Reliable, at real volume.
Single vision doesn't mean off-the-shelf here — every lens still runs through our digital surfacing process for a natural image, across the widest prescription range in the catalog.
Customized digital surfacing, on every pair.
Even at single vision volume, every lens is calculated on the same digital surfacing process as the rest of our range — for a natural image rather than a generic stock curve, across a broad prescription range.
- Corrects one distance — nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism
- Digitally surfaced, not stock-molded
- Broad prescription range
- Available across all standard materials
Built for how it's actually worn.
Distance vision
Calculated for clarity at range — driving, and everyday distance tasks.
Intermediate vision
Tuned for comfortable mid-range focus — screens and desk work.
Near vision
Sharp close-up focus for reading and fine detail work.
Every lens carries its own fitting data.
The reference markings on a finished lens — optical center, pupil height, prism reference lines — aren't decoration. They're how the lens is checked against the individual fitting data it was calculated from, before it ships.

Single Vision Rx is available across every standard material, plus photochromic and blue-light-filtering variants.

Single vision vs. progressive.
General guidance for advising customers — not every case fits neatly, but this covers most.
| Single Vision | Progressive | |
|---|---|---|
| Vision zones corrected | One distance only | Near, intermediate & far in one lens |
| Best suited for | Simple, single-task prescriptions | Presbyopia, typically age 40+ |
| Adaptation | Immediate, no adjustment needed | Takes some time to adapt |
| Visible dividing line | N/A — single zone | None — seamless design |
This is general guidance, not a substitute for an eye exam — the right lens for a given customer still comes down to their actual prescription and daily routine.
