Look Look progressive prescription lenses are built with quality high-index (1.56) materials and include anti-reflective coatings. High-index lens materials are designed to be thinner and lighter than standard lenses, and that’s their main advantage. Here’s why they’re beneficial:
- Thinner lenses: High-index lenses are less bulky, even for strong prescriptions, so they look better in most frames.
- Lighter weight: Reduced thickness also means the lenses are lighter, making the glasses more comfortable to wear.
- Aesthetic Appeal: Because they are thinner, they don’t have that “coke bottle” look, which is a big plus if you wear high-prescription glasses. They look like regular single-vision glasses, without the lines found in bifocals. The anti-reflective coatings make the lenses look nearly invisible, so others can see your eyes clearly without the reflection. This is a big plus for aesthetics and is great for photos or video calls.
- Seamless Vision: They offer a smooth transition between different focal points (near, intermediate, and far) without visible lines.
- Convenience: One pair of glasses covers all your vision needs, eliminating the need for multiple pairs.
- Natural Vision: The gradual change in lens power provides a more natural visual experience without “image jump.”
- Improved Posture: You can see clearly at all distances without needing to adjust your head or posture.
- Reduced glare, especially from screens, headlights, and bright lights, which can make your vision clearer and more comfortable. This is especially helpful for driving at night or working long hours on a computer.
- Improved visual clarity and contrast, giving you sharper vision because more light passes through the lens instead of reflecting off of it.
Have you ever tried progressive lenses before? They do take some getting used to.
