Freeform Single Vision Lenses

Here we'll tell you about the benefit of Freeform single vision lenses. Particularly the supererior clarity this technology offers wearers with high prescriptions.

Free-form technology is the most advanced optical lens manufacturing process that can reduce higher-order aberrations such as aspherical aberration that can occur in ophthalmic lenses processed with traditional manufacturing equipment. Traditional lenses are surfaced on 1 side and patient's best vision is in the centre of the lens. Digital lenses are surfaced on both sides and often called free-form because the lens is customized to the patient's prescription in a very precise manner.

Benefit from:

· Clear, sharp and crisp vision all around the lens compared to regular lenses where the best vision is from the middle of the lens

· Flatter and thinner lenses resulting in more comfortable wear

· Better and more durable coatings

· Easier adaptation to new and more complex prescriptions

· Minimal to no “swim effect”

· Low levels of unwanted astigmatism
