People need glasses for a variety of vision issues. If your eye exam shows that your vision needs to be corrected, Dr. Atkinson and the experienced team will provide you with all the information you need to decide what kind of lenses and frames are best for you.
We call eyewear “glasses,” but heavy, breakable glass is no longer widely used. Modern lenses come in a variety of materials at varying prices, and you can add features like an anti-reflective coating or colored tint. Types of lenses available include:
Thin, lightweight lenses designed for higher prescriptions to reduce the “coke-bottle” distortion of standard lenses.
Durable plastic lenses that are UV resistant. Good for kids and active people and for sunglasses and certain eye conditions that need extra protection.
Bifocals, trifocals, and progressives make things more comfortable when you have separate prescriptions for daily vision, reading, and driving. Progressives have a smooth transition between each power, so your vision is uninterrupted by a hard line in your lens.
These automatically darken when exposed to sunlight for UV protection whenever you go outside.
The experienced team at Atkinson Family Eye Care will discuss lens options and answer your questions so you can make the choice that’s right for you.
