• Our standard high-clarity lenses include no-glare, scratch-resistant coatings with 100% UV protection. Suitable for most glasses wearers but not recommended for semi-rimless and rimless frame styles. If you play sports or are buying for a child, we recommend upgrading to our polycarbonate lenses for high-impact resistance.
• Polycarbonate: Recommended for high-impact protection, playing sports or for children. Our high quality polycarbonate lenses include no-glare and scratch-resistant treatments, plus UV protection.
• Ultra Lightweight High Index: Recommended for high prescriptions, which are typically outside the range of -3.00 to +2.00. High index lenses ensure you get the thinnest lens with high tensile strength for maximum durability. These also include no-glare and scratch-resistant treatments, plus UV protection.
