Once thought of as an 'antiquated' lens material, glass has been making a resurgence in a number of different areas. From safety applications to high-end, premium sunwear, many patients feel that glass gives them a clearer, crisper view of the world, while being extremely scratch resistant.
Combining the benefits of glass with digital full-backside designs, we are able to broaden the availability of glass progressive lenses significantly.

Shamir Spectrum and Shamir InTouch are now available in the following glass colors:

1.523 Index:
White, Photogray, Photobrown, Fixed Tints*, Polarized*, Thin & Dark
*Numerous color options available


1.60 Index:

In the United States, the only lab currently providing these designs in glass is FEA Industries. They are making these products available to all Eyecare Professionals, and also have an inter-lab program for other Shamir authorized free-form labs.
