fitting
Vision is important to our daily tasks and glasses measurements can make or break your visual comfort. If the prescription isn't centered on the pupil, bothersome problems called aberrations or prism may be induced. This can cause excess strain on eye muscles, asthenopia, and distorted vision. Because none of us are perfectly symmetrical, it is critical to have optical staff obtain measurements of your frame once it is fit to your face. This way, the lab will be able to create the right lenses for your eyes.
We use a variety of methods to ensure proper frame and lens fitting, depending on each individual. We use M'Eye Fit Mirror technology utilizing Essilor's patented 3D measurement protocol to provide precise and customized measurements.
customize lenses
We partner with Hoya, Empire, and VSP labs in California to create your digital lenses. Digital lenses are the new standard to optimize all day visual comfort. They are meticulously shaped to provide a customized visual experience in the digital world we face daily.
Because our eyes focus differently depending on the distance at which we are viewing, different types of lenses may be prescribed. There are many styles and brands of each lens type, so it is important to talk with your frame stylist about your visual tasks you face daily, so they can help you select the right option.
Single
Vision
One prescription throughout the entire lens for distance, intermediate, or near viewing. Sometimes prescribed for all distances.
Bifocal
Trifocal
Visible line splits these lenses into two viewing areas, usually one large one for distance and one for near. A trifocal has three distances.

Progressive lenses have a gradual, invisible transition from distance to near viewing as your eye moves down towards the bottom of the lens.
