Lenses

Once you’ve selected your frames, Optical FX’s optometrist Joe Maccarone will help you choose the right lenses for you. We have a great selection of single vision and multifocal progressive lenses all with varying benefits, so you’re bound to find lenses that will suit your eye needs and lifestyle.

What you can be assured of, is that we use only the finest quality including Nikon, Essilor and Hoya.

Depending on your prescription, you can choose from various thinner or “high index” lenses. They can be up to 40% thinner, flatter and 30% lighter than standard plastic lenses. At Optical FX we can advise which lenses will best match your glasses.

Prescription Sunglasses

At Optical FX we carry a large range of fashion and prescription sunglasses. We can advise which sunglasses are suitable for your prescription. Some sunglasses are not made to have a thicker optical lens fitted into them and may buckle and pop the lens out at a later time. Sunglasses that wrap around the face may create a “goldfish bowl effect” and cause you headaches unless a special distortion-reducing lens is used.

Please come in and inspect our Maui Jim range. These are the ultimate high quality, non-distorting, fashion and prescription sunglasses available in today’s market. All lenses are polarised, high index, mirror coated on front and multicoated on the back surface to give your eyes maximum comfort outdoors. Optical FX is proud to be the only “gold” Maui Jim stockist in Brisbane CBD.
