Welcome to our Lens Enhancements section, where you will find demonstrations that showcase some of the various specialized addons that can be applied to spectacle lenses.
Anti-Reflex
Anti-reflective coatings can reduce the unsightly reflections from the front surface of the lenses, as well as minimise the irritating reflections experienced by the wearer and make spectacle lens wear clearer and more comfortable
Lens Thickness
The thickness of a spectacle lens is affected by the lens materials. Hi-Index lenses are useful in reducing the thickness of lenses with a high prescription, thus allowing the wearer to enjoy slimmer and more fashionable looking eyewear.
Lens Tint
Lens Tints are often considered to be just a fashion statement or perhaps purely for wearing as sunglasses to reduce glare. There are, however, many functional aspects of tints such as to increase contrast for sporting use.
Photochromic Lenses
Lenses that darken when exposed to ultraviolet (UV) radiation, such as outdoor sunlight. This essentially turns simple spectacles into sunglasses. When the lenses are no longer exposed to UV the lenses will turn clear again.
Polarised Lenses
Polarised Lenses have been specially treated to reduce the glare from certain reflected surfaces. The person looking through the lens can still see clearly, but the polarisation reduces the brightness and glare of light.
