The range of spectacle lenses available today is vast and can sometimes
be confusing. There are many types of finishes and options available
and choosing the right lens is as critical as choosing the correct
frame.
The appearance of
a nice frame can be completely ruined by putting in an inappropriate
lens. Alternatively you could end up with a beautiful pair of glasses
but may they may not perform in the way you wish.
That’s why our Dispensing Staff spend
time with you discussing all the lens options. They’ll help
you understand the jargon and will give you specific advice tailored
for your prescription, lifestyle and frame choice.
