Hello again! Dr. Obby from O33 Vision here. Today, I’ll be helping you compare the top progressive lens brands in Thailand, along with some interesting histories of each brand. This will make it easier for you to choose the best one that suits your needs.
1. Zeiss (The Brand We Trust at O33 Vision)
Zeiss is a world-renowned brand from Germany, founded by Carl Zeiss in 1846. Known for their cutting-edge lenses used in the medical industry, microscopes, and high-end optical devices, Zeiss has over 170 years of experience in producing high-quality lenses. This brand is famous for its exceptional precision and innovative lens designs.
2. Essilor
Essilor was founded in France in 1972 from the merger of Essel and Silor, both of which have a legacy dating back over 150 years. Essilor is famous for pioneering innovative lenses, such as the Varilux, the first progressive lens that has become the global standard for modern progressive lenses.
3. Rodenstock
Founded in Germany in 1877 by Josef Rodenstock, this long-standing brand is renowned for producing high-quality lenses and eyewear. Rodenstock is particularly known for its lens designs that focus on comfort and ease of use, and its technology has become very popular among progressive lens wearers.
4. Nikon
Nikon, founded in Japan in 1917, is widely known for its camera lenses but also produces high-quality vision lenses. Nikon lenses stand out due to their sharpness and high-performance lens coatings, making them ideal for those who need high-definition clarity in their vision.
5. Hoya
Hoya, founded in Japan in 1941, started by producing high-quality glass lenses and later developed lightweight, easy-to-use plastic lenses. This brand quickly became popular worldwide, offering a wide range of products and great value for users.
