Sunglasses and Prescription Sunglasses

Sunglasses aren’t just a fashion statement, they’re also crucial for protecting your eyes from harmful UV rays. Even without vision correction, finding the right sunglasses can benefit your visual comfort and performance for various activities.

For those who don’t wear glasses or contacts, non-prescription sunglasses are available in a variety of styles and functions to suit your needs. If you do require vision correction, prescription sunglasses can offer clear, comfortable vision and reduce glare that causes eye strain while you’re outside or driving.

Children also need sun protection for their eyes, especially since they spend a lot of time outside. We offer sunglasses designed specifically for kids that provide adequate protection for their delicate eyes.

Prescription sunglasses offer the same vision correction as your regular glasses, but with added benefits for sunny days at the beach or during outdoor activities. Protecting your eyes while enjoying the sun has never been easier!

Lens Treatments

Lens treatments are add-ons to lenses that provide various benefits. They can be added during the manufacturing process or applied afterwards. Common lens treatments include UV protection, which blocks harmful UV rays that can cause eye damage.

Scratch-resistant treatments make lenses more durable and prevent scratches that can impair vision. Anti-reflective treatments reduce glare, making the lenses nearly invisible and more comfortable to wear. These treatments can be added separately or combined into a single lens product for convenience and maximum benefit.

It's important to consider adding these treatments to your lenses to protect your eyes, enhance visual performance, and extend the lifespan of your lenses. At our practice, our vision experts can help you choose the best lens treatments.

Transitions® Lenses

Transitions® lenses are the ideal solution for protecting your eyes from damaging UV radiation. These lenses are photochromic, meaning they adjust their darkness depending on the level of UV radiation present. They start out clear but quickly darken when exposed to sunlight, providing as much protection as sunglasses. They are suitable for indoor and outdoor use, making them perfect for daily wear.

Transition XTRActive lenses are ideal for those who spend a lot of time outdoors, providing moderate tint behind the windshield and a darker shade outside. Transitions SOLFX sun lenses are specifically made for outdoor activities, with a lens color and shade that can adjust to outdoor lighting. Whether you are working, reading, or playing, Transitions lenses are designed to ease your daily life and keep your eyes healthy.
