How To Replace Costa Lenses Yourself

You can choose driving goggles.

The goggles partly filter the far-light from the car. Products sold online include glasses with yellow lenses and yellow translucent shades that clip onto car shades. Shades block out oncoming far-light, while glasses prevent rearview mirror glare from vehicles behind. Most of the light emitted by car headlights is short-wavelength ultraviolet and blue light. The yellow polyester blocks them while allowing the longer wavelengths of red and green light to pass through, making the headlights softer when seen through the goggles without reducing the brightness of the road and the surrounding environment.


What Are High Index Lenses?

High index lenses are composed of a special plastic that is good at bending light. With this feature, high index lenses can be much thinner than standard lenses while having the same prescriptions.

So, polycarbonate lenses vs high index lenses, what are their differences?



The nose pad

When you're shopping for a driver's glasses, you can't ignore a nose pad. Choose one that is soft and elastic. This way, it won't make your noses feel depressed or uncomfortable.

When you're in an optician's shop, ask an optician for help in adjusting your glasses or changing the frames. Think about if the frames fit or are a little heavy. Suggest you can change to another pair. You should try a suitable and not heavy frame. You go back to the eyewear store and ask a professional to shape your frame in accordance with the outline of your ears again carefully. If you feel a little uncomfortable when you try it on, adjust it.



Bifocal Lens

Bifocal lenses have two observation areas separated by visible lines, a larger observation distance area, and a smaller reading area. It may take some time for people who are wearing bifocal glasses for the first time to get used to the lenses. This is mainly due to learning how to move the eyes between the observation distance area and the reading area. Some people will also find that there will be an 'image jump' phenomenon at the visible line between the distance and the reading area, especially for those with limited mobility, who must look down when walking. The best way to get used to bifocals is to wear them as much as possible.


What Is Plastic Lens?

In the above part, we have introduced what polycarbonate lenses are. In this section, we will show you what the plastic lens is.

Plastic lenses are light. With this feature, plastic lenses are popular because they will not be heavy inside the glasses frame and permit for an easy fit in any type of glasses frame. In addition, plastic glasses are cheap and easy to obtain in desired amounts. So, they are affordable for most people. Plastic lenses are very durable. So, they do not shatter easily on impact which makes it a great choice for individuals who are active or tend to drop their glasses often.

However, compared with other lens materials, plastic lenses are usually thick due to their low index of refraction. The soft feature of plastic glasses makes them susceptible to scratching from a sharp object and why scratch-resistant coating is applied to form an additional protective layer. Plastic lenses do not provide ultraviolet protection.
