Lenses
Gavin Opticians’ goal is to help you understand and choose the correct lenses and frames that match your needs and expectations. That’s why, our practices stock lenses from the world’s two foremost optical lens companies, Essilor and Zeiss: so you can get the highest quality vision and the most advanced technologies.
Varilux® XR series™
Varilux® XR series™ is the first eye-responsive progressive lens² powered by behavioral artificial intelligence. Beyond prescription and eye physiology the design now considers visual behavior, a prerequisite for fast and precise eye movements.
Zeiss Precision Superb
Eyezen® Focus is a power distribution technology designed to optimise object distance and gaze direction while supporting the eye’s accommodative effort for near vision. Customised to the patient’s age, the lenses work to reduce eye fatigue.
Zeiss Precision Plus
Optimized for the eyes + frame: lenses that consider closer reading distance for digital devices and also fashion frame trends that are constantly evolving with new shapes and sizes. Fast adaptation of your eyes to the lenses – in any frame.
Zeiss Digital
This lens is designed to meet the vision needs of those in their 30s and 40s. Especially suited to those who often use digital and mobile devices, and start experiencing near vision discomfort for the first time.
Zeiss DuraVision® Platinum
The ZEISS DuraVision® Platinum is made up of nine ultra-thin layers, resulting in a lens surface that is three times harder than the previous generation of hard coated plastic ZEISS lenses. Discover the technology behind the hardest ZEISS lenses with DuraVision® Platinum AR coating.
Transitions® GEN S™
Transitions® GEN S™ are our perfect everyday lenses. They are ultra-responsive to light, offer a spectacular colour palette and provide HD vision at the speed of your life. With Transitions® GEN S™, superpower your glasses & supersmooth your life.
Stellest®
Stellest® lenses are Essilor®’s latest innovation to slow down myopia progression in children.
Essilor® Stellest® lenses slow down myopia progression by 67% on average, compared to single vision lenses, when worn 12 hours a day.
Varilux® Physio 3.0
Varilux® Physio® 3.0 delivers High Resolution Vision in all light conditions—and at every distance. Experience Varilux® Physio® 3.0, offering high-definition vision, whether looking far, near, or in between. All progressive lenses have tiny imperfections caused by the curvature of the lens surface, which can distort the way you see. Varilux® Physio® 3.0 lenses use WAVE 2.0 technology to remove those distortions and provide sharp vision even in low light conditions.
Varilux® Comfort Max
Varilux® Comfort Max lenses are designed to adjust to your unique natural postures, and not the other way around, providing enhanced postural flexibility and a stretched useful vision zone for all-day-long vision comfort.
Eyezen Boost®
Eyezen® Focus is a power distribution technology designed to optimise object distance and gaze direction while supporting the eye’s accommodative effort for near vision. Customised to the patient’s age, the lenses work to reduce eye fatigue.
Crizal Sapphire™ HR
Crizal® Sapphire™ HR No-Glare lenses meet all expectations by combining the most innovative technologies to provide the best anti-reflective coating overall.1 Crizal® Sapphire™ HR No-Glare lenses shield the eyes and lenses against reflections, scratching, smudging and UV light for long-lasting transparency, durability, and protection.
Bifocal
Bifocal lenses contain two different prescriptions in the same lens. The primary purpose of bifocals is to provide the optimal balance between distance vision and near vision focusing needs. These eyeglass lenses are available with the reading segments in a variety of shapes and widths including sunglass options. The most popular reading bifocal is the Flat-Top (also known as straight-top or D-segment) which is 28mm wide.
