A spectacle lens is a miracle of science! It consists of a material
that has to be perfect: transparent, light and and homogeneous
in structure coupled with the most advance technology and
precise manufacturing. A lens should also offer UV protection
without a tint and should be easy to look after.

Presbyopia is a natural progression as you age. In this
modern world, age is just a number, “mature" doesn't have
to mean "old" anymore. If you're prebyopic, you have more
options than just the lined bifocal lenses your parents wore.

Progressive lenses not only provide visual correction for
distances that traditional bifocals can't, but they also hide the
fact that you even need reading glasses. No one else has to
know whether you're sporting a pair of glasses just for fashion
— or because your arms have "grown too short" to allow you to
see up close.

   
Progressive lenses are the closest to natural vision that you can get in a pair of prescription eyeglasses
(for Prebyopic condition). They are more than just a defined near and distance correction in one lens.
 Rather, progressives provide a seamless vision from distance through intermediate to near, with all the
in-between corrections included as well. This constant graduation of the prescription means that you can
look up to see in the distance, look ahead to view your computer in the intermediate zone, and drop your
gaze downward to read and do fine work comfortably close up.

IMAGE 
Award-winning progressive design with the widest range of option
Available in all material
Available in Transitions6
The award-winning IMAGE® progressive has been rated favorably in
recent independent studies. IMAGE boasts one of the widest
distortion free distance zones in the industry, and is available in the
widest range of materials, treatments and colors available.

Several independent studies have ranked the Image progressive
lens among the best in the industry. This is in part because Image's
award-winning design has one of the widest distortion-free distance
zones in the industry, without compromising on the intermediate and
near zones. And the Image progressive lens is available in more
lens materials and treatments than any other single
progressive. With so many options, Image can be put into nearly
any frame, from small frames with a narrow fitting height to drilled
rimless to sporty wrap frames. 

No matter what the wearer's lifestyle or personal style, Image offers
the right visual solution.

"With all the hype and excitement surrounding the optical industry's
new technologies, new trends, new designs, and new products, it's
easy to overlook those tried and true products that have been
available for awhile and have proven their worth. One such product is
the Image Progressive lens from Younger Optics... With all of
today's new product hype, Younger's Image PAL (progressive
addition lens) still stands out as one of the optical industry's tried
and true progressive lenses."

DRIVING TASK
At every moment of the “Driving Task” we are constantly being challenged and “assaulted” by distractions attacking our ability to drive safely. While juggling a cell phone in one hand, adjusting the radio or CD in another, catching up on a quick lunch, and trying to keep kids in the back seat quiet, it all just becomes too much to handle. Making driving even more difficult is changing road and weather conditions. Many of us are also driving under less than ideal conditions while tired, or just not feeling our best. Many people also cope with physical challenges or age that may slow driving reaction times. All this adds up to making driving an extremely complex task even under the best of conditions. Sometimes it is a wonder that we are able to arrive anywhere safely. Truly, we are bordering right on the edge of our ability to handle all these stimuli, and when we go over that edge, we are in very real danger of having an accident. The main tool we use to cope with all these driving challenges is vision. Yet vision is also pushed to the limits while driving. It takes about 1/4 of a second to process and react to a driving visual incident, and if you are traveling at 60 mph, that translates to about 22 feet! Clearly we need all the visual help we can get to drive safely. The most common and dangerous visual assault comes from blinding glare.

This glare can be intense sunlight reflected from an endless variety of smooth surfaces such as the road, hood or dashboard of your car, or even the bright chrome of the car in front of you. These conditions are especially harmful when the sun is low on the horizon, such as early mornings and late afternoons, which are also peak commuting times. Polarized lenses are the best solution to taking out most of this accident. While bright sun and glare are the most obvious visual dangers while driving, sometimes the conditions we drive in are the reverse: overcast, often with inclement weather, and less light. For these conditions we want a lens that is as light as possible, and also of a high contrast color. Polarization protection is still important during these times because glare, particularly road glare, can unexpectedly hit at any time, and since the eye has accommodated to these overcast conditions it is particularly susceptible to blinding, bright glare. Drivewear is the only lens developed to specifically address the Driving Task. Polarized at all times and designed to shift between a lighter and darker color as visual conditions change, it is the ultimate in driving eyewear.

TRILOGY AVAILABLE
Single vision Trilogy
Progressive Lens Trilogy


Today’s consumer has more choices than ever before when it comes to their eyewear. New technology offers patients features and benefits that have made eyeglasses more fashionable and stylish.  In the past, patients have had to make some compromises when it came to their eyewear.  They had to put up with “chromatic aberration”, an annoying tendency of some lenses that created a colored blur around objects, or lenses that were thin but not as light weight as they’d expect. 

Today, this is no longer the case.  With our Trilogy lens material, patients get clear, crisp vision without compromise.  Trilogy lenses deliver superior optics when compared with other lens materials.  They also get a thin lens that is one of the most lightweight lens materials available today.

Trilogy lens material also offers superior impact resistance.  It exceeds the FDA requirement for impact resistance.  Due to the superior strength of Trilogy, it makes a great choice for today’s stylish eyewear frames, many of which require drilling or grooving the lens. Trilogy lens material from Younger Optics also blocks out 100% of harmful UV rays.

As you can see, the choice is clear.  If you want clear, crisp vision without compromising today’s advanced lens technology and you want a lens material that is not only thin but lightweight, then you want Trilogy.  No matter what your vision needs are, whether work or play, sport or hobby, Trilogy lens material is the right choice.  Only Trilogy offers a unique balance of superior optics, the true combination of a thin and lightweight lens as well as an impact resistant material that exceeds the FDA requirements.  All of these benefits are available in one material -- Trilogy.
