I need some help understanding whether Zeiss Smartlife Single Vision or their Clearview lenses would be better for my prescription: OD: -6.00 sphere, -.50 cylinder axis 150 OS: -5.75 sphere, -.50 cylinder axis 010

Hi, what's the difference between their clearview and precision lenses? What about stock single vision and $X (i presume this means surfaced)

After a prolonged argument with my optician, I finally gave in to having a Zeiss Precision Plus last year. When I put them on, the first thing I felt was clarity. It was superb! The rendition of colors was also very close to natural. The glare of the sun and other bright light sources was also greatly reduced. I don't think that I can ever use any lenses from any other brand.

Base on your own experience does the coating really peels of after a few months or a years and what have Zeiss done to address this issue?

@thespectaclefactory

Жыл бұрын

Hey! Thank you for your support. Zeiss have 3 different AR coatings (for plastic lenses) - Lotutec, Duravision Silver and Duravision Platinum. Lotutec is quite outdated nowadays, and yes I have had issues with this coating. Silver I have literally never used. Platinum seems pretty good, and comes with a good warranty if it does fail. But I think Hoya are ahead of everybody else when it comes to coatings. I've been to their facility and the tests they do are second to none.

Regarding DriveSafe, have you found them helpful for patients with glare issues from early cataracts? My acuity is still fine, but night driving is an issue. I'm hoping DriveSafe might buy me a little time before having to commit to surgery.

Hi, Great video!. I must admit as an optometrist myself, I'm keen to try drive safe lenses. I previously had LASIK and have some residual astigmatism. I have a problem with glare at night. How much would you charge for a reglaze into my own full plastic frame? Any fellow professional discounts would be most welcome :)

How to check authenticity of Zeiss clearview lenses?

Hello, will Zeiss ever make any new lenses for Sony?

I think Zeiss is always innovating in every aspect of lenses, so certainly. But I'm not involved with that division so I don't have any information, sorry

Do a review of Zeiss Thermo Force Polarized lens.

Anyone with experience wearing the progressive smartlife pure?

I never thought there was much difference between one brand or another since it is difficult for me to compare an older pair of glasses with a new prescription. My last pair were made with Zeiss. And they were the best glasses I owned in more than 50 years A few months after picking them up I had an accident that broke the drill mount frames, the lenses survived, but to my surprise the lenses were unusable! My new pair are from a different glass shop and they use essilor lenses….perhaps it’s their lab techs inexperience, computer glitch, the poor sales attitude or some other thing but I’m not impressed with the smaller field of view and lack of overall quality of the optics…several pinholes have appeared on the eye side of one lens that look like a flaw in the the coating I want my zeiss lenses but they are not available anywhere near me

That's cool to hear, and I'm sad that you had to go back to Essilor... you can always order Zeiss lenses from us and maybe we could even salvage those old lenses! Plenty of our clients order their Zeiss lenses from us from all parts of the world.

every type: what about a near variable?

Problem with all this is, we consumers never get to trial on these lenses prior to them cutting it for us. But by then, money is paid, and we consumers may or may not end up justifying the price paid for the marketing hype.

I just got a 24x 70 Fe Zeiss lens very disappointing

If one were to do a direct comparison between the BlueGuard lenses which already come with DuraVision Platinum AR coating vs any Zeiss lenses with DuraVision Platinum coating, is there a big difference in the reflection on the surface of the lenses? I take a lot of photos and videos and would prefer to have the least amount of glare possible so that my eyes aren’t hidden in pictures. From what I’ve read online, BlueGuard lenses have 50% less reflection when compared to lenses with the Zeiss BlueProtect coating but what about when compared with DuraVision Platinum? Do the BlueGuard lenses make any difference and do they still reflect purple? I know that they both have the same AR coating but there’s got to be some kind of difference in their appearance whether it be the color or the amount of light reflection you can see. Please help! 🤓

At 4:13: "We've also worked with Nikon, with Essilor, with Kodak, with a variety of different lens brands and all of those lens brands are excellent quality, don't get me wrong." About six months later, in your video "Lens Brand Tier List - Who Makes the BEST Spectacle Lenses???", you put Nikon lenses in the SD tier and Kodak in VHS (lowest) tier, so how are both of these brands (especially Kodak) "excellent quality"? At 5:44 of that video you say "Don't get me wrong, Seiko make good quality lenses". About Kodak, at 9:49 you say "instant VHS tier" and at 10:13 "definitely VHS tier". Also, you say that Zeiss SmartLife Lenses are, in your view, "for most people the best choice" but there are three lens types within that range (Single Vision, Digital and Progressive) and even after choosing lens type there are between 2-4 options, depending on which lens type you choose. Would you consider doing a video that looks at all of these in more detail?

Zeiss lenses are out of date.. My lens replaces all progressive lenses to the point that even those who can't wear progressive lenses are now able to wear my lens without lines in there lenses or any distortion. my lens is a N.A.L lens ( natural accommodating lenses ) with the best AR and a transition's are half the price of progressive lenses.

Send me info and samples and I'd be glad to do a review of you N.A.L lenses. Zeiss are at the forefront of tech so you can't say they are out of date. It doesn't help your argument.

I had drivesafe lenses 2 years ago had them re glazed with new prescription but new lens are terrible compared to my old ones everytime I look at lights I see blue dots in my field of vision my anti glare from specsavers doesn't do this very disappointed with something costing £150 I would expect the highest quality as drivesafe is meant to be better than standard anti glare very disappointed with the quality compared to last time

The technology hasn't changed, so I would suggest the new prescription or the fit of the frame has changed. Check the base curve new vs old in particular. I'm sure if you have a good optician, they will investigate and sort it. Don't blame the lenses as you wore them before and they were fine

@@thespectaclefactory It was same frame as last time so how can it not be the drivesafe coating when it worked last time but the new lenses have blue reflection dots clearly something has went wrong as they are not the same are you trying to say that the drivesafe coating can't be incorrectly applied I clearly don't see reflection dots on my specsavers coating which cost £30 as I said last lenes where fine re glazed with same frame with a new prescription and a new prescription wouldn't cause reflection dots clearly coming from the coating cause it's not reflecting the light properly if I wouldn't be complaining if they where the same the only reason people complain is when there is a problem your response makes my complaint somehow as if I'm being unreasonable when I am not

I didn't say that. You're not my customer, I'm just trying to give you advice. It's unlikely the lenses were made incorrectly and more likely a change in base curve or fit of the frame relating to the installation of the lenses is causing the issue. Completely up to you whether you take my advice or not! Have a great day
