We harness the power of technologies like the Essilor Visioffice to dispense lenses uniquely suited to your needs and lifestyle.
By combining our 1-on-1 approach with these modern tools, we can help you experience the world with clarity and confidence.
Specialty Lenses & Coatings
Whether you need help managing eye strain, reducing glare, or desire a seamless transition between your near and distance vision, we’ve got you covered.
We tailor each lens to not only support your vision but also provide protection and durability. And if that wasn’t enough, each purchase is protected by our 1-year manufacturer’s warranty so you can enjoy your new glasses with confidence.
Crizal Anti-Reflective Coating
Crizal anti-reflective (AR) coatings help reduce glare, reflections, and smudges, enhancing vision clarity and reducing eye strain, especially in low-light conditions.
We offer a 2-year unlimited warranty on Crizal AR lenses.
Essilor Varilux
Designed for presbyopia, Essilor Varilux progressive lenses make it easier to transition between near, intermediate, and distance vision without the lines of traditional bifocals.
Trivex
Trivex lenses are lightweight, impact-resistant, and offer clearer vision than standard polycarbonate lenses, making them a great choice for safety, sports eyewear, and children’s glasses.
Blue Light Filters
Blue light filters help mitigate eye strain by blocking or absorbing blue light from digital screens. These lenses are great for those who work on computers or other digital devices throughout the day.
Transitions & Polarization
Transition lenses automatically adjust from clear to dark in sunlight, providing comfort, UV protection, and reduced glare.
The latest Transitions® GEN S™ lenses mark a significant advancement in photochromic technology. They offer fast responsiveness, a variety of colors for personalization, and an advanced light management system to enhance visual performance.
Polarized lenses are designed to reduce glare from reflective surfaces like water, snow, and roads, making them a popular choice for outdoor activities and driving. They enhance visual clarity and contrast, reduce eye strain, and provide UV protection, allowing for a more comfortable viewing experience.
