GlassesShop.com today announced that it expects increased online sales due to the increasing popularity of PC lenses. Currently, GlassesShop.com is the only online PC color lens provider.
PC, with the chemical name "polycarbonate", is an environmentally friendly plastic. It has been popular for its elegance and safety ever since Vision- Ease Lens Inc. introduced the first PC prescription lens in 1985. The safety is reflected in ultra-high crushing resistance and 100% UV blocking rate. The elegance is represented in the thinness, transparency, lightness and comfort. Also, the popularity of PC lenses is due to the following key selling points:
- It is the safest kids' lens
- It has the strongest crushing resistance amongst other lens
- It has a 100% blocking rate of UV below 380nm
- Each lens has an extra-hardness film, more scratch-resistant than ordinary resin
- The minimum center thickness is 1mm, making its thickness the same with high index lens
- It's the ideal choice for frameless glasses
- It's cheaper than the 1.60 index lens
- It has a variety of photochromic, polarized and sports lenses as well as all the resin lenses that utilise PC.
Due to the difficulty in its processing and assembly, only a few online websites provide such lenses, despite its many advantages. Up to now, GlassesShop.com is the only PC color lens provider. "Our mission is to bring the best products and services to consumers and meet the need of their choice," said CEO of GlassesShop.com, Peter King. Thanks to our efforts in the past six months, GlassesShop.com has been able to take the lead in launching this product. GS has been adding a series of new laboratory equipments, employing a large number of technical experts. It is the courage source of its commitment to consumers.
Now, people are not only able to purchase resin lenses, but also PC lens via online providers. This is especially good news for consumers that such high-quality PC color lenses can be easily customized as well. With the development of electronic commerce, the online glasses' selling business is closer to customers, making it more convenient for customizing demand. On one hand, this move brings convenience, while on the other hand GlassesShop.com has increased its market share. It's believed GS will enjoy more customers as a result of the introduction of PC lenses.
