IZON lenses Clearest and best night vision available

Today I would like to talk about cutting edge technology for spectacle lenses. For a little background we have always been able to accurately assess near sightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism. These "aberrations" correct about 85% of your vision. We have also known that there were other aberrations or hills and valleys in the visual system. A few years ago something called wavefront technology came along which was able to measure these other aberrations. This information has been used successfully in lasik proceedures in the last few years. However this additional information has never been possible to incorporate in specatacle lenses until now. Izon lenses use the ZVIEW aberrometer to collect this information and incorporate it into new lenses both single vision and progressives to produce a final product which offers the most clear lens available today. These lenses produce a sharp clear high definition image with improved night driving. If you have ever had brand new prescriptions from your eye doctor but everything still seems a little off, the problem is probably these other aberrations which are not being corrected.

Our patients have been raving about these new lenses. One lady stated "her old lenses were like the technolgy of Jurrasic Park but her new lenses were like the clarity of Avatar.
It is great that these lenses are available in both single vision and progressive.

Our office is very proud to be able to offer these advanced lenses to improve vision to the highest quality available today. We would suggest that the next time you have your eyes examined to try to find a practioner that offers these lneses. Not everyone needs these lenses but for those that do the difference is amazing.

Transition Lenses

Photochromatic lenses have been around for many years. In the early days they were available in glass only and then went to plastic a number of years ago. These are lenses that change and get dark in the sun and then change back when one comes back inside. The vast majority of these lenses are now called transition lenses and are available in most materials today. The newest generation of transition lenses came out about a year ago and are FANTASTIC! They get much darker than previous generations and change more quickly than earlier generations. These lenses also block harmful UVA and UVB rays that can cause damage to the eye over time. All of these lenses in this "photochromatic" category are temperature dependent. That is they will get darker in cold weather and not as dark in warm weather. Also inside of a car the windshield will block many of the rays that make these lenses change and get dark. Therefore for driving a dedicated sunglass is a better choice. But for general use you will find transition lenses a beneficial feature to add when you are getting your new glasses. This is something that must be done at the time that your glasses are ordered and cannot be ' added on ' at a later date. This is because the material is different to allow these lenses to change and get light or dark.
If you had an older generation of these types of lenses in the past and were not satisfied, do yourself a favor and try this new generation of transitions. You will be glad that you did.
