Thin-Tech
Making the impossible, possible
The Thin-Tech lens design creates the perfect balance between visual performance (function) and thinner lenses (fashion). Our patented lens design software analyzes frame construction, wrap angle, prescription and associated measurements to provide an optimized visual zone, while incorporating position of wear Rx compensation for the best vision. And, our patented thinning algorithm assures the thinnest lens possible for a fashionable appearance. Thin-Tech offers a significant reduction of lens center and edge thickness, thereby reducing overall weight. Customers can now choose fashionable wrap frames with the assurance of visual excellence and appearance.
