[Review]Have you gotten the right pair of lenses for your eyes?

I was at the Integrated Eyecare Centre, Vivocity for an eyecheck. The reason? Getting my eyes checked to make a pair of new CRIZAL LENSES SPECTACLES!

Beyond aesthetics, spectacle lenses plays a fundamental, if not more vital role. Not only should you choose a nice spectacle frame, the lenses of your spectacles should also be carefully selected such that it does not affect your vision. You may not realize this, but spectacle wearers spend two-thirds of their lives seeing the world though their lenses.

Shumin(right) & HuiTing(centre) from Vibes Communications explained to me the benefits of crizal lenses by Essilor.

Essilor is founded in 1972. It offers a wide range of lenses to correct myopia, hyperopia, presbyobia & astigmatism. The company has subsidaries in more than 30 countries and is represented in more than 100 countries with major production in Europe, North & Central America & Asia.

When inferior lenses are chosen, spectacle wearers encounter the five enemies of clear vision. These 5 enemies can affect vision in the long term as you suffer perpetual discomfort, develop eye fatigue & eye strain and other eye problems. Moreover, asthetically, if your inferior lenses which looked dirty & highly reflective will also make you look dull as it blocks your eyes no matter how perfect the frame is.

There are a few types of crizal lenses.

My pair of latest advanced Crizal Lenses by Essilor are the only lenses in the market that can eliminate all the five enemies of clear vision, while enabling the wearer to maintain a pleasant disposition:

Enemy #1. Reflections

Reflection-RGB

No reflections

Crizal-Glare

Crizal lenses eliminate reflections and 'ghost' images caused by artificial light.

Look at the two lenses above, are you able to tell which is the crizal lens?



If you guess the one on the left, you are correct!

Enemy #2. Water

Water-RGB

No Water

Crizal-Droplets

Crizal lenses feature hydrophopic(Water-repellent) properties that prevent water from lingering and spreading across the lenses. Water droplets will simply roll off the lenses. Yongwei used to demonstrate how his perspiration chalked up on his lenses. He no longer experience that now.

Now, you can engage in water sports like sailing or boating without fretting over blurred vision. Oh yes, rainy days as well!

Enemy #3. Smudges

This enemy is the most irritating of all. You know how sometimes eye lashes gets into your eyes and it itches so much you have to rub it out? After you did that you realize your lenses become smudged with your own thumbprints? Crizal lenses' in-built smudge-repellent feature eliminates the occurrence of oily smudges or dirty spots.


Smudge-RGB

No Smudges

Crizal-Smudge

I was testing it out and it works!

Enemy #4. Dust

Crizal lenses have also been designed to resist dust accumulation because it have anti-static properties that help to keep dust and grit particles at bay. Convenient and simple to keep lenses clean and free of blurriness!

Dust-RGB

No Dust

Crizal-Dust

Look at the anti-static demonstration. The little styrofoam balls represents dust particles.

In this picture, the 'dust particles' gets stucked on the lens.

Look at the crizal lens, no particles at all! :)

Enemy #5. Scratches

Lenses surfaces are highly susceptible to scratches, which adversely affect vision quality. Crizal lenses provide unrivalled scratch resistance, protecting one's lenses at all times to ensure optimal visual clarity, hence reducing eye strains due to blurriness.

Scratches-RGB

No Scratches

Crizal-Scratches

Back to my eyecheck. The was an increase in my degree! *SCREAM* Using the correct lenses are essential to reduce such issues from happening. The rooms at Integrated Eyecare Centre are spacious and clean. The equipment they used are also clean, smell-free and well maintained. *Encountered a smelly & yellowish chin supporter before. YUCKS*

The 'E' looked like 'C' or 'B', the 'P' looked like 'F' from my vision. That was how bad my eyesight is.
