In today’s optical market, more and more consumers are seeking thinner, lighter, and more aesthetically pleasing lenses, especially in areas where high myopia rates are rising.
Compared to standard 1.56 lenses, 1.67 lenses significantly reduce edge thickness and overall weight while maintaining excellent optical performance.
This makes them particularly popular in the rimless, fashion, and high-end prescription optical markets.
The most popular model is the 1.67 MR-7 blue cut SHMC X6 lens, an advanced high index lens following the 1.60PMMA lens.
It boasts several superior features:
1. Suitable for rimless glasses
The 1.67MR-7 material is ultra-tough. Its high toughness makes the lens less prone to breakage when drilled, allowing for drilling into the lens body to fit high-end rimless and semi-rimless eyewear.
It’s worth mentioning that compared to the 1.61MR-8 material, which can also be used in rimless glasses (the 1.60MR-8 lens, due to its darker base color, often struggles to meet customers’ demands for high transparency).
The 1.67MR lens offers high transparency and no base color. Therefore, it holds an important position among high-end lenses.
2. Thinner and Lighter Lenses
As we all know, with people’s pursuit of fashion and aesthetics, lens thickness has become an important factor for many users.
Thickness is especially crucial for users seeking high-end lenses. 1.67 index lenses are thinner and lighter than 1.60 index lenses.
While providing a better visual experience, the thinner lens itself significantly enhances the lens’s aesthetics.
3. Wider Power Range
