Your Ultimate Lens Guide
Our lens partners
Every prescription pair we sell is glazed with lenses from trusted partners including Zeiss, whose DuraVision Gold coating we offer on premium lenses, and Transitions, the light-adaptive lenses that darken outdoors and clear again inside. Whichever frame you choose, the optics behind it are from names opticians trust.
Choosing the right frame is only half the fun. Customising your lenses is where the magic happens: an everyday pair for the office, rugged glasses for the outdoors, or a sleek, thin lens for a high prescription. Use this guide to build the right lenses for your lifestyle, then pick them step by step when you add a frame to your basket.
Lens types
The foundation of your glasses, based on your prescription.
- Single vision. The classic choice: one prescription power across the whole lens. Perfect if you need glasses for reading, driving or everyday distance.
- Bifocal. Two viewing zones in one lens: the top for distance, a visible segment at the bottom for reading and close work.
- Varifocal (standard progressive). Distance, intermediate (screen) and near (reading) blended into one seamless lens with no visible line. Read more in Varifocals Explained.
- Premium varifocal. Advanced digital surfacing gives wider fields of view, smoother transitions between distances and far less of the peripheral "swim" that new wearers notice.
Lens materials
The stronger your prescription, the thicker a standard lens becomes. A higher-index material keeps the lens thin, light and comfortable.
Sun tints and adaptive lenses
Turn everyday glasses into sunglasses, or into lenses that adapt to the light.
Lens coatings and enhancements
Protect your eyes and your investment with a premium finish. Our top coating is Zeiss DuraVision Gold.
