Lens materials

  • Plastic: Plastic is one of the most common lens materials due to its durability and lightweight material.
  • Polycarbonate: These lenses are shatter-proof, making them ideal for children and active adults. Polycarbonate lenses are ideal for strong prescriptions due to their thin profile.
  • High Index: High index lenses are powerful lenses ideal for strong prescriptions. They are designed to be thinner and lighter than regular lenses.
