Why should I invest in High Quality Lenses for my eyeglasses?
Ultra Violet rays are one of the major reasons behind problems associated with vision. Branded lenses usually come along with a superior protection against the UV rays and also offer protection against the Blue Light from the digital devices. Normal to poorer quality lenses, in contrast, only state to have it but in a long run, deteriorates your vision.It can in turn result in increasing your numbers on glasses.
Sometimes, low quality lenses don’t offer comfort in vision from all angles. Lenses of superlative quality go through a great impact resistance test. This is because there is a huge risk of crushing and harshly harmful to eyes in case of an unintentional influence or accidents. This could be a serious note to consider as children wear glasses too.
Investing in higher quality eye glasses is one of the most important & key factors of eye care.
Which material of eyeglass lenses should I go for?
Here’s are the various materials that lens manufacturers use to produce lenses for eyeglasses listed below along with their pros & cons.
Plastic lenses
Standard plastic is a thick material made of a plastic polymer called CR-39,that is not shatterproof or impact resistant. Standard plastic is an older technology and is usually the cheapest material available for eyeglass lenses.
Because of its good optical qualities and economic pricing,CR-39 plastic still remains as one of the popular materials for eyeglass lenses. Other lenses in 1.56 index usually have lower clarity.
Polycarbonate lenses
Originally developed for helmet visors for the Air Force, for “bulletproof glass” for banks and other safety applications, Polycarbonate lenses are lighter and sturdier than plastic ones. These impact-resistant lenses are a great choice if you have a very active work life where your eyeglasses could easily get damaged, play sports or have kids who are tough on their specs. They also come with a built-in UV protection. Enough to say that it’s the preferred material for children’s eyewear, safety glasses and sports eyewear.
with the lowest abbe value, they are least clear lenses to choose.
Trivex Lenses
This lightweight eyeglass lens material with similar properties like the polycarbonate is called Trivex which was introduced for eyewear in 2001.They’re lighter, thin, and very much impact-resistant. They also correct vision better for some people.
High-index plastic lenses
In response to the demand for thinner, lighter eyeglasses, high-index plastic lenses were introduced. These lenses are better suited for higher power than CR-39 plastic lenses as they have a higher index of refraction and hence are thinner for same power.
