We’ve embraced this innovative and fully-automated optical machinery to give Indiana:
- Faster turnaround of precision optic lenses
- Sustainable production free of toxic waste
- A leading-edge lens lab owned and operated in the Midwest
Digital lens generator
The Schneider Modulo XT is the best digital lens generator for freeform progressives.
It’s 20% more accurate and 30% faster than earlier equipment and delivers unmatched quality for all curves and materials.
How we make individualized lenses
After your eye exam, we send your unique, detailed visual profile to our state of the art lens lab.
Our team of certified technicians takes the information from your eye exam to craft your personalized lenses. This information can include your prescription, frame selection, lens add-ons and more. Using state of the art optical software, our technicians craft precisely cut lenses to fit your frame.
All lenses are digitally surfaced. This means your lenses are surfaced to .001 of a diopter of your prescription after the lenses are ground down and polished.
