For optical clarity and durability, real glass prescription lenses set the standard. Although plastic lenses are becoming increasingly popular, glass lenses offer exceptional visual sharpness, scratch resistance, and distortion-free vision, making them ideal for individuals with strong prescriptions.
At VS Eyewear, we take pride in being one of the few optical companies that still provide high-quality real glass prescription lenses for eyeglasses. If you need high-power prescriptions, progressive lenses, or specific tints, our selection of glass lenses is designed to meet your vision needs with precision and style.
Why Choose Real Glass Prescription Lenses?
Glass has always been the premier optical material since the invention of eyeglasses. While many opticians have shifted to plastic options, VS Eyewear remains dedicated to offering real glass lenses because of their superior optical quality and durability.
Here’s why real glass lenses are the superior choice:
1️⃣ Unmatched Optical Clarity
Glass lenses offer the highest Abbe value, resulting in less distortion and sharper, high-definition vision. If you have a strong prescription, glass lenses can reduce chromatic aberration, enabling you to see more clearly and sharply at all distances.
2️⃣ Scratch Resistance & Longevity
Unlike plastic and polycarbonate lenses, real glass lenses are naturally scratch-resistant. They maintain their pristine condition for years, making them a cost-effective long-term investment.
3️⃣ Thin, High-Index Options for Strong Prescriptions
Individuals with strong prescriptions frequently face the issue of thick, heavy lenses. Our high-index glass lenses, offered in 1.60, 1.70, 1.80, and 1.90 indexes, deliver thinner and lighter options for even the most powerful prescriptions, guaranteeing both comfort and a stylish appearance.
4️⃣ Enhanced Visual Experience with Photochromic & Sunglass Tints
VS Eyewear offers glass lenses in a variety of tints and light-adaptive options, including:
✅ Clear Lenses – Traditional, crystal-clear optics.
✅ Photogray Extra & Photobrown Extra – Lenses that adjust to lighting conditions.
✅ Sunglass Tints (Gray, Green, Brown, American G-15) – Enhanced contrast and UV protection.
Real Glass Lenses vs. Plastic Lenses: A Side-by-Side Comparison

Scratch Resistance | ✅ High | ❌ Low |
Durability | ✅ Long-lasting | ❌ Prone to wear |
Weight | ❌ Heavier | ✅ Lightweight |
