Varifocal, multifocal, and progressive lenses all refer to the same type of lens designed to correct vision at multiple distances. These lenses provide a seamless transition from distance to intermediate to near vision without visible lines, making them a popular choice for those who need help seeing clearly at various ranges. Unlike bifocal or trifocal lenses, which have distinct sections, varifocal or progressive lenses allow for a smooth, gradual change in focus, offering a more natural visual experience.

Yes, as experts in all aspects of myopia management we regularly dispense myopia management lens designs.

Myopia management lenses are specially designed lenses that help slow the progression of myopia (short-sightedness) in children and young adults. These lenses work by altering how light focuses on the peripheral retina and reduces the excessive eye growth that is associated with progressing myopia.

Enhanced reading glasses are lenses designed to provide clear vision at both close-up and intermediate distances, such as for computer work or tasks around a room. Unlike traditional reading glasses, which focus only on nearby objects, enhanced reading lenses (also called occupational, office, or room lenses) offer a broader range of focus. This makes them ideal for those who need sharp vision at multiple distances, reducing eye strain and enhancing comfort for daily activities like reading, computer use, or office interactions.

Distance Plus lenses, also known as antifatigue or boost lenses, are designed to reduce eye strain for those who spend a lot of time on close tasks, like reading or screen work. These lenses provide a slight increase in positive power at the lower portion, easing near tasks without impacting distance vision. Ideal for those who don’t need full reading glasses but experience eye fatigue, Distance Plus lenses offer a gentle boost to help the eyes relax and stay comfortable throughout the day.

Yes. For the those eligible the NHS provide vouchers towards the cost of eyewear. These vouchers can be used towards the cost of your glasses. We offer a range of glasses and lenses that are entirely covered by the voucher value.

Yes, we do provide blue control lenses, which are designed to reduce the amount of blue light reaching the eyes, often from screens and artificial lighting. However, it’s important to note that, according to current research, there is insufficient evidence to suggest that blue control lenses provide enhanced eye health or prevent eye strain in a clinically significant way. Despite this, some people report feeling more comfortable with blue control lenses and, after trying them, choose to include them in future orders for added visual comfort.
