Optical 101: A Clear Guide to Your Lenses
At Penny Rose Optical, we believe your lenses should be crafted with the same level of care and precision as your frames. Just like our frames are handcrafted to fit you, so are your lenses—custom-cut to your exact measurements for the best clarity, comfort, and performance.
Single Vision Lenses
Designed for clear vision at one set distance, these lenses are a go-to for everyday wear. We offer single vision prescriptions up to ±4.00 sphere and -2.00 cylinder. If your prescription falls beyond this range, our RX department is here to help with customized options.
Readers & Progressives
- Readers: Great for up-close tasks like reading or detailed work.
- Progressives: A seamless transition between distance, intermediate, and near vision—no visible lines, just effortless clarity.
Lens Materials & Coatings
- Polycarbonate Lenses: Lightweight, impact-resistant, and perfect for an active lifestyle.
- Anti-Glare Coating: Reduces reflections for clearer, sharper vision.
- Blue Light Filter: Helps ease digital eye strain by filtering high-energy blue light from screens.
Light-Adaptive & Sun Protection
- Photochromic Lenses: Change from clear indoors to dark in sunlight—perfect for all-day wear.
- Tinted Lenses: Add a stylish touch while reducing brightness.
- Polarized Lenses: Reduce glare from water, roads, and other reflective surfaces for sharper outdoor vision.
Handcrafted to Your Measurements
What makes Penny Rose Optical truly unique? Every pair of lenses is custom-cut based on your exact measurements, just like our frames. Our precision process includes:
Pupillary Distance (PD): Ensures your lenses align perfectly with your eyes for optimal focus.
Segment Heights: Critical for progressive and multifocal lenses, ensuring smooth transitions between vision zones.
Frame Fit & Positioning: We take into account how your frames sit on your face—because every face is unique, and so is every pair we craft.
