It is a smashing one off product for finding the secret for natural eyesight improvement minus the headache. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my old buddy Taylor at very last got amazing success with it.

    I just got new glasses. They are the digital, progressive. What a huge difference in clarity! I have my older glasses, and a pair of sun glasses and safety glasses. These blow them all away. They were a little more $$, but When you look to the side, it’s still clear, not burry like the others. It’s actually like putting on HD glasses! I’m sold. Thanks for explaining, very helpful.

  • @terrymcfarlane7172
    @terrymcfarlane7172 2 роки тому +1

    I had cataract surgery to correct for distance. Now I need glasses for close up (and some astygmatism). I got a pair of glasses but I swear the prescription is in the wrong place. When I read I have to lift my glasses to where the prescription is. I have been told that the prescription is put in the lense expecting readers to look down. I guess I don't look down that much. So, I thought I needed not just what seems to be less than a dime worth of prescription, prescription across the entire lower half of my glasses. But maybe this digital stuff will correct for my problem?

    • @sportrxeyewear
      @sportrxeyewear  2 роки тому

      Hi Suha! Yes, you would most certainly benefit from a hi index lens which is a denser material that reduces overall thickness in the lens. Some people with that high of an Rx strength may experience some sensitivity to the digital lens but rest assured you're stuck with nothing that doesn't work for you!

    I remember as a kid i was nearsighted and i used to be able to use my glasses to see at a distance and i was able to read and do everything with it I didn’t have to take them off to read , as i have gotten older I wasn’t able to use a single vision lenses for all and now i am using progressive lenses , do you know what that is?

    • @sportrxeyewear
      @sportrxeyewear  7 місяців тому

      Yes! Presbyopia, a refractive error that makes it hard for middle-aged and older adults to see things up close. It's very common and something that every adult will experience at some point in their lives. It's corrected with reading glasses, bifocals, and progressive lenses.

    • @L50002
      @L50002 2 місяці тому +1

      Agree. There is a big miss in the “how”. I know the how but it should be explained that a traditional stock lens has one optical center which leads to a steeper curve especially for stronger prescriptions; this in turn causes more peripheral distortion or that “fish bowl” effect. A digital lens, however, is not stock. They are custom made and surfaced to the exact dimensions of the frame and the exact measurements of the patients pupil in the frame. The custom digital lens is then created with many different optimization points across the entire surface of the lens. With many reference points, the lens can now be flatter and provide a sharper vision and clarity across the entire surface of the lens… EDGE to EDGE. The explanation can get a little technical and granular but I think it’s important to explain for those who want to know “how”. Also, cosmetically, because lenses are able to flatten they will provide a more natural adherence of the wearer’s eyes. Ultimately, this customized process of digital lenses is much more labor-intensive than grabbing a stock pre-made lens… so the cost is substantial. But you do get what you pay for. Better lenses, Better vision.

      @sportrxeyewear  3 роки тому

      That is a tough question! It is unclear if you mean 3D like 3D movies or if 3D is someone's term for a digital/freeform progressive design. I can't comment on the former, but for the latter - HD/digital/freeform progressives are the way to go! Protect your investment when it comes to progressives and get a progressive design that will cause you the least amount of grief.

  • @MartinNeep
    @MartinNeep 2 місяці тому

    I think the terminology used in this video is confusing. A ‘digital’ lens means something different across the various lens manufacturers. Certainly in the world of Zeiss, ‘digital’ does not mean single vision.
    I think the term single vision freeform would be more accurate.

    • @sportrxeyewear
      @sportrxeyewear  9 місяців тому +1

      HI! Digital surfacing is the best single-correction solution available, especially for full wraparound frames. Digital wrap compensation provides edge-to-edge clarity for the crispest, sharpest, most accurate vision possible by cutting the lens to 1/100th of a diopter vs. the standard surfacing methods of 1/4 diopter. What you get is a wider viewing area with less distortion throughout.

    • @The_Orphanizer
      @The_Orphanizer 8 місяців тому

      ​@@sportrxeyewearto maximize benefit of digital lenses, should the accuracy of the prescription also be taken down to hundredths of a diopter instead of a quarter diopter?

    • @sportrxeyewear
      @sportrxeyewear  6 місяців тому

      Nope! The lab will consider all measurements, including the Rx, pd, oc height, etc, and digitally optimize the Rx strength to the frame in which the lens is to be installed.

    • @sportrxeyewear
      @sportrxeyewear  2 місяці тому +1

      Standard single vision surfacing (the process of cutting a prescription to a lens) is the traditional way to produce a set of Rx lenses. This method cuts the lens to 1/4th of a diopter. Diopter, or dpt, is a unit of measurement that describes the optical power of a lens. For example, a prescription of -2.00 means the person is two diopters
      nearsighted, which means objects close to their eyes appear clear but objects far away appear blurry. Digital Surfacing (single vision digital) is a lens making process that removes the hard tooling limitations of traditional, or standard, surfacing. This method cuts the lens to 1/100th of a diopter, instead of 1/4th. The result is less distortion throughout in addition to a thinner lens (usually). Digital surfacing is especially important when making Rx lenses to high wrap around frames like the Oakley Flak 2.0 XL as it provides peripheral clarity when looking out the corner of ones eyes where, with standard surfacing, would result in a thicker lens with more distortion and blurriness. Hope this helps!

      @@sportrxeyewear Interesting. In talking with your customer service, a couple of your reps (Sport RX) said that for some with high astigmatism, digital cut actually feels distorted than non-digital lenses. So it is not a clear cut that with high prescription, that digital is definitely better for everyone.

    • @sportrxeyewear
      @sportrxeyewear  Місяць тому +1

      This is true and depends a lot on the frame in question, in addition to the patient's sensitivity to specific lens materials and/or base curve (wraparound frames). How the eye communicates images to the brain is very different from person to person. Everything on paper can tell an optician that choice A, B, or C will provide clarity for the patient, but every set of eyes are different. Meaning, two people with the exact same script, same lens type, & same frame might have 2 very different experiences when looking through the finished product. Some people are what we call 'non-adapt' to certain designs (i.e. lens material, curvature, tooling, manufacturing processes, etc). So while the digital design provides better optics in most cases, there are still those whose eyes cannot acclimate to this type of lens cutting process and require only standard surfacing for their glasses.
