What glasses do you offer?
Our expert opticians understand how important it is that you can both see sharply and feel confident with your new look. When it comes to prescription glasses, we offer a range of lens types to suit your needs exactly. Discover our lens types below.
Single Vision Glasses
Single vision lenses are available for short-sightedness (myopia) or far-sightedness (hyperopia). For higher prescriptions in the minus range, the lens thickens towards the edge, so you should choose a thicker frame.
Reading Glasses and Varifocal Glasses
From about the age of 40, many people begin to develop presbyopia, which makes reading glasses or sunglasses with prescription necessary in order to see sharply at close range of about 30 to 45 centimetres. However, they are not designed for sharp vision at longer distances.
If you don't want to be constantly taking reading glasses off and putting them on again, you can make things easier for yourself with varifocals, which correct short-sightedness, long-sightedness and presbyopia. They have three different visual zones, for distance, intermediate and near vision - the transitions are smooth. But be careful! The three zones need enough space to work properly. Very small frames are therefore out of the question. To learn more, view our detailed guide to varifocal glasses here.
Computer Glasses
Workplace glasses, also called computer glasses, are a slimmed-down version of varifocals. They are also used when you get presbyopia in addition to defective vision. Unlike varifocals, however, their range of vision is adapted to working at a computer screen; the focus is on an extended close-up range. In many cases, workplace eyeglasses prescribed by a doctor are subsidised by the employer. Just ask!
Blue Light Glasses
If you spend a lot of time in front of a screen, smartphone or TV on a daily basis, blue light filter glasses may be suitable for you. These protect your eyes from the short-wave blue HEV light, which can cause headaches, irritated eyes and insomnia by reducing the release of the sleep hormone melatonin. A blue light filter coating can be added to most lenses and is already included in some lenses. Some brands like VOOY already include non-prescription blue light filter lenses. View our detailed guide to learn more about blue light glasses here.
Non-Prescription Glasses & Custom Lenses
Whether it's for fashion purposes or for reducing blue-light strain, those of you looking for non-prescription glasses won't be disappointed. All of our frames can be ordered with window lenses, a.k.a clear lenses. We also offer anti-scratch coating or extra hardening as well as other features that you can find out about by clicking on "order with prescription" on the product of your choice.
Which glasses are on trend?
Currently on trend are metal frames in black, silver or gold, either round and minimalist or edgy and oversize. If you want a more striking look, opt for acetate models in the retro style of the Fifties and Sixties, preferably in tortoiseshell or transparent frame colours. Timeless classics like the Ray-Ban Clubmaster or cat-eye glasses are also always in fashion. You can also find out more about trends, fashion and lifestyle on the topic of eyewear on our blog.
How do I find the right pair of eyeglasses for me?
First of all, take a look at our various filter options on the left of the page. These make it much easier for you to choose your glasses. You can easily filter by gender, face shape, brand, material, colour or price and then browse your own personal selection with just a few clicks. If you're not quite sure which size or frame shape (round, square, heart-shaped or oval) to go for, take a look at the help videos from our optician, Phil. Are you looking for panto, cat-eye, square or rectangle glasses? Or would you rather choose between rimless, full rim or half rim?
Which glasses suit me? Virtual Mirror and Home Try-On
With such a wide range of glasses to choose from online, it can be difficult to know which pair suits you best. Often the only way to find out is by looking in a mirror. You can try on many of our frames online from your smartphone or computer using our 3D Virtual Try-On. All you need is a webcam or an uploaded photo. You will find the Virtual Mirror icon on the individual product pages. Thanks to our FREE returns within 30 days*, you also have the option of having several models sent to you to try on at home. We will send you an order link to your e-mail address, which you can use to access our digital optician's online. This calculates the best lens for your prescription and your individual needs. Once you have chosen your lenses, you can add enhancements such as UV protection, blue light filters or super anti-reflective coating. You can then send all the frames back and have lenses fitted to your favourite pair by our expert opticians.
