Multifocals

Multifocals allow the distance and reading prescriptions to be incorporated into a single lens with out unsightly lines and with smooth progression from the distance portion of the lens to the reading area.

Current research into multifocal lens designs have meant that they now offer less distortion, wider fields of view and more natural vision.

The new generation multifocals are called Freeform designs, and the prescription details generate the lens design parameters.

The best multifocal lens designs available now are able to be personalised to match the multifocal wearers prescription, how the glasses sit on the face and tailored to required tasks. They are a little more expensive, but are great for people who are need them more often.

At Barossa and Light Optometrist, we only use free form technology to allow you the clearest and most comfortable vision.

Computer and Office Lenses

Computer and office lenses are designed to allow reading at a computer distance, while maintaining a wide field of vision. This lets you see and work at your best in precisely the range of vision that your job requires and also allows your head and neck to be in a relaxed and natural position.

Thinner and Lighter Lenses

Anti Reflection Coatings

Because AR coatings eliminate reflections they are also cosmetically better for photos, TV, and public speaking.

Studies have shown that anti reflection coatings provide sharper night vision with less glare, which is a real advantage for night driving.

Super hard and water repellent like the Ultimate, they increase the hardness of the lens to reduce scratching, and repel water which reduces smudging.

Tinted Lenses

Photochromic/Transitions which are lenses that tint according to light conditions : clear inside and sunglass in direct sunlight

In Australia, we have one of the highest UV ratings in the world and it makes sense to have good glare and UV protection.
