Shamir Creation® Progressive Lenses. Flat and Exact.
Shamir Creation
Developed with patented Freeform Optics™, providing design resolution up to six times more accurate than standard cast PALs. Shamir Creation progressive lenses, introduced in an extended base curve selection (up to 20 percent more than a leading competitor) provides flatter, cosmetically superior lenses (up to 40 percent flatter). This extensive base curve selection not only produces flatter lenses, but also results in an optimally divided prescription range that guarantees the best optical performance for each prescription.
Freeform Optics
The semi-finished PALs produced using previous technologies require the use of ceramic molds
(also known as mechanical molds). These mechanical molds replicate the progressive lens design with up to 6/100 diopters. Freeform Optics patented software bypasses the ceramic molds and creates digital molds (glass molds). Freeform Optic molds provide up to six times more resolution.
Cosmetically Superior
Shamir Creation progressive lenses are available in six different base curves (up to 20 percent more than leading competitive progressive lenses). As a result, the prescription range is optimally divided between these base curves in order to guarantee the best optical performance for each prescription. The end result: superior optical quality in a flatter and thinner lens (up to 40 percent flatter). |
