Lens
Options
Your options are unlimited at Sea View
Optometric Center. Our staff will help
you choose from a variety of lenses
that will best suit your lifestyle and
visual needs. We are continually updated
on all the latest in technology so that
we can provide the finest options to
our clients.
- Glass
- The first lens material available,
it is also the heaviest. Glass is not
used frequently now do to its weight
and inferior safety protection.
- Plastic
- Half the weight of glass and can
be tinted to almost any color and density.
Promotes eye safety, as plastic is more
impact resistant than glass. It is also
available in High Index which is thinner
and lighter and a good choice for higher
prescriptions.
- Polycarbonate
- The most impact resistant material
available. A good choice for children,
active patients and people with higher
prescriptions. Usually the lightest,
most comfortable lenses, they absorb
all harmful UV light and can be made
ultra thin because of their unique strength.
These lenses always include a scratch
protection coating and can be tinted
to any color and density.
- Photochromatic
Lenses - Available in both glass
and lightweight plastic (i.e. Transitions)
these photosensitive lenses darken as
you go from indoor to outdoor.
- Progressive
Addition Lenses - Often called "no-line"
or "blended" bifocals, they
provide continuous clear vision at all
distances. These lenses are a great
alternative to the older bifocal and
trifocal "lined" lenses.
- Polarized
- Simply the very best type of sun
lens for anyone involved in water activities,
as well as daytime driving. These lenses
eliminate glare and brightness while
protecting the eye from harmful UV light.
- Occupational
Lenses - There are a variety of
lenses that are "task specific" depending
on your visual needs and profession.
Once the doctor is aware of your situation,
he is able to recommend the best lens
for you.
Optional
Lens Treatments
- Scratch
Protection Coating - Lightweight
plastic lenses can be more easily scratched
that glass lenses. This special coating
has been designed to make lenses more
resistant to scratching.
- UV
Protection - A special invisible
filter for plastic lenses than protects
the eyes from harmful UV light.
- Anti/Reflection
Coating - Particularly effective
for reducing eye fatigue for computer
operators and anyone driving at night.
AR coated lenses enhance vision by removing
all distracting reflections and glare.
Cosmetically this coating makes your
eyeglass lenses look invisible, allowing
others to see your eyes without reflections
- Tint
- Available in a wide array of colors
and shades. They can be added to reduce
brightness or as a fashion accessory.
Tints can be a solid color, gradient
color fading to clear, or multiple colors
fading into each other (i.e. multi-gradient).
- Mirror
Coating - Can be added to sunglass
lenses to significantly cut down on
brightness and prevent others from seeing
your eyes, or where you are looking.
- Edge
Polish - A high gloss polish of
the edges of eyeglass lenses to give
them a rich finished look.
