Crizal Anti-Reflective coated lenses with Scotchgard Protector for Ultimate Clarity, Ultimate Scratch Resistance, Ultimate Cleanability, Eliminate scratches, smudge/dust, and glare – providing you with lasting clarity of vision.


Anti-Reflective Coating allows more light to pass through the lens thus reducing glare and actually clearing vision. The coating supplied by Friedman Optometry is 10 layers thick. Our competitors often offer only a 1 layer coat. Your glasses will look better, your eyes will be more comfortable and you will see better with new and improved anti- reflective coating.


Night vision is dramatically enhanced as well. Objects appear brighter and crisper but without glare. In daytime, anti-reflective coating eliminates most reflections for increased comfort and less eye fatigue.


A one year guarantee is always included on your Anti-Reflective Lenses.


Many of these specialty lenses are available in our optical lab for same day delivery.

Transitions III

Transitions plastic, high index or polycarbonate lenses respond to sunlight and darken automatically to absorb up to 80% of visible light. These lenses have been radically enhanced since their conception in the early 1990's.


The colors change faster with excellent consistency, the range of color has increased, and now with the third generation, Transitions III, the gray and brown color integrity has been perfected. Now Transitions is available in XTRActive true gray color.


This is an excellent option for those patients who spend a large amount of their time outdoors. This lens is 85% absorbent in daylight and 25% absorbent indoors.

Contact Lenses

If you are thinking about getting contacts, it is time to schedule an eye exam. The doctors at Friedman Optometry are dedicated to helping members of the community see clearly. In addition to traditional glasses and frames, we offer eye exams for prescription contact lenses. We carry several brands of prescription contact lenses.


For those new to contacts, we can help train you to wear and care for them properly. If you do discover that contact lenses are for you, we will help you find the right fit, brand, and prescription.


Eye Irritation

Eye irritation from contact lenses may be due to the brand you are wearing. Our contact lens exam makes sure that the brand you are using is compatible with the chemistry of your eye, making sure that your eyes are comfortable.


Choosing The Right Contact Lenses

Choosing between prescription contacts or eyeglasses for vision correction depends on your personal preferences, activities, and how your body reacts to the contact lens. A basic contact lens exam can help determine if contacts are right for you.


Contact lenses do have some advantages:

  • Contact lenses don’t interfere when working out or playing sports.
  • Contacts typically aren’t affected by weather conditions and won’t fog up in cold weather like glasses.
  • Contacts conform to the curvature of your eye, providing a wider field of view, causing less vision distortions than glasses do.
  • Contacts go with whatever outfit you are wearing!
