When you visit the eye doctor to get prescription
glasses, you spend some time choosing the frame that suits your face shape and
personal style. But do you also take time to choose the type of lens
appropriate for your eye problem and lifestyle?
“Wearing just any kind of glasses is not enough. It is
important to choose the right lens to get the best protection,” explains
Emelita Roleda, general manager of Essilor Philippines, the world’s leading
ophthalmic optics company.
Dr. Roleda explains that there are two types of lenses:
uncoated and multi-coated lenses. “Uncoated lenses are prone to damage and
don’t provide protection against elements that threaten healthy vision. Using
multi-coated lenses enhance the performance, quality and life of glasses.
Invest on high quality lenses as it will really pays off in the long run, in
terms of benefits to one’s eyesight.”
Meanwhile, multi-coated lenses are more advanced and
tightly controlled due to computer processes. These lenses are evenly layered,
can withstand high temperature and offer more improved performance.
Essilor’s Crizal® Prevencia is a multi-coated lens made
with smart technology that filters out harmful blue-violet and UV lights
emitted by the sun, gadgets, LED TVs, LED lights and fluorescent lights. On top
of preventing long-term vision damage, it allows good light that helps regulate
sleep and mood, and boosts brain activity.
“Do consult your eye doctor because they can recommend
the best lenses suitable to your needs and lifestyle,” Dr. Roleda adds.
