Eye Diseases

The Importance of a thorough Eye Examination

Most diseases of the eye progress slowly. Only if your eyes are checked regularly (at least every 2 years) can your eye health be monitored properly and the best preventative steps taken.

At Eyecare Plus we take the time to give you a complete eye examination each time you visit us.

Your vision is our focus.

A Life Less Squinty

New Lenses That Respond to Sunlight

Spectacle lenses with a tint that responds to sunlight (photochromics) have been available since the early 1970's. However, until recently these lenses were always made from glass.

Now new lightweight colour change lenses are available made from resin (or plastic). There are several different brands but the most widely known are called Transitions.

• Photochromic plastic lenses are light weight
• They respond to suit varying levels of glare
• They also offer UV-protection as a feature of the material
• The lens surfaces are treated to resist scratching
• Newer versions also include high index materials for further reductions in weight & thickness.
