MYOPIA  OR MYOPIC is a person who is nearsighted , meaning that when the light enters the eye through the cornea and the lens it is refracted causing the light to come to a focus point in front of the retina , thus causing things in the distance to be out of focus.

 

HYPERMETROPIA OR HYPEROPIC is someone who is farsighted , meaning that when the light enters the eye through the cornea and the lens it is refracted causing the light to come to a focus point behind the retina , thus causing things close by to be out focus while at a distance to seem in focus.

AR COATINGS : Did you know that over 80% of the information we receive through our senses is provided by our eyesight ? As the only link between that information and your eyes, eyeglass lenses play an essential role . The greater the transparency the more information they transmit . It is often presumed that a window pane ,the windshield of a car or your eyeglasses are completely transparent . The truth is that they all produce unpleasant reflections from the surrounding lights . For instance , standard eyeglass lenses only transmit 92% of visible light . The rest is pure reflection : mirror effect ,double vision , glare  etc.. In addition to hiding your eyes , the reflection on your lenses is a major source of daily eyestrain and discomfort .
