EYEWEAR. JUST FOR YOU.

EYECARE THAT S AS INDIVIDUAL AS YOU. Thank you for entrusting our practice with your eyecare needs. We pride ourselves on maintaining the highest clinical standards and recommending quality eyewear solutions that are the best for you. We believe you and your eyes deserve nothing less.

Enjoy great vision We are passionate about helping you to see the world clearly, comfortably and at its best. Matching the right eyewear to your specific vision and lifestyle requirements is the key to great vision. Understanding the activities that you undertake daily or regularly is the starting point for our recommendations. Make an informed choice There are basic differences in eyewear which will impact not only on your vision and look, but also price. With so many options to choose from, selecting new eyewear can be a confusing task. We aim to outline these differences so you can feel confident about the eyewear solution we ve recommended just for you.

COMPARE APPLES WITH APPLES. When it comes to frames, you can see what you re getting for your investment. The same cannot be said for your lenses as their differences are not always apparent. And there are many. That s why it s important to compare like for like.

What to consider The cost of eyewear can vary dramatically depending on the complexity of the frame and lens production. Frame elements to consider include design, brand, material, embellishments, hinge quality and comfort features. Most of these aspects will be visible upon close inspection. Lenses are highly technical products that in many cases will require a greater investment than your frames. Lens quality, design, material and coatings will impact on visual performance, visual comfort, durability, aesthetic appeal and safety. Your lenses can be the difference between seeing well and seeing exceptionally well.

LENSES. MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE. Why do lenses vary in price when they all look the same? It comes down to which options are selected from the categories below. Lens index Dictates lens thickness and lightness. 1.50 index (or CR39) is the base option and the one advertised in most package deals. As you increase the index (eg. 1.56, 1.60 and 1.67) lenses become thinner, lighter and more aesthetically pleasing. Lens type Refers to the type of vision correction. Single vision lenses are the most common lens type. They correct either near or distance vision and are included in most packages. Multifocal lenses (or progressives) offer multiple distance correction, and cost more as they are more complex to produce and fit.

Lens design Basic lenses common to low-cost packages are typically spherical. They have steep curves that result in a thicker appearance. Aspheric lenses are a premium alternative, producing a flatter, thinner, more comfortable and appealing finish. Multifocal/Progressive design The ease of progression between near, intermediate and distance vision as well as the quality of peripheral vision is another lens consideration for multifocal/progressive wearers. The latest sophisticated designs will deliver more seamless and natural vision, less distortion, and provide greater flexibility in frame choice over standard options. Lens enhancements Lens options including Transitions, anti-reflective coatings and polarising technology will enhance your visual performance, safety and the look of your lenses. These are generally treated as package extras.
