Special Grindings
For better optical solutions at high powers
Do you want to offer a more elegant solution?
When your customer needs high plus or minus powers, special grinding may be needed to produce the lens.
Optimised optics for a better visual experience
Sometimes a special grinding is also needed to make the optics more optimised and give the customer a better visual experience.
Special grinding also provides thinner and therefore lighter and more aesthetically pleasing solutions with high powers.
Different special grindings
)
ML Grand
An image magnifier of one to nine percent. To achieve a magnification, the lens is made thicker and more curved compared to a standard lens. Recommended for: Balancing aniseikonia and for AMD patients.
)
Myosoft
Edge reduction for minus lenses with a soft overlap from optical zone to carrier. The optical zone will be adjusted according to power and frame shape. Recommended for: High minus powers or minus powers in combination with a big or curved frame.
)
Hypersoft
Thickness reduction for plus lenses with a soft overlap from optical zone to carrier. The optical zone will be adjusted according to power and frame shape. Recommended for: Plus powers approximate +3 to +6 in combination with a big frame.
)
Myolenti
Edge reduction for minus lenses with a sharp overlap from the optical zone to the convex carrier. The optical zone will be adjusted according to power and frame shape. Recommended for: Very high minus powers.
)
Myolenti Duo
Edge reduction for minus lenses with a sharp overlap from the optical zone to the convex carrier. Optical zones on both the back and front of the lens. Recommended for: Minus powers more than –30.
)
Combi Cylinder
Optimisation of lenses with a high cylinder. The cylinder power is divided into both sides of the lens. Gives a higher optical quality and better aesthetics. Recommended for: Can increase optical quality in some cases with high cylinder power. A must for cylinder power higher than -15.
Biconvex
A biconvex grinding. Recommended for: This grinding allows for an expanded power range for plus powers, but please note that the optical quality is being reduced.
)
Slab-off
Prismatic grinding is used to balance anisometropia. Slab-of is applied only to half of the lens. In general, the lower part of the lens with most minus/least plus gets a base-up prism. Recommended for: Balancing anisometropia.
