Our Salem facility has an in house optical lab featuring the Gerber-Coburn KAPPA system (shown on left). This system has a patented 3-D edging system which allows the most precise frame tracing, lens mapping and edge sizing ever. Your lenses fit better into your frame with this system! We also specialize in allowing our patients to use their existing frames for new lenses without having to give up their frame! We also have the ability at our Salem office to cut down most lenses into a new frame when our patients have a broken frame and need a quick resolution of their problem. This re-edging typically takes our lab around 20 minutes.
Near the age of 40, a condition known as Presbyopia develops. It’s a natural part of aging which makes it difficult to focus on things close. Since the days of Ben Franklin, the solution to this has been bifocals. These types of lenses are now outdated. Not only do they have an unsightly line, they also require you to pick your chin up to read . However, the biggest limitation is that there is no clear vision at intermediate distances ( such as a car dashboard, shelve at a grocery store, bank ATM machine, computer screen ). During the 1900's, trifocal lenses were created in an attempt to give some limited intermediate vision by placing two lined sections in the lens. These were hard to walk in and required significant up and down head movement for their use.
Have you ever wished you had better sight at night? Does lighting from oncoming vehicles cause difficulty with your night driving? Do you see glare from fluorescent lights or computer screens? Today's Super Anti-Reflection coatings (CRIZAL™) are the answer to your problem. Super A-R is a premium multi-layer coating for spectacle lenses which includes quartz-like hardness and provides maximum glare reduction. Your lenses also gain a superior scratch coating in the process! The Super A-R coating is easier to clean than the older A-R coatings. They even make you look better because people see you when they look into your glasses instead of a mirror-like reflection. Our Super A-R carries an extended warrantee against scratching!
