Lens Selection
Finding the right lens for you and your lifestyle is not as simple as it seems. Advances in technology have produced various materials and treatments that have improved the clarity of your corrected lenses. Wooten Vision Care offers four types of lenses and three types of materials to fit your needs and lifestyle. Please be sure to discuss your lifestyle with our doctors or opticians as they can provide important information in making the correct combination of lens and material.
| Types of lens: | Description |
| Single Vision | Same vision correction over whole lens area. |
| Line Bifocal | This lens has two distinct focal ranges and allows you to see in the distance and near. One line separates the two focal ranges. |
| Unlined Trifocal | This lens has three distinct focal ranges and allows you to see in the distance, intermediate and near. Two lines separate the three focal ranges. |
| Progressive | This lens is truly an all-focal range lens. The lens is the highest technologically advanced lens available, offering the nearest to natural vision as any multifocal lens. |
| Types of materials: | Description |
| Plastic (CR-39) | This is the basic lens material which offers good value for lower prescriptions |
| Polycarbonate | This material produces the strongest, lightest lenses available. As the most impact-resistant lenses, its inherent properties make it 10 times stronger, 20% thinner, and 30% lighter than the basic lens. |
| High Index Plastic | These thin and light lenses significantly improve the appearance of your glasses, especially if you have a high prescription. Because they are 40% thinner and lighter than standard lenses, they improve the appearance and make your glasses more comfortable to wear. |
| Treatments: | Description |
| Ultra-Violet (UV) | This is a highly recommended coating because it protects your eyes from the harmful effects of the sun's ultraviolet light. |
| Scratch Resistant | Protects your lenses against the rigors of everyday life. A clearer lens means clearer vision. This coating will extend the life of your lens. |
| Anti-Reflection | Eliminates glare and offers clearer, sharper vision at night and during the day. The result is a more visible eye and an improved appearance. |
| Tints | A full or graduated tint can transform your glasses. Available in shades of brown, grey, green, blue, pink and yellow and combined custom colors to allow you to create your own unique look. Additionally, tints can relieve eye strain, enhance your eye color and complexion, and soften harsh, bright light. |
Frame Styles
Your frames make a statement about you to the world around you. Make sure that your frame conveys who you are at Wooten's Optical. Our staff of opticians work hard to match you to the frames you have always wanted.
Unlike a new pair of shoes, eyeglasses are inherently noticeable: they're out there in front, on your face, ready to be noticed, every day. If you don't think your eyewear can make a huge difference in other people's perception of you, take a look at Clark Kent/Superman. A simple pair of nerdy eyeglasses so completely changes the appearance of Clark Kent that nobody sees Superman just behind the frames.
