Did you know over 80% of the information we receive
through our senses is provided
by our eyesight?

As the only link between that information and your eyes, eyeglass
lenses play an essential role. The greater their transparency, the
more information they transmit.
Transparency:
Where research meets demand
It is often assumed that a window pane, the windshield of a car or
your eyeglass lenses are completely transparent. The truth is they
all produce unpleasant reflections from surrounding lights.
For instance, standard eyeglass lenses only transmit 92% of visible
light. The rest is pure reflection: mirror effects, double vision,
glare...
Reflections:
Harmful to your vision
In addition to hiding your eyes, the reflection on your lenses is a
major source of daily eyestrain and discomfort.
Crizal lenses:
Improving your eye comfort
The Crizal eyeglass lens treatment is the result of a high-tech
manufacturing process unique to Essilor. It provides the best
transparency and the most efficient protection. Applied to plastic
lenses, it combines three important benefits: transparency, scratch
resistance and easy cleaning.
