LAST month Silmo happened in Paris. It’s been running for over 50-years and is the world’s number 1 optical show.
Part of the shows is the highly prestigious Silmo d’Or (Golden for those whose school French is as rusty as mine) Awards. Winning one of these awards is a very big deal. Here at EDGE, we were delighted (although not surprised) to see that Shamir’s Metaform lenses won the much coveted ‘Vision’ award.
It came as no surprise to EDGE because these lenses are incredible. Whether you wear distance glasses, reading glasses, occupational lenses, or varifocals, you need them in your life. And if you have a high minus prescription (in other words, are very shortsighted) you definitely need them in your life. Because these lenses are up to 18 times stronger, they can be made up to 40% thinner and also 40% lighter. You’ve probably had thinned down lenses in the past? These are even thinner than that!
Using Metaform lenses as well as other groundbreaking technology at EDGE we’re able to produce incredible results. Check out these VERY strong lenses. Around minus 14, but they sure look thinner than that!
So, if you’ve always wished your lenses could be thinner, or know someone who has, then EDGE is the place to come. We can do things that the high street places simply can’t do. Come and test us. We love a challenge!
