WE CAN CUSTOMISE YOUR LENSES TO MATCH YOU AND YOUR LIFESTYLE
FINDING THE RIGHT LENSES FOR YOU
We make a big effort to buy Irish and use our quality Irish suppliers whenever possible. However, we also use the top suppliers from other countries when the need arises.
There is a mind-boggling array of lenses to choose from, but our experienced, knowledgeable dispensing staff will make sure you get the lenses most suited to your individual needs.
Here are just a couple of explanations of the terms you'll hear when talking about lenses:
-
Single Vision lenses:
These are the most common lenses and have a single power suitable for everyday use for the under 40s who require a prescription. They are also used by people who do not require a prescription for everyday use, but who find that they have reached the stage where they require glasses for reading or for anyone who needs glasses to make them more comfortable when using a computer and other screens.
-
Multifocal Lenses:
These are lenses that have more than one power and include bifocals, varifocals, trifocals and occupational lenses for computer use.
-
Thinner Lenses:
We have a large number of ways to reduce the thickness of your lenses. If you have a high prescription, our expert staff will first advise you on the best frame choices, and then on the lens choice. High index lenses, as well as getting lenses made to different specifications, will improve the cosmetic appearance and reduce the weight of your lenses.
PROTECT & ENHANCE YOUR LENSES
There are many coatings and finishes available that can protect your eyes and your lenses whilst providing you with the clearest vision possible. Our team will guide you through your range of options based on your visual needs and lifestyle.
-
Coatings:
Anti-scratch and anti-reflection are available in a range which include Blue Control to filter out the harmful effects of blue light emanating from computer and other screens.
-
Tints:
We offer a full range of tints including solid, graduated, Transitions (which darken and lighten according to the amount of light) and polarised, which are wonderful for driving and virtually eliminate glare. We include UV protection as standard on any sunnies.
