Refraction (bending light) Refraction is when light bends as it passes from one medium into another. When light traveling through air passes into the glass.

Frames – fitting HCL Properties of a well fitting frame: Appears straight on face Well fitting on the nose A large enough size so that person does not aware of edges of frame Eyes fairly well centred – horizontally – vertically (usual for eyes to be a little higher in frame) Lenses frame not too far away from the eyes well fitting behind ears

Frames – fitting HCL Frame types Metal OR Plastic Full frame Rimless frame half-rimless frame

1.Too narrow for face, bending back at hinge to get to ears 2.Eye size of frame not big enough for this person, sitting quite high 3.Frame sitting slightly tilted on face 4.Coming up off the ear on second photo Frame too small 1 2 3

1.Pupils very high in this frame 2.Eye size of frame too big/deep for this person 3.Again, frame slightly tilted on face 4.Actually quite good width overall Frame too big 1 2 3

1.Frame good width and shape on bridge of nose 2.Eye size of frame quite deep, but person has varifocal lenses, and frame has enough height above pupils 3.Frame level Well fitting Frame 1 2 3

1.Frame good width on face 2.Frame eye size has sufficient depth & is good size over bridge of nose 3.Frame level – but facial asymmetry - Right eye higher than left 4.Good fit over ear & appropriate tilt of frame on second photo Well fitting Frame

4 Spectacle Prescriptions Lens Materials Ideally we want a lens to be light, thin and clear with little reflectance and that they are robust Nowadays, lenses are mostly made from Plastic material. This is safer and lighter than glass Basic lens material is called CR39 Lenses can be made thinner and lighter if they are made out of denser materials. These are called ‘high-index’ materials. There are a variety of types. They have slightly different properties. If prescription is moderate/high, advantageous that lenses are made from high-index material. Lenses will be thinner and lighter.
