Premium spectacle lenses tailored precisely to your eyes using advanced Rodenstock technology at Richard Fantom Eyecare.

Spectacle Lenses Tailored to Your Eyes

At Richard Fantom Eyecare, we believe your vision deserves more than a standard solution. Your eyes are unique, and your spectacle lenses should be too.

While frames often get the attention, it’s your glasses lenses that truly determine how well you see, how comfortable your vision feels, and how your eyes cope with modern life. That’s why we focus on delivering expertly tailored prescription lenses using some of the most advanced technology available today.

Types of Spectacle Lenses Available

There are many types of spectacle lenses, each for your visual needs. The dispensing team will discuss your lifestyle with you to help you find the best solution.

Single Vision Lenses

Single vision lenses simply have one focus. That may be all that is needed, especially for younger eyes. A simple, effective solution for many prescriptions.

Anti-Fatigue Lenses

Anti-fatigue lenses ease the eye strain caused by long hours on screens, with a subtle boost of power that helps your eyes focus more easily between near and intermediate tasks. Ideal for anyone spending most of the day at a computer or on digital devices.

Multifocal & Varifocal Lenses

Varifocal lenses provide clear vision at multiple distances without the need to switch between glasses. Ideal for those who need support for reading, intermediate tasks, and distance vision.

Office & Occupational Lenses

Office lenses are designed for modern working environments. These lenses reduce strain caused by prolonged screen use and improve comfort throughout the day.

Prescription Sunglasses

Prescription sunglasses lenses combine vision correction with UV protection. Perfect for driving, holidays, and outdoor activities.

Myopia Control with MyCon Lenses

If your child is becoming increasingly short-sighted, early intervention is key.

MyCon lenses are an advanced solution developed by Rodenstock to help slow the progression of myopia (short-sightedness) in children.

Rather than simply correcting vision, these lenses are designed to:

  • Reduce how quickly your child’s eyesight worsens.
  • Support long-term eye health.
  • Lower the risk of future eye conditions linked to high myopia.

It’s a proactive approach to protecting your child’s vision as they grow.

Why the Right Spectacle Lenses Matter

Choosing the right lenses isn’t just about correcting your sight; it’s about improving the way you experience the world every day.

Well-designed spectacle lenses can:

  • Provide sharper, more precise vision.
  • Reduce eye strain and fatigue.
  • Improve comfort when using screens.
  • Enhance contrast, clarity, and depth perception.

Poorly matched lenses, on the other hand, can leave you feeling tired, your eyes strained, or simply not seeing as well as you should.

Our approach is simple: understand your eyes, your lifestyle, and your needs, then recommend lenses that truly work for you.

Our Personalised Lens Consultation Process

Getting the right lenses starts with understanding you.

Our process includes:

1. Eye Examination: We assess not just your prescription, but the overall health and performance of your eyes.

2. Precision Measurements: Using advanced technology, we capture detailed data about your eyes to improve lens accuracy.

3. Lifestyle Discussion: We’ll talk about how you use your eyes day-to-day, work, hobbies, driving, and screens.

4. Tailored Recommendation: We recommend the most suitable glasses lenses based on your needs.

5. Ongoing Aftercare: We’re here to ensure your lenses continue to perform as they should.

Rodenstock Lenses - Precision German Engineering

At Richard Fantom Eyecare, we work almost exclusively with Rodenstock lenses, and that’s a deliberate choice.

Rodenstock are globally recognised for its exceptional quality, precision engineering, and innovation. Their lenses are designed and manufactured in Germany, with a strong focus on accuracy, performance, and long-term comfort.

What sets them apart is their commitment to a truly personalised vision.

Truly Personalised Vision with B.I.G. EXACT® Sensitive

Traditional lenses are based on standard models of the eye. Rodenstock takes this much further.

Their award-winning B.I.G. EXACT® Sensitive lenses use detailed biometric data from your eyes, captured during your eye examination, to create lenses tailored specifically to you.

This data, gathered using advanced scanning technology, is as unique as a fingerprint.

The result?

  • More natural vision
  • Faster adaptation to new lenses
  • Improved clarity and contrast
  • A noticeably more comfortable visual experience

This level of personalisation simply isn’t available with standard lenses.

Advanced Lens Coatings for Everyday Life

Great lenses deserve equally advanced protection.

Rodenstock’s premium coatings, including LayR Xtra Clean, are designed to keep your lenses performing at their best in real-world conditions.

Benefits include:

  • Excellent scratch resistance
  • Reduced glare and reflections
  • Water and dirt-repellent surfaces
  • Easier cleaning and longer-lasting clarity

It’s the kind of detail that makes a real difference to your day-to-day experience.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can't see your question?
Get in touch with our friendly team, we're happy to help.

What are the best lenses for glasses?

The best lens depends on your prescription and needs. High-index lenses suit stronger prescriptions, varifocals suit those needing help with both distance and reading, and coatings like anti-glare or blue-light filtering add extra comfort. We'll recommend the right option after your eye test.

Which is better, spectacles or contact lenses?

Neither is universally "better"; it depends on your lifestyle, eye health, and comfort. Glasses are low-maintenance and protective, while contacts give a wider field of view and suit sport or active days. Many people use both.

How are spectacle lenses made?

Lenses are shaped from a lens blank using precision surfacing technology to match your prescription, then coated and edged to fit your chosen frame. Modern lenses can be digitally customised for sharper, more natural vision.
