Single Vision Lenses: Clarity Tailored to Your Needs
Single vision glasses stand as a precise solution for correcting vision issues at a specific distance. Unlike bifocals or progressives, which accommodate different prescriptions for near and far vision, single vision lenses maintain a consistent prescription across the entire lens. These lenses are particularly effective for addressing common conditions such as nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia), or astigmatism.
Varieties of Single Vision Glasses:
- Distance Glasses: Prescribed for those struggling with distant vision, featuring concave lenses to correct nearsightedness.
- Reading Glasses: Recommended for individuals facing challenges with close-up focus, equipped with convex lenses to address farsightedness.
- Computer Single Vision Glasses: Specially crafted for intermediate distances, these glasses reduce eye strain during computer use. Please note that they do not cater to distance or close-up vision, requiring your specific "intermediate" prescription for ordering.
Single vision glasses cater to individuals needing correction for a specific distance, making them suitable for various activities such as driving, reading, or working on a computer.
Choosing the Right Material:
When it comes to unifocal glasses, two primary materials exist: mineral and organic glasses. Modern lenses are predominantly made of organic or plastic, providing advantages such as lightweight, break resistance, adaptability to any frame, and thinness for high corrections. Mineral glasses, although durable, are heavier and not break-proof, limiting comfort and safety, especially for children. At Visionet, we exclusively offer plastic lenses on our website. However, we can fulfill requests for mineral glasses upon inquiry.
Plastic lenses open up a realm of possibilities for add-ons at affordable prices, including Satin anti-reflective treatments, anti-blue light layers for screen protection, and more. These enhancements not only extend the lifespan of your glasses but also enhance your visual experience.
Please note that rimless frames are only suitable for glass thicknesses of 1.6 or 1.67, as the extreme thickness or thinness of index 1.5 or 1.74 cannot be accommodated.
Sunglasses Options for Unifocal Lenses:
Explore our wide range of tint options for unifocal lenses, ranging from UV1 (very light tint) to UV4 (very dark tint suitable for high altitudes or extreme sunlight). Opt for a gradual tint in various colors like grey, brown, green, orange, blue, pink, etc. You can also add a stylish mirror effect to make your prescription sunglasses truly stand out!
Photochromic Lenses for Ultimate Comfort and Style:

These lenses darken in response to sunlight and revert to a clear state indoors or in low-light conditions.
