VARIFOCALS — BIRMINGHAM CITY CENTRE & MERE GREEN

VARIFOCAL GLASSES, FITTED PROPERLY.

WHAT A VARIFOCAL IS

ONE LENS. NEAR, MIDDLE AND FAR.

★ 5.0 from 150+ Google reviews · Shortlisted, Luxury Frame of the Year

A varifocal lets you see into the distance, at arm's length and up close through one lens, with no line across it. Screen, road, book, room — without swapping glasses.

It only works when the lens suits how you live and sits exactly where your eye looks through it. That is what a lens consultation is for. It is complimentary and conducted personally by Vik, an optometrist with over twenty years of experience who also trained as a dispensing optician.

WHO IS THIS FOR

VARIFOCAL WEARERS

Struggling with narrow corridors, distortion or adaptation problems? We regularly get people into varifocals that work after years of difficulty elsewhere.

FIRST TIME VARIFOCALS

New to varifocals? We explain every option, recommend the right Zeiss lens for your day and fit it with digital precision.

COMPLEX PRESCRIPTIONS

High prescriptions, prism, keratoconus, or anything you've been told is difficult. Vik has twenty years of getting these right.

DIGITAL PRECISION

MEASURED TO THE MILLIMETRE.

With varifocals, measurement decides almost everything. We use the Zeiss Visufit 1000 at Birmingham City Centre and the Zeiss i.Terminal at Mere Green to place each lens exactly where your eye looks through it, with you wearing your frame.

AFTER YOU COLLECT

GETTING USED TO THEM.

Your varifocals are usually ready in 10 to 14 working days, and we book your fitting when they are. Every pair is adjusted to your face before it leaves the studio.

Varifocals take a little getting used to, and your aftercare guide explains what to expect. If your vision isn't comfortable within that time, come back in. Vik will review your prescription and lenses, and where an adjustment is needed, we remake the lenses.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
A great place to get a proper eye test. The glasses are amazing value considering the lenses they use. They also reglazed a couple of pairs. A very friendly team that just want to help and make even the most unstylish person stylish.
— Ryan Williams, J.HYDE Mere Green · Google review
I had a lovely experience at J.HYDE. I noticed the perfect pair of glasses in the window, popped in tried a few more before settling. The optician was very charming and I had noticed how good his flat lenses looked so enquired about them. Had a free eye test, and then ordered. They had some pretty state of the art kit I hadnt seen before so that your glasses fit just right. Great experience, have recommend to my friends.
