What Are Trivex Lenses?

What is Trivex?

Trivex lens material is a breakthrough optical polymer that delivers critical performance characteristics for everyday living. Only the advanced technology provided by Trivex lens material delivers the unprecedented combination of crisp, clear vision, ultra lightweight comfort, unsurpassed strength and protection.

Crisp, Clear Vision

For reading, computer work, driving, and any time vision acuity is important, Trivex lens material provides the optical quality that optimizes corrective prescriptions and helps to reduce eye strain.

Lightweight Comfort

Lenses made with Trivex material are ultra-light for ultimate comfort; Trivex is one of the lightest lens materials on the planet. And that can mean your eyewear sliding off the nose less often. Unlike other lens materials, Trivex blends the benefits of light weight and thinness, often resembling a high index lens, but weighing even less than polycarbonate.

Strength and Protection

For the demands of everyday living, eyeglass lenses need to provide protection from unexpected impact, breakage and from the sun’s harmful UV radiation. Unexpected physical contact can happen at any moment. Trivex provides high-impact resistance when it is needed most—for example, during participation in sports or in an active work environment. The high tensile strength and durability of Trivex—plus its stress-free characteristics—make it an excellent choice for drill-mount frames and any lightweight fashion frames that rely on lenses for structural rigidity. And to protect your eyes from the sun, Trivex blocks 100% of harmful UV rays.

Enhance Your Trivex Experience

Trivex lens material is the ideal foundation on which to build eyewear that will help you get the most out of life. By combining the benefits of Trivex with advanced lens designs and eyeglass lens enhancements, you can provide the ultimate in “True to Life” eyewear. Trivex is compatible with most vision enhancing lens options, including: Anti-Reflective (A/R) coatings; digitally surfaced single vision and progressive lens designs; polarized sunlenses; and Transitions® lenses.

Who Should Wear Trivex?

Trivex material provides precise optical performance for every prescription. The majority of patients—approximately 85%— have prescriptions that fall within the Trivex range and will gain the most from the benefits of Trivex material in an attractive and comfortably thin lens.

A perfect fit for children’s lenses…

With Trivex material, children gain the benefits of impact resistance PLUS great optical performance. Lenses made with Trivex material can pass some of the optical industry’s highest standards for impact resistance.  Even better, Trivex can provide that protection without compromising visual performance for reading and schoolwork.

Compatible with all lifestyles and frame styles...

For the fashion-conscious, lenses that provide optical quality, lightweight comfort, strength and protection are always in style! Trivex material is a perfect fit for all frame designs, and it is especially well-suited for rimless (drill-mount) and semi-rimless (supra) styles. The robustness of Trivex material is unmatched by any other lens material, delivering durability, ultra-lightweight comfort, and precise optics in an attractively thin lens that can satisfy your individual styles.
