THINNER LENSES (HIGH INDEX)

Thinner lenses not only improve the appearance of your lenses they make them more comfortable to wear, reducing pressure points on your ears and nose, unlike ordinary lenses.

As a result of the ability to bend light more than standard lenses, any lens made of high-index materials are thinner than the same prescription made from a conventional material.

Thinner lenses require less lens material, which reduces the overall weight of your glasses. Lenses made of high-index plastic are lighter than the same lenses made in conventional plastic, so they're more comfortable to wear. High-index glass lenses are also thinner, but high-index glass is heavier than conventional glass, so there is not as much weight savings with glass as there is with plastic lenses.

Most high index lenses come with an anti-reflection as standard.
