Lens Blanks

Lens blanks are the starting point for crafting high-quality eyewear, offering a clear foundation for prescription lenses that meet unique vision needs.

At VISION EASE, we offer a range of lens blanks in various materials in finished single vision, semi-finished single vision, multi-focals, etc. designed to meet different optical and lifestyle needs. Our blanks are crafted for durability, optical accuracy, and comfort, ensuring that your lenses deliver clear vision and long-lasting performance. From single vision to progressive lenses, our lens blanks provide the flexibility to create lenses for every type of prescription.

Lens Availability

Continua® Lenses

Continua hard coated single vision polycarbonate lenses provide a superior combination of scratch resistance and anti-reflective coating compatibility for long lasting durability.

  • Highly abrasion-resistant thermal cured hard coating
  • Glass-like hard coating provides an optimal base for antireflective coating applications
  • Twice the scratch resistance of Trivex and plastic lenses
  • 100% UV protection

Novel Decentered Progressive Lenses

Our Novel polycarbonate lenses are designed for optimal placement, allowing natural head and eye movement for comfortable, clear vision. An exceptionally smooth power transition enhances visual comfort, while corridor insets that vary by base curve support convergence and provide expansive binocular viewing at intermediate and near distances. With a decentered lens design that minimizes common cut-out issues, these lenses are suitable for a wide range of wearers and frame styles. Available in clear, VE Photo, and VE Polarized, they deliver quality and versatility in any environment.

Tegra® Lenses

Tegra hard coated single vision polycarbonate lenses with a tough and universal scratch-resistant coating designed for even your most active patients, like kids and on-the-go adults. With a high and consistent Bayer rating, you can count on Tegra to provide an extra durable scratch resistant coating that stays put longer. Tegra is compatible with most anti-reflective coatings. Give your patients the ultimate vision package, and allow for an added selling point.

VISION EASE Hard Coated and Uncoated Lenses

A hard coating is a clear, scratch-resistant film applied to a lens for enhanced durability, longevity, and visual quality, essential for materials like polycarbonate. These lenses come pre-coated due to their scratch-prone nature, requiring the lab to reapply a hard coating after removing the backside layer during processing. Two application methods are used: Spin Coating, a fast, UV-cured process that sprays coating on the backside of lenses, allowing tinting and good backside protection but less durability than other methods, and Dip Coating, a longer manual process providing uniform, highly durable scratch resistance on both sides and better compatibility with anti-reflective (AR) coatings, though it is not tintable. Vision Ease hard coated lenses are available in plastic 1.50, polycarbonate and high index 1.67.

Uncoated lenses, or naked lenses, are lenses without surface coatings, offering natural transparency and an unfiltered view. These lenses are budget-friendly, easy to maintain with basic cleaning solutions, and widely available, appealing to those seeking simplicity and cost-effectiveness. However, uncoated lenses are more susceptible to scratches, lack anti-glare and additional UV protection, and may require more frequent cleaning due to smudges and fingerprints. The absence of coatings can lead to reduced clarity in certain conditions and increased glare from artificial light sources, potentially affecting night driving and prolonged screen use. Vision Ease uncoated lenses are available in plastic 1.50, polycarbonate and high index 1.67.

 

VISION EASE Aspheric Lenses

Aspherical lenses feature a surface that varies slightly from a spherical shape, allowing for gradual curvature changes from the center to the edges. This design reduces edge distortion, offering a smoother, more natural visual experience. Aspherical lenses are thinner and lighter than traditional lenses, decreasing magnification effects on the eyes and enhancing peripheral vision, making them ideal for wearers seeking improved visual quality and aesthetics. While they have a higher cost and may pose adaptation challenges, they are preferred for those with high myopia or hyperopia prescriptions, people who prioritize visual quality, appearance-conscious individuals, and long-term glasses wearers, as they reduce visual distortion, minimize eye fatigue, and provide greater comfort. Vision Ease aspheric lenses are available in polycarbonate and high index 1.67.

 

VISION EASE Spherical Lenses

A spherical lens has at least one curved, symmetrical surface resembling a sphere, designed to converge or diverge light. Depending on its shape, it can be convex (focusing light to a point, commonly used in magnifying glasses, farsighted eyeglasses, and cameras) or concave (spreading light, used in nearsighted eyeglasses and certain optical instruments). Spherical lenses are thicker, especially at higher prescriptions, making them bulkier at the edges. They are defined by their focal length, curvature, and diameter, which influence their optical properties, making them essential in systems like microscopes, telescopes, cameras, and lasers for light manipulation. Vision Ease spherical lenses are available in polycarbonate.

VISION EASE Decentered Lenses

Optical decentering shifts the lens’s optimal focus point from the geometric center to align with the eye in high-wrap frames, resulting in sharper, distortion-free vision. A decentered lens is thicker toward one edge and enhances visual clarity while reducing eye strain. Vertical decentration (or Seg Drop) moves the reading zone of bifocal lenses downward to align with the optical center height, while horizontal decentration adjusts the lens side-to-side to match the patient’s pupillary distance, ensuring optimal alignment with the visual axis. Vision Ease decentered lenses are available in polycarbonate.

VISION EASE 1.50 Lenses

VISION EASE 1.50 Semi-Finished Single Vision Uncoated Lenses are a great general use plastic lens that are light and durable. A versatile lens, VISION EASE 1.50 Lenses will fit virtually any patient, lifestyle or frame.

VISION EASE 1.67 Lenses

VISION EASE 1.67 MR7 Semi-Finished Single Vision Uncoated Lenses are up to 30 percent lighter and thinner than standard plastic lenses and are compatible with a wide range of frame styles. VISION EASE 1.67 MR7 & MR10 SFSV Uncoated Lenses provide superior optics and excellence scratch resistance.
