How Our In-House Lab Edger Cuts Lenses Quick for a Perfect Fit

Finding the perfect pair of glasses should be exciting, not a hassle. At Ascent Eye Care, we believe that getting new eyewear should be a seamless experience—from selecting stylish frames to receiving your precision-crafted lenses. Our in-house lab allows us to cut lenses quickly for a precise fit—often within 24 hours.

Faster Glasses Without Sacrificing Quality

If you’ve ever been told that your glasses will take weeks to arrive, you know the frustration of waiting. With our in-house Edger, we cut and shape lenses right here in our office, minimizing delays and eliminating the need to send your prescription out to a third-party lab. For many prescriptions, this means you could have new glasses ready the next day—a game-changer for those who depend on their eyewear daily.

Our Wide Selection of Designer Frames

Glasses are more than just a tool for clear vision—they’re an extension of your style. We offer an extensive selection of designer frames from some of the world’s most sought-after brands, including:

• Ray-Ban – Timeless and effortlessly cool

• Oakley – Built for performance and durability

• Kate Spade – Feminine, chic, and colorful

• Maui Jim – Superior sun protection with unbeatable clarity

• Jimmy Choo – High fashion meets eyewear

And that’s just the beginning. Whether you prefer a bold statement piece or a classic, understated look, we help you find frames that fit both your vision needs and personal style.

High-Quality Lenses for Every Lifestyle

The right lenses can make all the difference in your daily comfort and visual clarity. We also offer a variety of high-quality lens options tailored to your specific vision correction needs. For those who need correction for a single field of vision, single vision lenses are an excellent choice. Whether you need them for reading or distance vision, these lenses provide sharp, clear focus where you need it most.

If you require correction for both near and far vision, progressive lenses offer a seamless transition between different focal points without the harsh lines of bifocals. These lenses allow you to see clearly at multiple distances, making them a great option for those who need versatility in their eyewear.

For individuals who spend long hours on digital devices, anti-fatigue lenses help reduce eye strain by providing a slight boost in power to ease the stress caused by screens. These lenses can make a noticeable difference for anyone experiencing tired or dry eyes after prolonged screen time.

If you love the outdoors, polarized lenses enhance contrast and reduce glare from reflective surfaces like water, snow, and roads. They provide exceptional visual comfort and are especially beneficial for those who spend a lot of time outside or driving in bright conditions. Every pair of lenses we craft is designed to fit your prescription and lifestyle, ensuring you experience crystal-clear vision in every situation.

Lens Coatings That Make a Difference

To maximize durability and comfort, we offer premium lens coatings, including:

• Anti-Reflective Coating – Reduces glare and improves clarity, especially for night driving

• Blue Light Filtering – Helps protect against digital eye strain

• Scratch-Resistant Coating – Extends the life of your lenses

• UV Protection – Shields your eyes from harmful ultraviolet rays

These coatings aren’t just extras—they make your glasses more functional, comfortable, and long-lasting.
