ABOUT THE FRAME

The Pince-nez is a vintage design that became iconic when Teddy Roosevelt started rocking the style in the early 20th century. We've revived this classic in modern colors that makes reading glasses cool again. They clip comfortably on the bridge of your nose when you need to see near, and nimbly fold into a pocket when you don't. They're great when you need a little help reading the menu at a restaurant or skimming through a magazine.

Available colors: Dark Tortoise, Cognac Tortoise, Butterscotch, Simply Red, Vintage Crystal, Jet Black

PRESCRIPTION OPTIONS

Single Vision / Bi-focals / Progressives

Single vision lenses are needed if you require correction for one field of vision, either distance or near vision (reading). Vint & York’s lenses consist of premium quality polycarbonate Rx lenses. Protective coatings such as high quality anti–scratch and anti-reflective coating are included in all of our lenses. Polycarbonate lenses are strong and impact resistant, making them safe to wear.

Bifocal lenses accommodate by correcting one's distance and near vision with one pair of lenses. The two fields of vision are typically separated by a line across the lens. Our Bi Focal lenses are available with many of our optical frames. We offer high index materials as well as a blended bi focal for those who prefer no sharp line. All of our lenses include UVA/UVB protective coatings as well as high quality anti-scratch and anti reflective coatings.

Vint & York offers Progressive Lenses that are available with many of our optical frames. Progressive lenses are a multifocal lens to help correct three fields of vision with no line separating. They correct distance, intermediate as well as reading vision in one lens. We offer Digital Progressive lenses as well as high index material progressive lenses. All of our lenses include UVA/UVB protective coatings and high quality anti–scratch and anti-reflective coating.

LENS OPTIONS

Clear / Light Responsive

If you want to receive frames with no Rx, you have two options. Optical frames will include anti-reflective polycarbonate lenses when you choose the option “I plan on wearing blank lenses”. The option “I plan on replacing the lenses”are recommended if your optician or doctor plans on replacing the lenses. Those lenses would be a demo lens or plastic.
