Thin & Lite 

Thin & Lite lenses do exactly what their name suggests, they make lenses thinner and lighter. The aim is to enhance comfort, make them more robust and give a sleeker look.

We offer 3 types of Thin & Lite lens

  1. Thin - up to 25% thinner
  2. Thinner - up to 35% thinner
  3. Thinnest - up to 50% thinner

This type of lens is ideal for those with higher prescriptions or for rimless frames.
