Clinical Information

Clinical Information - Optical Terminology Astigmatism - This is a common condition which simply means that the cornea is not a regular symmetrical shape, meaning that one side could be longer than the other for example. This irregularity means that it is unable to focus light onto the retina (back of the eye) causing blurred vision. It is important to remember that most people have slight astigmatism but in a large amount of cases an adequate amount of light can be focused, minimising the impact on vision and therefore reducing the need for spectacle correction. In more severe cases a ‘cylindrical’ lens is prescribed (cyl) along the area (axis) where the distorted vision occurs. We understand how important clear vision is to you and as such blurred vision should always be looked at by a fully qualified optician, an accurate assessment is needed to ensure the glasses reduce blurred vision to their maximum capacity.

Gucci

Gucci eyewear and Gucci prescription eyewear: The House of Gucci, commonly known as Gucci is an iconic Italian fashion and leather goods label, which was founded in Florence in 1921 by Guccio Gucci. Less than 10 years later Gucci expanded and opened a boutique (like fellow brand Fendi) in Rome. In 1947 Gucci introduced the bamboo handle bag which is still sold by the company this day. Further down the line Gucci created its striped webbing trade mark, inspired by a saddle girth, and suede moccasin with a metal bit.

Prescription Lenses

The simplest form of spectacle is the single-vision lens, made to a single prescription to correct a particular eyesight problem. Concave lenses are used to correct short sight and convex lenses to correct long sight. Concave lenses are generally thinner in the centre than they are at the edge and convex lenses are usually thinner at the edge than at the centre. The curvature of the lens, its thickness and weight will depend on the amount of long or short sight it is designed to correct. The lens material will also influence the thickness and weight of your lenses, as will the size and shape of the spectacle frame you choose. Traditionally, spectacle lenses were made of glass but most lenses are now lightweight plastic and there is a wide range of materials available to suit your prescription and lifestyle.

In fiction and reality, glasses have been used to express personality – often used as a shorthand to relay characteristics as well as performing their functional role of helping wearers see the world clearly.
