What types of lenses are used for XP Health prescription eyeglasses and sunglasses?
We use digitally surfaced lenses for all our prescription lenses. Our lenses are sourced from world-class vendors such as Hoya. Digitally surfaced lenses offer a variety of benefits to our members, such as precision crafting based on the member's prescription and frame choice. This process allows for customization at a micro-level, optimizing the lens for the specific wearer. This translates to superior vision clarity and sharper vision across the entire lens, including the periphery. Digital surfacing can also correct for aberrations more effectively than traditionally made lenses.
Are XP Health lenses high-quality lenses?
Yes! XP Health lenses are of the highest quality. Our manufacturing partner conducts extensive research and uses cutting-edge technology to refine their processes and deliver the very best services and products possible.
What is UV protection? Which types of lenses do you use for these?
Ultraviolet (UV) rays come from the sun and can damage the eyes over time. Products labeled as having UV protection must block a significant amount of UVA and UVB radiation. They must block 95% of UVA (315-380 nm) and 99% of UVB (280-315 nm) radiation. There are many benefits to UV protection. These include:
- Protection from eye damage
- Reduced eye strain and discomfort
- Enhanced visual clarity
Polycarbonate lens material naturally provides 100% UVA and UVB protection due to the material's inherent properties. High-index 167 and high-index 174 lenses are also manufactured to provide 100% UVA and UVB protection.
What is advanced anti-glare protection? Which type of lenses do you use for these?
Glare and reflections on your eyeglass lens can cause eye strain and discomfort and reduce visual clarity. Anti-glare or anti-reflective coating is a sophisticated, multi-layered application designed to significantly reduce these reflections on the lens surface. This coating is meticulously applied during the lens manufacturing process. Our state-of-the-art anti-reflective coating sets the industry standard for durability and scratch resistance. It includes oleophilic and hydrophobic layers to repel oil and water, respectively, alongside multiple layers of metal oxides. Each layer varies in thickness and composition and is specifically engineered to neutralize particular wavelengths of light. This ensures unparalleled clarity and visual comfort.
