Single Vision Spectacles
Frequently Asked Questions About Single Vision Spectacles
Are single vision spectacles the same as single vision glasses?
Yes — 'spectacles' and 'glasses' are the same product. Both refer to frames fitted with lenses that carry one prescription power throughout, as opposed to progressive or bifocal lenses that combine multiple powers.
Can single vision lenses correct astigmatism?
Yes. If your prescription includes CYL and Axis values, they're built into your single vision lenses at no structural change to the lens type. Astigmatism correction doesn't require an upgrade.
What lens index should I choose for a strong prescription?
For SPH above ±4.00, choose 1.67 or 1.74 high index to keep lenses thin and light. If your selected index doesn't match your prescription strength, Aoolia's opticians flag it during pre-ship review rather than cutting an unsuitable lens.
Can I add blue light filtering to single vision spectacles?
Yes. Blue light filtering, photochromic, and standard clear lenses are all available in single vision on every frame in this collection.
How much do single vision spectacles cost at Aoolia?
Frames start at $6.95, with single vision lenses added at checkout based on the index and coatings you choose. Every order includes optician verification before shipping — it isn't a paid extra.
