Lenses
Cut in our workshop. Explained in plain English.
Every pair of Brillmoor glasses is glazed in the room behind the shop. That means fewer mistakes, faster repairs and lens prices we can actually explain.
Edge thickness for a short-sighted (minus) lens, estimated from the lens width and a standard base curve. Your optician will confirm the final numbers once your frame is chosen.
Lens types
Four kinds of lens, for four kinds of day.
Your optometrist will recommend one after your exam. Prices are for a pair, on top of the frame.
Everyday
Included
Single vision
One strength across the whole lens. For distance, reading or screens.
Over 40
from £195
Varifocals
Distance at the top, reading at the bottom and a smooth zone between.
Work
from £120
Office lenses
Desk-depth focus for screens and meetings. Wider and calmer than varifocals.
Close up
from £60
Readers
Reading only, made to your exact prescription instead of off the shelf.
Coatings
What we add, and what it actually does.
We include anti-reflection on every lens because it makes the biggest difference. Everything else is optional, and we will tell you if you don’t need it.
Anti-reflection
Fewer reflections, clearer eyes in photos and less glare at night.
Included
Hard coat
Scratch resistance for everyday knocks.
Included
Blue-light filter
A slight filter for long screen days. Comfort, not a medical need.
+ £30
Photochromic
Clear indoors, darkens outside in about a minute.
+ £90
Polarised sun
Cuts glare from water and wet roads. For prescription sunglasses.
+ £110
Clean coat
Repels water and fingerprints, so lenses stay clean longer.
+ £20

Lenses arrive uncut from the lab. We trace your frame, centre the lenses on your pupils and edge them on site, then check every pair against your prescription before you collect.
