Tortoiseshell glasses have many benefits.
Tortoiseshell glasses are made from the only sea turtle on the earth that can digest the glass material, and its sea turtle is the country's most precious wildlife, which is of great value. Wearing tortoiseshell glasses will not easily slip off even if you sweat and will not produce allergic symptoms. Tortoiseshell is so strong that it will not break even when the frames are bent to 45 degrees and will not be deformed throughout the year. In addition, the stability of the tortoiseshell is good.
What is the progressive multifocal lens?
The lens of progressive multifocal glasses can change the refraction of the lens at the upper part of the central channel of the line of sight, which can effectively solve the difference of refraction when people view objects at different distances from long, medium, and short distances. Depending on demand, people have the flexibility to change or compensate vision according to visual distance, making it easier to help to adjust your vision in a variety of situations.
The Customization of Glasses
For the first time, you must go to a professional medical institution for medical optometry. Before the age of 12, you should dilate mydriasis and optometry. After the age of 12, you should decide whether to dilate mydriasis and optometry according to the specific situation of the eyes. The lens must be smooth, transparent, without bubbles and particles, with a uniform texture. The hanging ear of the temple should be attached to the outline of the outer ear, and the tightness should be moderate, so as not to slip.

The design evolution of progressive lenses
Spherical and aspheric designs
The design of the front surface of the far-use area of the early progressive lens is similar to that of the ordinary spherical single vision lenses, so it is called a spherical progressive lens. Since 1974, the front surface of the far-use region of the lens is designed to be aspheric by designers, which not only reduces the peripheral aberration but makes the lens thinner, lighter, and less powerful.
Hard and soft design
For hard design, the channel is short, and the gradient is large. The near-use area position is high. The effective visual area of remote and near-use areas was larger. Peripheral astigmatism is relatively concentrated. Because surrounding astigmatism increases rapidly and the distribution is dense, the curve effect is more obvious. The gradient area is narrow. It is more difficult and takes longer for wearers to adapt.
Lenses with soft designs have slower gradients, longer gradients, and wider gradients. The angle of rotation of the eye from the far area to the near area is greater. It's easier to get used to. Compared with the hard design, the effective visual area of the far and near use areas is smaller, and the location of the near use area is lower.
Single, diverse, and individualized design
Initially, the progressive lenses used a single design, in which each basic curve was scaled equally and a luminosity combination was added within the range of its semi-finished lens blanks. The steepest base curve uses the same lens design as the flattest base curve. Lenses designers quickly realized that the overall performance of the lens could be improved by microcustomizing the lens design, leading to progressive lenses with multiple designs. This kind of design is called diverse design. By the mid-1990s, there was the emergence of individualized lens designs. In addition to using different gradients, these first individualized lens designs used steeper baseline curves with a slightly larger approach area to compensate for increased magnification and reduced field of view.
Symmetrical and asymmetric design
There is no difference between the left and right eyes in the symmetrical design of progressive lenses. As the eyes turn inward when they see near objects, the gradual gradient area gradually tilts to the nasal side from top to bottom, so the left/right progressive lenses should be rotated clockwise/counterclockwise respectively during processing. An asymptotic lens with left and right eye divisions is called an asymmetric design. The gradient is gradually and moderately inclined to the nasal side from top to bottom. The refractive force, astigmatism, and vertical prism of the two sides of the left and right gradient of the asymmetric design lenses are basically similar. At the same time, considering the characteristics of eye movement parameters in binocular vision, the peripheral aberrations of the corresponding positions of the left and right lenses were appropriately balanced to improve the visual effect of the wearer.
Why do glasses with the same prescription feel different?
The style of the frame has changed. The structure of the new glasses and the old glasses (half-frame, rimless, full-frame) may be different, and the angle of the glasses may also be different, which will cause visual differences and the symptoms of dizziness after wearing the new glasses. If you used to wear rimless glasses or half-rim glasses before and switch to full-frame glasses, you will feel that his field of view is limited and you will feel a little uncomfortable when you see the edge of the frame. If you wear full-frame glasses before, you will feel the edge of the lens when you change to half-rim glasses. It's too bright to adapt. There is another situation, changing from a frame with a nose pad to a frame without nose pads. Because the distance between the lens and the eye has changed, the position of the nose pad has also changed, which directly affects the relative position of the optical center and the pupil, as well as the distance from the back vertex of the lens to the cornea, which naturally affects the visual difference. In this case, you can fine-tune the nose pads, or after a short-term adaptation, you can generally return to normal.
Normally, opticians do not want to change their original visual habits (to maintain visual continuity) and want to copy a pair of glasses with the same vision. When optometry, they must provide the used old glasses and their optometry record sheet for inspection. With personnel reference. Simply put, comfort is equal to habit. If you want new glasses to wear comfortably, you must keep your original habits. It's not just the reproduction of luminosity. If you don't wear suitable glasses often, you will feel uncomfortable once you wear them.
Why are eyeglass frames are so expensive?
Plastic frames are often used for rimless glasses, but they are not very resistant to corrosion and break easily. The plate is a new type of plastic, and it is light and has high hardness, not easy to deform, but the surface is easily corroded by sweat. TR90 has features of wear resistance, good chemical resistance, solvent resistance, weather resistance, not burning, high-temperature resistance. Plastic steel does not contain any metal, but it is a kind of high-strength molecular material, lighter than TR90. They have a higher level in corrosion resistance and strength and other aspects. The frames made of good materials are more comfortable, durable, and textured in daily wear, and will not cause skin allergies. Plate, titanium, TR90, alloy are the most used materials on the market at present. The price is in dozens of yuan to hundreds, thousands of yuan.
