Spectacle Lenses
NIKON LENSES MATERIALS
| Aspheric Design : Innovation for comfort and aesthetics |
|---|
Since the introduction of its first photographic lens elements in 1966, Nikon has been a leader in lens technology. The development of "spherical lenses" is regarded as one of Nikon's greatest achievments. Aspherical lenses are made thin and slim while minimizing distortions and aberrations, which are common with thicker spherical lenses.
There are many new developments in spectacle lens technology. Thinner lighter lenses. A variety of lens coatings. New types of light sensitive lenses. And lots more – all designed to improve your vision and make your spectacles more comfortable to wear.
Thinner lens, better looks : Thinner than standard plastic lenses, so your eyes get all attention they deserve. The slim aspherical profile is a perfect match for fashionable frames.
- Up to 1/3 lighter for additional comfort
- Up to 1/3 thinner than a regular plastic lens
- Up to 45% flatter for a slim profile that looks great on you
- Low magnification ,a softer,more natural look for your eyes
