Choosing the right lenses for your frames can be overwhelming. We believe in taking an individual approach whatever your lifestyle. Whether you wear glasses all day or for specific activities such as driving, reading, watching TV or using a computer, we can recommend the best lens choice to meet your needs.

With improved technology you will find that lenses are now much thinner, flatter and optically superior.

At Ryatt Optometry we only sell the best branded lenses from Essilor, Hoya and Zeiss.

Single vision lenses provide the same vision correction over the entire lens. They correct a particular vision. Such as distance vision if you’re short sighted (myopia) or close up vision if you’re long sighted (hyperopia).

Bifocal lenses have two separate vision zones, separated by a line, that corrects both near and distant vision. The top segment of the lens provides correction for distance vision and the bottom one provides correction for close up vision.

Varifocal lenses (progressives) offer clear vision at all distances with the added benefit of not having any visible lines on the lens. The lenses have distance vision when looking straight ahead, near vision at the lower part of the lens and all distances in between, which enables the wearer to switch between reading a book and watching television without switching glasses.

New Hi-index lenses material means that your lenses can be made thinner, lighter and better looking. This is especially good news if you have a high power prescription. You don't need to wear thick unsightly lenses or have your choice of frames restricted.
