High-Definition Vision With Glasses?

We have HDTV and Blue-Ray DVD’s, so why not High-Definition Glasses? The answer is, we DO have that equivalent technology. Free Form technology is here from a few special lens manufactures around the world and we are very proud to offer them to our patients.

What is the difference?  The enhanced vision is found for two different reasons.

#1:  The lenses are digitally fabricated by a computer instead of being ground by a technician.  The precision and accuracy is greatly enhanced by the computer’s ability to create exact specifications.

#2:  The prescription is now etched onto the INSIDE surface of the glasses instead of the outside surface.
This small difference in prescription placement is HUGE.  Based on the keyhole principle;  the closer the prescription is to your eyes, the wider your field of view is.  Most people have experienced the ‘swim and sway’ distortion associated with no-line bifocals.  This has been greatly minimized with the advent of putting the Rx on the inside surface of the glasses.  In fact, some of these new digital no-line bifocals can give up to a 30% wider field of view.

We hope this will encourage the few who have not been able to ‘adjust’ into their no-line bifocals in the past, and will give others the confidence of high definition vision when it comes time to update your prescription at your annual eye exam.
