Plastic lenses, sometimes referred to as CR-39 is a lighter in weight alternative to glass. Also more impact resistant than glass, however with much lower scratch resistance properties.

Single vision lenses are the most common lens type for those under the age of 40. This lens type corrects one field of vision, distance or near.

The Bifocal FT28 features two fields of vision, distance and near. The bifocal portion of the lens is a traditional lined half-moon shape.

High Index 1.74 index lenses are the ultimate in thickness reducing resin lenses. In some cases up to a 40% thickness reduction over standard lenses. Anti-reflective coating is included. 1.74 is the best choice for a cosmetically appealing thin lens. UVA and UVB protection is inherent within the lens.

Polycarbonate (poly) is known for its high impact resistance properties. Slightly lighter in weight than CR-39, poly is also a thinner material than plastic, glass or Trivex®. Poly is a great candidate for rimless frames. When lens thickness is a concern, poly is recommended for prescriptions up to +/-4.00

The most current Free Form technology allows the user almost seamless transitioning from distance to intermediate to near. Each HD progressive is tailor-made for considering all measurements to create a custom corridor for each individual customer. UVA and UVB protection is inherent within the lens.

Trivex® has less chromatic aberration than poly providing slightly better optical clarity. Its lower index of 1.523 will make it slightly thicker than poly with the same RX. Trivex® is recommended for prescriptions up to +/-3.00.

Glass is the LEAST shatter resistant and heaviest material in today’s market. Glass WILL shatter when struck by certain objects. Know that there is a risk factor when wearing glass lenses. Nonetheless, it still has its place. Glass has the best scratch resistant properties along with excellent optical quality.
