Prismatic Optical Lenses in high powers

These Prismatic Optical Glasses are available in very high powers of +6.00, +8.00, +10.00 and +12.00

They are superior quality, hand ground, which means they are distortion free, offering a crystal clear magnification.

Even if you look through the edges of the lens, the image is clear. This means the focal point is much larger than normal reading glasses, and may help people with conditions such as macular degeneration, who rely on more of their peripheral vision to see.
