The prescription package includes single-vision, bifocal and varifocal lenses, all of which are at a fixed price. More complex prescriptions are also available.
The minimalist frames are formed from titanium, cobalt and manganese alloy for robustness and flexibility. The frames, described as Ôultra-modern lookingÕ, weigh in at 3 grams.
The frames are created without the need for welds, and the hinge mechanism is designed so that the sides and front components of the frame are wound together to form a rotating hinge mechanism. The company claims that, an increase in the surface area of the hinge eliminates high wear points often found on lightweight frames with small hinge designs.
The Hi-Tech Trend collection incorporates 12 styles, including four rimless models, in 0.7mm diameter titanium, enabling the use of thinner, lightweight lenses.
