While the looks are important, when it comes to eyeglasses, your Lenses are the most important part, hands down. However, experience has shown that most eyeglass wearers spend a considerable time choosing frames; but not much of an effort or research is done in choosing the right kind of lenses. 

"The medical term of your eyeglasses is "Vision-Aids" - something that helps improve your vision. Eyeglasses should be treated as such." Says Dr. Khan, Optometrist at Sight N' Steps. "We live in the most technologically advance environment in the history of mankind. 50 years ago, our eyes did not go through hours and hours of direct intense light being beamed at them through computers, TV's and smart phone screens, so they are not used to this harsh treatment. Thanks to the advancement of technology in the area of vision-aid, we can now choose lenses suitable to our daily lifestyle."

For Example,

• Nikon Home & Office Lenses are specifically designed to deliver high quality vision while working on computers or reading charts;
• Anti-Reflective Coating is designed to reduce the glare from entering your eyes, and most high quality AR Coatings like Nikon's SeeCoat Blue softens the light into a soft green color before it enters your eyes;
• Essilor Varilux S Series Protected by 13 patents, Varilux S series innovations provide the wearer with stability of vision in motion (reduction of swim effect up to 90%), wide angle vision (widening of binocular fields of vision up to 50%) and reflex vision (faster visual reaction time).

"We ought to make use of these new technologies to improve our daily lives. Not investing sufficient time into the types of lenses we choose is not a choice anymore" Says Dr. Khan with convincing hand gestures to ensure I get the point.
