A guide to lenses

The type of lens you’ll need depends on a variety of things such as your lifestyle, job, preference, and vision needs. Have a look below at the lenses we offer, including their benefits and prices, to help you decide which lenses might be the right ones for you.

Single-vision lenses

This type of lens has just one prescription that covers the entire lens. Typically for people with short or long sight, who just need glasses for driving, reading or working at a computer. All Specsavers glasses come with standard single-vision lenses plus a scratch-resistant treatment.

Bifocal lenses

If you need separate glasses for distance vision and reading, then bifocal lenses might be an option for you as they’re designed to accommodate two different prescriptions – usually distance and up-close vision.

Progressive lenses

These lenses accommodate more than two vision types, and unlike the clear distinction on bifocals, they have different sections for viewing close-up, far away and everything in between.

Lens options to suit your lifestyle

You can also choose extra lens treatments and options to protect or enhance your glasses.
