Let’s learn more about the most recent lenses that have been released by Essilor – designed to help you See Life Better with the vision you deserve.

Crizal Rock™: Say Goodbye to Scratched Lenses with Latest Scratch-Resistant, No-Glare Lens

Being a scratch golfer. Impressive. Being a scratched lens? Less so. But don’t worry, active folks. We’ve got you covered.

Introducing Crizal Rock™, Essilor’s most scratch-resistant no-glare lens. Combining their signature Crizal anti-reflective coating with amazing scratch- and smudge-resistant technology, Crizal Rock can do what many no-glare lenses won’t; offer an anti-reflective coating with unmatched durability.

How Crizal Rock Works

Crizal Rock features Essilor’s innovative High-Resistance Technology™, which combines specific oxides proven to resist dust and scratches.

The High Surface Density™ Super Hydrophobic topcoat makes lenses easier to clean, while the Anti-Particulate Layer works to repel dust and particles to keep them clean for longer.

Crizal Rock lenses were put through rigorous testing, including:

  • Sand Resistance Test – 300 shake cycles in sand to test scratch resistance
  • Stain Resistance Test – ink splatters on lenses to test how easily they could be cleaned and how durable the topcoat is
  • Torture Test – tested activities like dropping the glasses and improper cleaning

The result? A lens like no other. A lens that can keep up with the busiest, most active of lifestyles.

Transitions™ Signature® Gen 8®: Lenses That Can Keep Up With You

Looking for outstanding visual performance, indoors and outside, day or night? Well, look no further than the newest generation of Transitions lenses. They are designed to keep up with your lifestyle. Just a few of the amazing features in these light-adjusting lenses?

Varilux®: How’s That for Progress?

Vision changes as we age, but that doesn’t mean it should get in the way of everything we do in a day. Varilux progressive lenses offer the most natural vision possible for up-close, mid and far ranges, all in one lens.

The Varilux X Series™, featuring Xtend™ Technology, is the most advanced progressive lens available today. In addition to providing sharp vision and smooth transitions at any distance, it extends your vision within arm’s reach. This means you no longer have to tilt or angle your head to find your focus. Now that’s progress!

What Makes Varilux the #1 Progressive Lens Available

Unlike bifocals or ordinary progressive lenses, only Varilux progressive lenses help you achieve the most natural vision possible. Discover which Varilux option is right for you:

Is it Time for an Eye Exam?

Good vision improves performance at school and work. It’s tough to focus if you’re having vision problems, which may contribute to reading and concentration issues. So whether you’re heading back to the classroom this month or heading back to the office on Monday, let’s make sure your glasses and contacts are working as hard as you do.

While you’re there, browse our beautiful optical shops and talk to our skilled opticians to help select the very best lens and frame combo for you.
