV Protection will shield your eyes from the sun's UVA and UVB rays that are damaging to the eyes.

Roll and Polish Lenses:

When you add prescription lenses to a rimless frame you can roll and polish the lenses so they look aesthetically better from the side profile. Also used by patients with a higher prescription in any frame time. This will reduce the look of the lens thickness.

Polarized Lenses:

Light reflected from surfaces such as a flat road or smooth water generally is horizontally polarized. This means that, instead of light being scattered in all directions in more usual ways, reflected light generally travels in a more horizontally oriented direction. This creates an annoying and sometimes dangerous intensity of light that we experience as glare. Polarized lenses contain a special filter that blocks this type of intense reflected light, reducing glare.

Transitions VII Lenses:

These are the most adaptive UV responsive lenses with optimal indoor clarity currently available in the industry. This new addition to the Transitions family of products features a ground breaking technology, CHROMEA7. CHROMEA7 Technology is a unique dye formulation that keeps more molecules activated to absorb more light, allowing for a better, more responsive lens in a variety of lightning conditions. Transitions VII is now 20% faster activation than Transitions VI. Grey tint is now 15% darker and brown tint is now 21% darker. The same great Transitions lens just got even better. Available in Grey, Brown or Green/Graphite (G-15) Lenses.

Transitions XTRActive Lenses:

All day Transitions XTRActive lenses adapt to help protect your eyes from fatigue and strain caused by UV light and bright glare outdoors, and even activate behind the windshield. Indoors they have a comfortable hint of 10% tint to shield your eyes from strain caused by harsh indoor light. Available only in grey tint.

Transitions Vantage Lenses:

Transitions Vantage Lenses provide even crisper, sharper vision outdoors, even in the brightest outdoor glare. Transitions Vantage are the only lenses in the industry with variable polarization that adjust to match outdoor levels. Available only in grey polarized tint.

Lens Tinting:

Solid or gradient tinting is available in black, grey, brown or any other single color tint. Please be aware that High Index lenses do not tint really dark. If you want a very dark sunglasses lens and your prescription requires a High Index lens, we recommend choosing the polarized lens option to achieve this.

Mirror Tinting:

Mirror tinting is a reflective optical coating on the outside of the lenses to make your lenses appear like a one-way mirror. Mirror coatings blocks additional sunlight and reduces harsh glare by 10-15% with a solid mirror and by 5-8% with a flash mirror. There is a wide variety of colors and gradient mirror.
