Transition/Photochromic
Lenses - These lenses darken and lighten according to
light exposure. If you are in the sun, they darken, if indoors
the lenses are light. They are available in grey, brown, green
and fashion tints pink, yellow and blue. Stop in at Iowa Eye
Center Optical to see samples of these colors!
Ultra-violet
Protection - The sun's ultra-violet rays pose potential
harm to your eyes. UV protection on lenses accomplishes the
same thing as sunscreen lotion on your skin--it shields your
eyes from harmful UV rays.
Anti-Reflective
Coating - This coating helps reduce eye fatigue in many
situations, particularly at night and while viewing computer
screens. Anti-reflective lenses are also cosmetically desirable,
as the wearer's eyes are clearly visible behind the lenses,
not hidden in reflections.
Polarized
Sun Lenses - Any surface can create glare in sunlight,
including water, sand, snow, windows, vehicles, and buildings.
Polarization eases eye strain and fatigue in the sun by eliminating
glare.
Tinted
Lenses - Tints come in a rainbow of color options from
very light to very dark to gradient (darker on the top fading
to clear on the bottom).
Mirrored
Sun Lenses- Mirrored coatings provide a reflective surface
that makes the eye invisible to viewers. Mirrors come in a
variety of colors to enhance visual performance.
High
Index Lenses - Thinner, flatter lenses enhance the lens
appearance by reducing edge or center thickness. They are
lighter weight and have Ultra-violet protection.
