Is it necessary to get an eye exam even if I am satisfied with my ready made reading glasses?
Definitely. The use of readymade reading glasses is perfectly safe but does not replace the need for regular eye exams. There are many silent robbers of vision that if caught early can be easily treated or prevented. Glaucoma is a perfect example of an eye disease that is often asymptomatic and will remain undetected without regular eye exams.If there is no value under the cylinder heading, then you have a simple prescription. If there is a value under this heading, then you have astigmatism.

You will be able to order glasses with clear prescription lenses or with tinted prescription sunglass lenses with anti-scratch, anti-UV, and / or anti-reflective coating. You will also have a choice of lens materials such as CR-39 plastic, polycarbonate, Trivex, or hi-index.Light rays passing through the optical center (OC) of a lens are not refracted. With proper PD measurements, your eyes are centered at the optical center of the lens. For taking your unique fitting measurements, your physical presence is absolutely necessary. We will need to pre-adjust the frame on your face before ordering your glasses.

The "standard plastic" lenses are often called "Hard Resin", "CR-39 plastic", or just quot;plastic" lenses. CR-39 is actually a PPG Industries registered trade name for a DADC (diallyl diglycol carbonate) polymer that was introduced in 1941. The "CR" stands for Columbia Resin and CR-39 was the 39th batch or formula made by Columbia Laboratories in Ohio.Light rays passing through the optical center (OC) of a lens are not refracted.

Frames are identified by manufacturer / designer, model number or name, size, and color information.
