Lenses

The lenses that are chosen for your new glasses can make a very big difference to their functionality and appearance. At Blackwood Optical we use and recommend only quality lenses from reputable suppliers. Nearly all of our lenses come standard with scratch resistance on both the front and back surfaces – this is not always the case elsewhere.

Lenses come in different designs, with a variety of materials, coatings and treatments available. The following information is intended to guide you as to which lens may be better suited to your needs.
