What Are High Index 1.74 Lenses?<\/strong><\/p>

If You Have A Very Strong Prescription, You Should Consider Ultra Thin High Index 1.74 Lenses.
High Index 1.74 lenses are the thinnest, flattest, and most cosmetically appealing lens ever developed.
These ultra thin lenses are nearly 40% thinner than plastic and 10% thinner than 1.67 high index lenses, offering you the ultimate in technology and cosmetics. The thinner lens is much more flattering, reducing the distortion that high prescriptions cause when made with lower quality lenses.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

What lens thickness should I choose?<\/strong>
If you\u2019re moderately, or very short-sighted you\u2019ll benefit from thinner lenses as the edge thickness of your lenses will be more visible.
Lenses with a refractive index of 1.6 are ideal for prescriptions where the value of your SPH prescription is between -2.50 and -4.00.
Between -4.00 and -6.00 we\u2019d recommend a lens with a refractive index of 1.67, and any prescriptions over that a lens with a refractive index of 1.74 will be more suitable.
If your prescription is over -5.00 we\u2019ll need an accurate measurement of the distance between your pupils, often referred to as the PD.
Because lenses for long and short-sightedness are different, there are different considerations for each.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

    Blue Light Fliter\u00a0<\/strong>
    Just like our regular blue light lenses, our blue block photochromic lenses are also engrained with a blue light element in its raw material.<\/p>

    Rapid Transitioning<\/strong>
    Our blue block photochromic lenses\u00a0change from light to dark when exposed to daylight. Regular blue light lenses when you’re indoors, then straight to sun lenses when you step outside.<\/p>

    100% UV Protection<\/strong>
    Our\u00a0lenses come with UV-A and UV-B filters which block 100% of UV rays from\u00a0the sun, so you can concentrate on\u00a0important things.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
