Super Thin 1.67 High Index Lenses

Up to 40% thinner and lighter than standard lenses, our 1.67 Super Thin High-Index Lenses are perfect for prescriptions around ± 5.00 dioptres. They offer excellent clarity, less edge thickness and an elegant finish. 

Each lens comes with an anti-reflective coating to minimise glare, plus superior scratch resistance for daily comfort and durability.

Recommended for those with stronger prescriptions who want slim, flattering lenses that stay lightweight.   

Who Are Super Thin 1.67  Lenses Best For?

These are ideal if:

• Your prescription is around ±5.00 and above
• You want slim, flattering lenses
• You wear oversized or larger frames
• You are concerned about the cosmetic appearance of thicker lenses
• You want a great finish, without the expense of the thinnest lenses available 

Super Thin 1.67 lenses are especially popular where a slimmer lens profile improves the overall appearance, such as oversized frames, or finer metal rims.

All prescription lenses are checked and fitted by qualified dispensing opticians at our UK workshop.

Are 1.67 lenses worth it?

Are 1.67 lenses good for oversized frames?
