Hirondelle

Hirondelle is a single-vision lens surfaced for the prescription: an aspheric surface that thins the lens and reduces peripheral distortion, in the index and coating of your choice. Every option goes on it — photochromic, Transitions, polarized, mirror, tint. It's the single-vision lens we surface when the power, the frame or the option calls for it.

Who it's for

High powers, high cylinders, wrapped frames, and any sun or photochromic pair.

What sets it apart

  • Aspheric surface — thinner, flatter, better looking
  • Every option: photochromic, Transitions, polarized, mirror, tint
  • Available in 1.5, 1.56, 1.59, 1.61, 1.67 and 1.74
