Prescription sunglasses lens options
You’ll find a variety of sunglasses with prescription lenses at our practices, giving you both clear vision and 100% UV protection. Our opticians will work with you to select the perfect lens type for your needs, whether that’s polarised lenses, photochromic lenses, or varifocal options.
Here's a closer look at the options available:
Polarised prescription sunglasses
Polarised lenses reduce glare from reflective surfaces like water, roads, and snow, making them ideal for driving, skiing, and water sports. Available as an upgrade on most frames, polarised prescription sunglasses offer superior clarity and comfort.
Varifocal and single vision sunglasses
We offer both single vision and varifocal prescription sunglasses. Whether you need just one prescription for near or distance vision, or a multi-zone lens for all distances, our optometrists will guide you to the right choice.
