Glasses correct vision problems using lenses held in frames. Lenses vary in type and material, addressing issues like nearsightedness. Coatings improve performance, and prescriptions are determined by our optometrist or optician.
What Is The Process For Getting A New Pair Of Glasses?
Overall, the process of getting a pair of glasses may require several days to complete, depending on the complexity of your prescription and the availability of your chosen lenses and frames.
What Are Different Type Of Prescription Lenses?
The prescription lenses fitted into your eyeglasses are determined by your specific vision requirements. Our optometrists and opticians will conduct an eye examination to establish the precise lens type and strength suitable for you. Here are a few of the different types of prescription lenses that our optometrist or optician might recommend for you.
Single vision lenses are the most common type of lenses prescribed. These lenses assist a patient in focusing on a single range, which could be close-up, mid-range, or distant. If your requirement is solely for reading or distance vision enhancement, this is the suitable lens choice for you.
If you have trouble seeing at multiple distances, progressive lenses may be best for you. These lenses enable clear sight at multiple distances, eliminating the necessity to remove or exchange your glasses. If continuous vision aid is required, this type of lens might be prescribed for your needs.
If you have a strong prescription, you may expect to have thick glasses. However, the introduction of high-index lenses is altering this norm. These lenses are well-suited for individuals with strong prescriptions, offering a slimmer and lighter alternative. This ensures clear vision without the need for oversized glasses that might overshadow your facial features.
