An Ordinary Day Calls for Extraordinary Eyewear

Advancements in technology help to improve your life in hundreds of ways every day. We believe better vision should be among those improvements. On any given day, you ask a lot of your eyes. Start your eyewear with a lens material that’s the best foundation for your needs. Only Trivex® lens material is an advanced technology that brings an unprecedented combination of crisp, clear vision, ultra-lightweight comfort, unsurpassed strength and protection to your lenses…and your life.


Who Should Wear Trivex?

Anyone who values clear, crisp vision every day. That’s because Trivex works with all frame styles and fits all lifestyles. Of course, with so many additional benefits, the reasons people fall in love with Trivex are many. Fashion frame wearers may appreciate the look and comfort of thin, lightweight lenses, while parents of school children might value the impact resistance and visual performance for reading and homework. The reason people request Trivex is often personal, but the preference is almost always unanimous.

Not all eyeglass lenses are equal.

Unfortunately, most lens materials require a trade-off. If you want a thinner lens, you’ll need to accept heavier and less durable lenses. To provide the high optical quality of standard plastic or CR-39 lenses, the trade-off is less strength and reduced durability. To benefit from the impact resistance of polycarbonate lenses, you will have to sacrifice some vision quality. And then there’s Trivex lens material.
