Many people are concerned with how their glasses look, but did you know that making thinner and lighter can even make them work better? Spectacle lenses have inherent distortions that can be reduced with the optimal 1 lenses. There are three categories which can be adjusted to ensure the thinnest and lightest I I lenses for each set of glasses. First, the 1 prescription (or power) in the lenses, second, u ic siit arm snape 01 me irame cnose, ana lastly, the materialdesign of the lenses themselves. It is initiative that the higher vour prescription, the thicker lenses will be. Lenses for nearsightedness will be relatively thicker on the edges, while farsighted lenses will be relatively thicker in the center. It is not helpful to change the power in your lenses to make them thinner, because your vision would also be affected. The spectacle frame should be chosen to fit the shape of your face, but keep in mind that the smaller and rounder it is. the thinner and lighter the outcome will be. Lastly, the curve on the front and back of the lenses can be arranged so the weight and thickness can be minimized. Then, the lens material itself can be chosen that has a greater ability to bend incoming light. This ability to bend light is referred to as the index of the material, the higher the index of the material, the thinner and lighter the lenses can be. If you have consigned that your glasses will always have to be thick and heavy, it is time to come on in and see what has changed. With today's technology, many people who had always said their glasses were: "coke bottle bottoms," are enjoying the benefits of light comfortable spectacles. Come on in and ask about glasses today!
