{"product_id":"1-70-high-index-glass-lenses","title":"1.70 High Index Glass Lenses","description":"\u003cp\u003e1.70 High Index Glass Lenses are eyeglass lenses made from glass with a refractive index of 1.70, which is a material engineered to bend light more effectively, resulting in thinner lenses than standard glass. They are a good option for people with strong prescriptions for nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism, as the increased index of refraction allows for a more compact lens design, leading to improved comfort and aesthetics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"otQkpb\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey characteristics of 1.70 high index glass lenses:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"otQkpb\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"otQkpb\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong class=\"Yjhzub\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"N9Q8Lc\"\u003eThinner and lighter:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"N9Q8Lc\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e The 1.70 High Index Glass Lenses with a higher refractive index allows for less lens material to achieve the same prescription, making them lighter and thinner than standard lenses.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"KsbFXc U6u95 Lem6n\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"T286Pc\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"Yjhzub\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"N9Q8Lc\"\u003eFor strong prescriptions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"N9Q8Lc\"\u003e The 1.70 High Index Glass Lenses are especially beneficial for people with high refractive errors, typically those with prescriptions stronger than +\/- 6.00, to reduce the \"coke bottle\" effect of thick lenses.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"T286Pc\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"Yjhzub\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"N9Q8Lc\"\u003eMore reflective:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"N9Q8Lc\"\u003e Being a glass material with a high index, these lenses are more reflective than standard lenses, so an anti-reflective (AR) coating is highly recommended to reduce glare and improve clarity.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"T286Pc\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"Yjhzub\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"N9Q8Lc\"\u003eComfortable:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"N9Q8Lc\"\u003e The 1.70 High Index Glass Lenses reduced weight makes them more comfortable to wear, especially for extended periods, and helps prevent them from sliding down the nose.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"T286Pc\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"Yjhzub\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"N9Q8Lc\"\u003eAesthetics:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"N9Q8Lc\"\u003e 1.70 High Index Glass Lenses provide a more natural look by minimizing the magnification or minification of the eyes and sitting closer to the face.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca title=\"High Index Lens Thickness Chart\" href=\"https:\/\/opticampus.opti.vision\/tools\/thickness.php\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #ffff00;\"\u003eCLICK HERE TO GET APPROXIMATE LENS THICKNESS INFORMATION WITH YOUR RX\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VS Eyewear","offers":[{"title":"clear","offer_id":50197487321226,"sku":"RL-HIGLS-170","price":230.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0776\/4246\/5418\/files\/1.70highindex_439c3370-17ca-47be-8704-3552e6517bf8.jpg?v=1789418980","url":"https:\/\/vseyewear.com\/products\/1-70-high-index-glass-lenses","provider":"VS Eyewear","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
