What Are Single-Vision Lenses?

Single-vision lenses correct one distance, either near or far, and are commonly used for distance glasses, reading glasses, or everyday prescription eyewear.

What Are Computer Lenses?

Computer lenses, also called near-variable focus lenses, are designed for desk work, screens, and comfortable intermediate or near vision.

What Are Progressive Lenses?

Progressive lenses provide distance, intermediate, and near correction in one lens without the visible lines of bifocals or trifocals.

What Are Bifocal Lenses?

Bifocal lenses provide clear vision at two distances, usually near and far, within a single prescription lens.

Lens Materials, Coatings & Comfort Benefits

Trivex lenses are lightweight, impact-resistant, and known for excellent optical clarity. They can be a strong choice for active patients who want durable, comfortable prescription eyeglasses with built-in UV protection.

Polycarbonate lenses are lightweight, impact-resistant, and often recommended for children, active lifestyles, and safety-focused eyewear. They also provide built-in UV protection for everyday use.

High-index lenses are thinner and lighter than standard lenses, making them helpful for stronger prescriptions. They can improve comfort and create a sleeker appearance while maintaining clear vision.

Photochromic lenses, often called transition lenses, darken outdoors and return to clear indoors. They offer convenience, UV protection, and everyday comfort for patients moving between indoor and outdoor environments.

Scratch-resistant coating helps protect lenses from everyday wear, keeping prescription glasses clearer for longer and supporting better durability for daily use.

Blue light and UV coatings can help improve visual comfort during screen use and protect the eyes from ultraviolet exposure. Your optician can recommend coatings based on your work, driving, and outdoor habits.

Anti-reflective coating reduces glare and reflections, which may improve night driving comfort, screen clarity, and the appearance of your eyeglasses.

Find the Right Contact Lenses for Your Vision and Lifestyle

Our contact lens fittings in San Francisco are designed to match your prescription, eye shape, tear film, comfort needs, and daily routine. We offer options such as daily disposable contacts, multifocal contact lenses, soft contact lenses, and other specialty designs when appropriate.

First-time contact lens wearers receive personalized insertion, removal, and hygiene training so they can feel more confident wearing and caring for their lenses. For patients with more complex needs, our doctors and opticians can help determine whether specialty lenses or medical eye care should be part of the plan.

What Vision Insurance Do We Accept?

Our San Francisco optical shop currently accepts two major vision insurance plans:

  • VSP
  • EyeMed

For patients using medical insurance, we can still provide glasses prescriptions and contact lens fittings; these services may be considered out-of-pocket depending on your plan. Please contact our office to review pricing, benefits, and the best options for your vision care needs.
