Our Featured Eyeglass Lens Brands
There are many eyeglass lens options available; however, not all lens technology is made equal. Our experienced team will help you select the right lens technology to match your prescription, lifestyle, and daily visual demands.
Varilux X: One Pair of Glasses for Everything
Best for people who need help seeing both far away and up close
Varilux X lenses are premium progressive lenses, which means they let you see far away, at arm’s length (like a computer), and up close (like reading), all in one pair of glasses.
Why patients love them:
- You don’t have to switch between different pairs of glasses
- Reading, phone use, and computer work feel more natural
- Less head tilting or searching for the “right spot” in the lens
- Vision feels smooth and clear at all distances
Good choice if you:
- Are experiencing age-related near vision loss, and having trouble reading small print
- Want one pair of glasses for everyday life
- Spend time on computers, phones, or tablets
Varilux X makes it easy to see everything clearly without changing glasses.
Eyezen Start: Everyday Glasses with Extra Comfort
Best for people who only need one prescription but use screens a lot
Eyezen Start lenses are single-vision lenses, meaning they correct one type of vision (distance or near), but they’re designed to be more comfortable for today’s screen-heavy lifestyles.
Why patients love them:
- Clear vision for everyday activities
- Less eye strain from phones, computers, and tablets
- More comfortable than basic lenses
- Helps protect your eyes from harmful light from screens
Good choice if you:
- Don’t need reading glasses yet
- Use digital screens often
- Want clearer, more comfortable everyday vision
Eyezen Start feels like regular lenses, just more comfortable.
Here are some of the most common eyeglass lens types:
- Transition lenses – These lenses are made of dynamic materials that automatically adjust to the level of surrounding light. They can take the place of prescription sunglasses and help block UV rays.
- UV coated lenses – UV coating can be applied to regular eyeglasses unless the lens is made with polycarbonate. UV coated lenses look like any other lens – the coating is transparent.
- Tinted sunglass lenses – If you are getting prescription sunglasses, you might want to get tinted eyeglasses instead. These look like sunglasses and protect the health of your eyes by keeping out UV rays, but technically they aren’t true sunglasses.
- Scratch-resistant coating – A transparent coating that helps protect glass lenses from those annoying scratches. Scratch-resistant coating is especially useful for children’s eyeglasses.
- Plastic lenses – Plastic lenses make the entire eyeglasses weigh significantly less than glass lens eyeglasses. If you are a person who dislikes feeling the weight of eyeglasses on your nose, this lightweight alternative might be right for you.
- Thinner lenses – The special polycarbonate lenses greatly reduce the thickness of the lenses so that the eyeglass profile is more attractive. Thinner lenses come in thin, extra-thin and thinnest available.
- Anti-glare lenses – Anti-glare lenses are dipped in a special material to make them less reflective than regular eyeglass lenses. This coating also improves the function of the eyeglasses because less light is lost and the wearer enjoys very clear vision.
