Whats the difference of Crizal Eyezen vs Prevencia?

Eyezen is an upgraded improved version makes yur eyes less tired!!! Best part is its cheaper! Lastime crizal must add $100 for prevenzia total i paid $570 for crizal prevencia RX. Now Eyezen has crizal + prevencia + eyezen features all in one RX lens only at $350!!! Damn worth it. Not going for zeiss and hoya anymore. Gotok us till gao gao.

Do Eyezen lens look like prevencia (a bit yellowish lens, purple reflection) ?

Hi all, i recently got a degreeless crizal prevencia specs as i look at digital device for more than 12hrs a day. I do not wear any specs previously.

But after i wear this, im experiencing a little strain in the eye and subsequently a little headache.

Anyone with same experience? I've googled and read that some people cannot handle this kind of lens, true? Thanks!

Could it be due to ur presbyopia if u happen be around late 30s hahah. If not then maybe stop using the glasses

lamEduDe, should be because you never wear spectacles before. Go back spectacle shop ask if they can help.

I from normal spectacle lens change to wear prevencia eyes feel more comfortable. The prevencia lens is slight yellowish and things i see are not as glaring as normal lens.

[super365]

Seannie, when you wear Eyezen, when other people look at your lens does it looks same like Prevencia? Got more/lesser purple reflection?

 

[FroztSpectre]

Accidentally sat on my glasses,
then the whole thing crooked.
Manually use hand to bend it back,
now while wearing it, my whole vision fks up. Wear liao also dizzy....

Thinking of Taobao, but anyone with experience with it?

A sales person told me Eyezen does not work if the screen is directly in front of me, because only the lower half part lens has the eyezen thing (lesser myopia power), eyezen only useful if looking at an angle downwards like the tablet on table, phone on hand. the upper half of eyezen lens is same like prevencia.

I am wondering if your LCD screen is parallel to your face straight up in front of you, and you look at the lower part of the LCD screen through eyezen lens what do you see?

I come across a video showing blue protective lenses reflecting UV radiation into the eyes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KCiTMOd7iEw&feature=youtu.be

A thread talking about it http://www.optiboard.com/forums/sho...-s-Bluecontrol?p=510318&viewfull=1#post510318

Seems like they are saying that lens coating on the side near the wearer will reflect UV into the eye. Now I am wondering if the blue protective lenses actually harms the eyes more.
