Of all the positions in the lab that require special skill and attention to detail, the AR lab is one of the most demanding. Our highly trained and experienced staff work hard to ensure that all the scratch-resistant, no glare lenses produced here are of the highest quality and will meet and exceed the expectations of you and your patients.
The requirements to be able to produce the Crizal® family of lenses in-house are strict, and those high standards are also applied to the production of our house brand no glare lenses, Aura and Sharpview. The video below is very informative about the Crizal® No Glare process.
Crizal® offers a full range of No-Glare lenses for the clearest vision possible and the most comprehensive daily UV protection. Crizal® sets the standard for glare reduction, water repellance, smudge and scratch resistance. Crizal® Prevencia®, deflects 20% of harmful Blue-Violet light and can be added to lenses with the new Smart Blue Filter for even more blue light reduction.
Crizal® lenses have an E-SPF® value of 25 — for 25 times more UV protection than going without eyewear. E-SPF® is a global index rating the overall UV protection of a lens. E-SPF® was developed by Essilor International and endorsed by third-party experts. A lens rating of E-SPF®25 means that an eye protected by the lens will receive 25 times less UV exposure than an unprotected eye.
