A monumental task

Driving is a monumental task: rain, fog, snow, being blinded by bright XENON headlights and so forth.

A scientific study carried out among 1000 motorists shows that 42% of the participants has difficulty seeing well in the dark. (32% of the men and 55% of the women). Furthermore, one second of being blinded while driving 100 km/hour is equivalent to driving blind for 28.78 m.

The below lenses ensure that you will be more confident when you get in your car and that you will be able to drive comfortably once again. Let’s go!

These treatments are available for most single-vision and multifocal lenses. Would you like to learn more about these lenses? Go to the section on single-vision and/or progressive lenses to see the difference between the various types of single-vision and multifocal lenses.

Formula 2 Drive

The human eye is highly sensitive to glare, particularly in traffic where the lighting conditions frequently change. The lights from oncoming cars cause us ‘momentary blindness’. During that state of blindness, millions of rods and cones in our retinas are overexposed. That blindness reduces our concentration, which significantly slows down our reaction time.  Besides momentary blindness, nyctalopia or night-blindness is also a danger to you and to traffic safety.

Formula 2 Drive overcomes this night-blindness and guarantees you better safety and more driving pleasure. 

The Formula 2 Drive lens is a symbiosis or correlation of three intrinsic parameters: 

  • The material (plastic) of the lens contains a UV filter. This filter blocks up to 420 nm of harmful Blue GT+ UV light. 
  • On the front, we use the i-Protection Blue GT+ (anti-glare technology). The i-Protection Blue GT+ reflects the blue light and enhances contrast and it greatly improves color vision
  • On the back we use low-flex-coating. This coating prevents light rays entering from the side (due to glare) so that they do not reach our eyes. 
  • Formula 2 Drive is available for just about every single-vision or progressive lens design.

A glass especially developed for use in traffic. After all, the lens design has been modified to focus on intermediate and distant vision.  

Vision Company has already been powered by German optoVision for 10 years when it comes to lenses. We are their exclusive distributor for their high-technology lenses in the Belgian market.

optoVision was founded in 1979 and has developed a lot of expertise over the years. This expertise is evident to everyone. In 2016, optoVision has been elected over and over as the number 1 lens supplier of the biennial survey by 'markt intern' in Germany.

An internal market study compared 13 German lens suppliers based on 12 criteria. The German opticians gave 12 separate scores for each manufacturer. And that is how optoVision proudly accepted the title of the best lens manufacturer not just once, but four times in a row.

In 2017, optoVision consciously said ‘no’ to moving production to low-wage countries. No less than 6.000.000 euros were invested in production in Langen. 

optoVision may not be so well known in the Belgian market, but we are doing everything within our power to compete against the large, well-known brand name suppliers. We attend training multiple times a year so that we can give you the most accurate info.
