A simple guide to how thinner lenses reduce edge thickness
Each row starts with the standard thickness for that prescription strength, then shows how the edge reduces as you move to thinner indices. The stronger the prescription, the more noticeable the difference becomes.
Lens thickness comparison by prescription strength
This guide starts with the standard edge thickness for each example prescription, then applies the thinner lens reductions to that edge. The centre is shown as staying slim, while the outer edge is where the visible bulk changes most.
How to read this guide
Use each row left to right. The first lens shows the starting thickness for that prescription strength. The next three lenses show how much slimmer the outer edge can look when you move to a thinner index.
Important
This is a simple visual guide, not an exact lab drawing. Final thickness still depends on prescription type, frame size, frame shape, pupil position and lens design.
Fatigue Free explained in a way normal people will actually understand
A plain-English explanation of what Fatigue Free means and when it may be worth asking about.
Fatigue Free
Close task comfortFatigue Free lenses add a small boost of power toward the bottom of the lens to make close tasks feel more relaxed. They can suit people with a very small reading addition who want a little extra help for screens, paperwork or prolonged close work.
- Helps with eye strain
- Useful for close work
- Small reading additions
Typical additions
GuideUsually considered where the reading addition is small, such as +0.25, +0.50 or +0.75. If you are unsure, it is better to check with your prescription first.
- Prescription dependent
- Ask before ordering
Who Fatigue Free may suit
Fatigue Free is for people with a small reading addition who want a little extra support for screens, paperwork and other close tasks without stepping straight into a fuller occupational-style setup. It is not for everyone, so prescription details still matter.
Good next step
If you are unsure whether Fatigue Free is suitable, upload your prescription and we can advise based on your reading addition, working distance and frame choice.
