Hey, a video for how to choose lenses for thick myopics would be really useful. It would be useful to see the difference in thickness, weight and how they look on the eye. Also the importance of how PDs and choosing the right frame could affect the final result of your glasses ☺️
Hey there, Sid is wearing Ferring 3 here. We have this pair in stock, you can place an order from our website. Here's the link- specscart.co.uk/clear-frame-reading-glasses.html
3 different distances with no visible horizontal separation between each distance prescription without peripheral distortion is what they should be. Like those lenses that have two clear separate lenses but without the visible separation that can be seen. The whole width of the lens at the same augmentation with a seamless and invisible transition. Why can't it be done?
Hi, progressive lenses are intended to provide distinct vision corrections for near, intermediate, and distance vision without the use of separate lenses. This seamless transition is achieved by gradually changing the prescription within the lens. Progressive lens technology has evolved substantially over the years, but obtaining a perfectly seamless and distortion-free transition can be extremely tough due to complex manufacturing of the lenses. However, as optical technology advances, manufacturers continue to improve progressive lenses to provide wearers with higher visual quality and comfort and soon we would be seeing new lens technology without peripheral distortion.
Hi there, to order bifocals, please place the order for varifocals on the website and give us a call to make changes to your order accordingly. Should you have any further questions, please reach out to us at support@specscart.co.uk
Please explain the difference between Basic, Thin and Ultra-Thin. Do these all give the same level of distortion? What do you mean by powers 0-3 etc? I get that the thinner ones might be lighter. But why else should i select them
Thin lenses are high index lenses which allow a higher prescription to be packaged in comparatively thinner lenses. Thin lenses are not only lighter, more comfortable and stylish, they are also stronger. We offer three types of lenses based on their thickness - Basic - Standard or basic lenses have an index of 1.5 or 1.56. Thin - Thin lenses have an index of 1.6 or 1.63 and are around 20% thinner than basic lenses. Ultra Thin - Ultra-thin lenses have an index of 1.67 and are around 30% thinner than basic lenses. We recommend basic lenses for prescriptions up to +/- 3, thin lenses for prescriptions up to +/- 6, and ultra thin lenses for prescriptions up to +/- 9. We recommend thinner lenses in case of higher prescriptions for maximum visual comfort and also a stylish look.
I just picked up my set of lenses, V.E. one verifocal and reading, but noticed the reading numbers are totally different from the verifocal receipt. Why is it so ?
Hi, sorry for the late response. There are different forms of prescription receipts, and reading bits are especially the parts that could confuse. As some specify the 'Near ADD' but others directly write reading strength depending on every optician's preferences. So we think you can double check the same with your optician if you are not sure about this!

I only want bifocals but where can I ask for this on the online order pages??
