Types of Lenses
Eye Boutique opticians are lens experts, guiding you through the options for lenses and coatings to give you the best vision and value. All lens materials and coatings listed below are available for all our prescription lenses, including:
Single vision lenses
help correct either nearsighted or farsighted vision
Bifocal lenses
have two separate areas with different focal lengths and distinct optical powers.
Progressive lenses
(also called multifocal lenses) have a smooth transition between areas of the lens with different focal lengths, to correct all types of nearsighted and farsighted vision. GT2 progressive lenses use precision ZEISS technology to deliver satisfying, natural vision for everything you do.
PhotoFusion® lenses
adapt quickly to changing light conditions. The high- and mid-index lenses react up to 2 times faster* from dark to clear and up to 20% faster* from clear to dark than previous photochromic lenses by ZEISS.
Officelens®
by ZEISS keeps your eyes comfortable all day, fights digital eye strain and is good for many up-close activities like cooking, gardening, gaming and playing music.
PureCoat® PLUS
lenses offer very good anti-reflective properties and come with a blue reflection color.

Lens Materials
CR-39 Plastic
is a thermal-cured plastic polymer popular because of its low cost and light weight.
Polycarbonate
was first used to make helmet visors and safety glasses and is now a popular choice for prescription eyeglasses. Polycarbonate is lighter and more impact-resistant than CR-39 plastic.
High-index Plastic
a higher refractive index (how efficiently light passes through the material) than CR-39 plastic, making the lenses thinner and lighter.
Glass
lenses have excellent optical qualities, are scratch resistant and typically cost less than plastic. Glass lenses are not widely used because they are heavier and break more easily than plastic.

Anti-glare coating
(aka anti-reflective or AR coating) improves contrast and clarity by eliminating reflections in your lenses, including glare in pictures.
UV protection
can help prevent cataracts, macular degeneration and other eye problems caused by UVA and UVB rays.
Photochromic treatment
enables optical lenses to darken and clear in response to UV rays from the sun.
Blue light blocking
reduces digital eye strain by minimizing exposure to blue light emitted by screens and energy efficient lighting.
