A guide to our sun lenses

Most wearers of spectacles wear them all day, every day. For those of us fortunate to be in sunnier climes the same can be said for Sunglasses. We want your frames to more than compensate for the inconvenience of short or longsightedness, not only in comfort and functionality, but also style. Eyewear is an instant style enhancer, and today we offer our archival, iconic designs with our personalisation lens service.

We offer the following types of lens:

Lens coatings & treatments:

Polarised lenses have a virtually invisible filter to eliminate the amount of reflecting light that enters the eye.They not only reduce glare, they make images appear sharper and clearer, increasing visual clarity and comfort. A polarised filter can be added to all different colour lenses.

Personalise your lens colour:

These sunglass lenses are both stylish and practical for UV protection. While the blue tint enhances the contours around objects and improves colour perception, they also can have a calming effect on the eyes. ⁠They help reduce glare during snowy conditions, water sports, or in sunny conditions.

Mirror lenses are covered in a reflective coating on the surface that reflects bright, direct light away from your eyes, allowing you to see clearly in outdoor settings. Ideal for sunny outdoor beach days, trips on the water, skiing, alpine hiking or driving.

As a guide our Prescription charges start at £80.00 for Single Vision lenses for reading or distance and £180.00 for Varifocal lenses.
