Wraparound Frames
Wrapped frames are often used in a sports setting such as cycling. These frames feature lenses that appear curved and wrap around the face more than conventional glasses. This gives them a more secure, yet comfortable fit and more eye protection. Reglazing wrapped frames requires an additional charge. This surcharge accounts for the specialized materials and techniques needed to craft these frames, ensuring they meet the highest standards of durability and performance.
Use
Distance lenses are crafted for clear long-range vision. Ideal for those with a negative (-) sphere in their prescription, they sharpen far-off objects, making everyday activities like driving and watching movies more enjoyable.
Reading lenses are tailored for close-up vision, ideal for enhancing clarity during reading or detailed work. They offer a comfortable viewing experience, minimising eye fatigue and making it easier to focus on text and small details.
Intermediate lenses are crafted for mid-range vision, perfect for computer use or any activity that requires focusing at arm's length. These lenses provide clear, comfortable vision for tasks that are neither too close nor too distant, reducing eye strain in everyday work environments.
Bifocal lenses combine two prescriptions in one lens, offering clear vision for both near and far distances. They're ideal for those who need assistance with both reading and distance vision, seamlessly integrating two visual needs into a single, convenient solution.
Varifocal lenses blend gradually from your distance prescription through intermediate to your reading prescription as you look down through the lenses. You will need a set of values for distance and a "Near Add" value for reading on your prescription.

Lens Colour
Clear lenses only - no tints or transitions. Coatings can be selected later.
Sunglasses & Tinting. Select this option to turn your glasses into standard sunglasses. Alternatively, choose from our extensive range of Photochromics or Mirror Sunglasses.
Photochromic lenses are generally clear lenses which react to the UV rays from sunlight and turn darker in to sunglasses. Transitions XTRActive lenses start almost clear and react to the available light behind glass, such as a car windshield (as compared with standard photochromic which are not so effective behind glass that may have UV-blocking properties). Drivewear lenses are top-of-the-range driving lenses that have both photochromic AND polarized properties.
Mirrored Sunglasses: Stylish with a reflective outer coating, these sunglasses offer enhanced glare reduction and UV protection, ideal for sunny and bright environments. For more information please check out our mirrors and tints page here

They darken moderately indoors and achieve extra darkness outdoors, even in the hottest conditions, effectively blocking harmful UV rays and filtering blue light. Ideal for drivers and outdoor enthusiasts, XTRActive lenses ensure comfortable, sharp vision in all lighting conditions, while also providing a stylish, sophisticated look that transitions seamlessly from work to play.
Photochromic
Photochromic Grey
Photochromic lenses are clear lenses indoors but react to UV (Sunlight) and turn in to sunglasses. The more UV they receive the darker they go offering you just the right amount of protection for various light conditions.
Photochromic lenses tend not to work well behind a car windscreen as the windscreen itself filters out most of the UV which is required for the lens to react. However, see Transitions XTRActive lenses for lenses that react better behind a car windscreen.
When choosing Photochromic lenses there is no need to select an additional UV coating as full UV protection is already built in to the lens.

Whether you're spending a day at the beach or simply spending the day in town under the sun, our coating will provide reliable protection against UV rays, which can cause damage to your eyes and lead to vision problems in the long term. Additionally, our coating is exceptionally durable and scratch-resistant, ensuring long-lasting protection for your eyes.

Additionally, our coating is exceptionally durable and scratch-resistant, ensuring long-lasting protection for your eyes.
The purpose of an anti-reflective coating is to help eliminate annoying reflections on your lenses. The coating, also known as AR or anti-glare, offers a number of benefits for the user—such as reducing glare when working in front of a computer or driving at night. It also includes UV protection, safeguarding your eyes from harmful ultraviolet rays. Additionally, it enhances the appearance of your lenses by eliminating reflections, making them look nearly invisible when applied to clear lenses. This allows others to see your eyes and facial expressions more clearly, helping you look your best in all lighting conditions (notice how glasses-wearers on TV have crystal-clear, reflection-free lenses). Please note: The MAR coating is only applied to the inner surface of sunglass lenses.
Inner surface anti-reflective (AR) coatings on sunglasses are designed to minimize reflections from the back surface of the lens, enhancing clarity and comfort for the wearer. These thin-film coatings, comprised of multiple layers of metal oxides, interfere with reflected light, causing the waves to cancel each other out.
While primarily aimed at improving visual comfort by reducing light that might reflect into the wearer's eyes, modern AR coatings are also more durable. When combined with scratch-resistant properties, they offer extended longevity. Proper care, such as cleaning with a lens solution and microfiber cloth, ensures their lasting effectiveness.
For true 'premium seekers', Crizal Sapphire continues to deliver market-leading performance across all key vision criteria. It remains supremely easy to clean, is as scratch resistant as AR coated glass and boasts unparalleled hydrophobic performance
Essilor is the first manufacturer in the UK to offer a guarantee against scratches on AR coated lenses. Crizal Sapphire UV lenses come with a special two year guarantee which covers scratching and manufacturing defects.
LCD and LED computer and television screens, smartphones, tablets and GPS devices all emit blue light, also known as high-energy visible light. Although blue light in itself is a natural phenomenon – it is present in daylight and helps us to stay awake – over-exposure can have an adverse effect and cause eye strain, eye fatigue and even sleeplessness.
Blue Light Control neutralises the blue light emitted by digital screens, preventing eye fatigue and eye strain. It keeps the eyes in better condition, offering more comfortable and relaxed vision and better contrast perception.
