Hoya has a lens design for every requirement
Hoya has built a solid reputation in the development of lens designs, and plays a leading role in this field. To satisfy the changing lifestyles of increasingly discerning consumers, Hoya lenses are designed entirely from the customer’s viewpoint. Natural vision and confidence take precedence in Hoya’s design objectives, which also aim to achieve the best possible correction available for the eye.
We’re confident there’s a Hoya lens design available to meet all your requirements; whether the lenses are purely for a specific function such as reading or driving, or to see clearly at all distances and in all directions without any limitations. The highest quality lens combined with advice from your optician means that you are always guaranteed the best possible lens choice for you.
Near-sightedness: Faraway images appear blurred while close images are reasonably in focus; corrected with ‘minus’ power convex-lenses. Far-sightedness: Faraway images are reasonably in focus and close images appear blurred; corrected with ‘plus’ power concave lenses.Astigmatism: The eyes look in two different directions at right angles to each other; corrected with the application of a cylindrical power.
Presbyopia: Usually occurs for those people aged 40+. They find it increasingly difficult to read, as the lens of the eye becomes less flexible and focusing on nearby objects becomes difficult. In the single vision category, reading glasses can be the solution.
Countless innovations have allowed the Single Vision design to be perfected
For instance, aspheric lenses (Nulux design) provide a thinner lens with a larger, distortion free field of vision, whilst double aspheric lenses (Nulux EP design) guarantee focused vision over their entire surface of the lens in all directions.
Hoya Single Vision lenses are available in different lens designs:
Hilux spheric: features a single central radius on the front surface and, depending on the prescription, different radii on the back surface.
Nulux aspheric: the radius leading from the centre of the front surface to its edge becomes longer, and the radii form a purer focal point. This results in less deformation in the periphery of the lens.
Nulux EP bi-aspheric: calculated and produced according to the FreeForm principle, which allows each detail of the lens to be precisely determined to create a synergy between correction and natural sight.
Superior progressive designs offering exceptional comfort
A progressive design or multifocal lens provides excellent vision at all distances. The various correction areas partially overlap into each other, so that the discomfort of any sudden transition into each segment is eliminated.
The latest technology
In recent years, Hoya has carried out a great deal of research into perfecting our progressive lenses. The latest developments concentrate on increasing the stability and focus of our lenses in all directions. Our transmission-based design technology, for instance, allows natural sight to be organically simulated.
The best example of the latest generation progressive design is Hoyalux iD, the optimum progressive lens choice for customers who require the very best in iD FreeForm Technology™, which is designed to promote the wearer’s mobility and react to the behaviour of eyes. It provides balanced correction at all distances and in all directions.
No matter what correction power you need, you can be sure that a modern progressive lens from Hoya will allow you to see clearly and enjoy the view!
Hoya’s high performance progressive lenses:
Hoyalux iD: the latest generation of progressive lens designs that guarantees stability and focus.
Hoyalux Summit Pro: the progressive lens that corrects the change from far to near vision in a completely natural way.
Hoyalux Summit CD: Utlising the same calculation technology as Hoyalux Summit Pro, Hoyalux Summit CD is especially designed for small, fashionable frames and guarantees natural vision at all distances.
Hoyalux Wide: the progressive lens with an extra-wide reading area, compared to standard progressive lenses.
Hoyalux GP: Hoya’s standard progressive lens.
The ideal choice for occupational use
These are lenses designed for indoor activities such as computer use and reading. They guarantee focused, distortion free vision in all conditions and help prevent tiredness and irritation in your eyes, as well as reduce headaches.
Intermediate Close lenses are available in the following lens designs:
Hoyalux Tact: highly suitable for office activities. This design features wide, distortion free reading and intermediary areas, with some distance vision.
AddPower: the perfect lens for relaxed reading with extra zoom!
