Why Lenses Come First
Frames may define your look, but lenses define how you see. Choosing frames before understanding lenses often leads to compromise. At J.HYDE Birmingham and Mere Green, lenses always come first — matched to your prescription and lifestyle, so your eyewear is built on intention, not chance.
What to Expect From Your Lens Consultation
Your prescription is the foundation of your eyewear journey. Whether it’s from an eye test at J.HYDE, by bringing your own prescription, or by fitting new lenses into your own frames (completed after frame assessment), we make the process seamless.
From there, we guide you through the right solution:
- Single Vision — clear focus for distance or near
- Varifocals — seamless vision across all distances
- Specialist lenses — designed for screens, driving, or task-specific use
Included as standard with every eyewear purchase: Single vision lenses (1.6 index) with glare & scratch protection.
ZEISS upgrades available: ClearView, SmartLife Varifocals, PhotoFusion (light-adaptive), polarised, 1.67 / 1.74 thinning.
Your consultation continues with ZEISS Precision Measurement — exclusive to J.HYDE — ensuring millimetre-perfect alignment for unmatched clarity and comfort.
Where Vision Meets Style
At J.HYDE, lenses are more than clarity — they express identity.

- Gradient & bespoke tint effects
- ZEISS PhotoFusion X for adaptive light

Your lens and tint choices set the stage for the next step: the Style Session, where we curate frames to complement both your vision needs and your individuality.
