Lenses
At Gareth Edwards Optometrist we prefer to use Shamir lenses in our eyewear.
Shamir are Australian-made and have been creating quality lenses for over 40 years. Shamir focuses heavily on providing innovative technology, outstanding customer service while maintaining impeccable quality with a team of highly experienced technicians and customer service personnel based in Brisbane, Australia.
Check out some of the lens types we specialise in:
Stock Lenses
We carry a range of hard coated stock lenses for basic distance or reading spectacles. These can be edged to fit a frame in-house in Toowoomba, often with a next-day turn-around.
Lens Coatings, Treatments and Materials
Shamir coatings are available in a full range including Scratch Resistant, Hydrophobic Anti-Reflective, UV and Blue Light protection. Their lens treatments include Tinting, Transitions® and Polarised just to name a few. As well as a full range of lens materials from standard CR39 plastic through to high index thinner and lighter materials for patients with high prescriptions.
Have a chat to our team if you’re interested in learning more about lens coatings or require any specific treatments.
Contact Lenses
At Gareth Edwards Optometrist, we work with a variety of contact lens brands and encourage the use of contacts for those who don’t like glasses, play sport or would prefer an easier alternative when they’re going out.
There are cases where contact lenses can provide a better visual outcome for the patient and we’ll recommend them where appropriate. This includes Myopia control to reduce the rate of progression in children and young adults.
We can also arrange direct delivery of your contacts with a possible 2-day turn-around.
