Professional Prescription Check

If your prescription is current, bring the original prescription, a photo or your existing glasses.

If your prescription is old, your vision has changed or you are experiencing blurry vision, headaches or eye strain, a professional eye examination may be appropriate before new glasses are made.

Types of Prescription Glasses

Single-Vision Prescription Glasses

Single-vision lenses provide one prescription across the lens and may be prescribed for distance, reading or another specific visual requirement.

Lens thickness and appearance depend on prescription, lens material, frame size and lens design.

Progressive Prescription Glasses

Progressive lenses combine distance, intermediate and near correction in one lens without a visible dividing line.

Accurate prescription, pupillary measurements, fitting height and appropriate frame selection are important for comfortable progressive-lens performance.

Progressive Lens Options →

Bifocal Glasses

Bifocal lenses provide separate distance and near viewing zones. They remain an option for selected patients who prefer a clearly defined near segment.

High-Index Thin Glasses

Patients with stronger prescriptions may benefit from high-index lens materials that can reduce lens thickness compared with some standard materials.

Frame size, prescription strength and lens design also influence final thickness.

High-Index Ultra-Thin Lenses →

Computer & Office Glasses

People working for long periods on computers may require a prescription designed around their actual working distance.

The appropriate lens depends on prescription, screen distance, working environment and individual visual needs.

Photochromic Prescription Glasses

Photochromic lenses remain relatively clear indoors and darken under suitable UV exposure outdoors. Performance varies by product and environmental conditions.

Prescription Sunglasses in Kathmandu

Prescription sunglasses can be useful for driving, outdoor work, travel and trekking. Suitable options may include tinted or polarized prescription lenses depending on prescription and product availability.

Children's Prescription Glasses

Children's glasses require an accurate prescription together with a comfortable, appropriately sized and durable frame.

Children showing signs such as squinting, difficulty seeing the board, sitting very close to screens or frequent headaches may benefit from professional vision assessment.

ZEISS & Premium Prescription Lenses

Vision Concern provides selected premium prescription-lens options including ZEISS products according to prescription, lens requirement and availability.

The most suitable lens should be selected according to actual visual requirements rather than brand or price alone.
