Single Vision Reading Lenses
Designed for close-up and working distances. 4 Eyes Optical commonly describes reading lenses as being used for close-up work at roughly 30–60 cm.
Common Lens Types
The best choice depends on your prescription, how you use your glasses, your frame and your budget.
Single Vision Distance Lenses
Designed for clear distance vision and commonly used for everyday wear or prescription sunglasses.
Bifocal Lenses
Bifocals provide two fields of vision — distance and reading — with a visible segment in the lower part of the lens.
Multifocal / Progressive Lenses
Multifocal lenses provide distance, intermediate and reading vision without a visible segment line. Frame fit, fitting measurements and lens design all matter.
Lens Options & Coatings
Anti-Scratch / Hard Coat
4 Eyes Optical supplies a hard or anti-scratch coating as standard on many lens options.
Anti-Reflective / Anti-Glare
Designed to reduce reflections through the lenses and improve visual comfort, particularly under artificial lighting, computer use and night driving conditions.
Blue-Light / Blue-Blocker Options
A blue-light filtering coating option is available for customers who prefer it. We can explain the available products and whether they suit your needs.
Higher-Index / Thinner Lens Materials
Different lens materials can be used to reduce lens thickness. Whether this is worthwhile depends on your prescription, frame shape and lens design.
Sun & Light-Adaptive Options
Transitions Gen S
4 Eyes Optical currently offers Transitions Gen S options, with lenses that react to UV/light conditions and darken outdoors before returning toward clear indoors.
Transitions XTRActive Options
4 Eyes Optical also lists Transitions XTRActive and XTRActive Polarised options. Ask us which options are suitable for your prescription and frame.
Polarised Sunglass Lenses
Polarised lenses are designed to reduce reflected glare, making them a popular option for driving, water and bright outdoor environments.
Dye Tints & Mirror Coatings
Dye tint and mirror-coating options can be used for sunglass styling and light reduction, depending on the lens and prescription.
