Why patients notice Nikon
A century of camera optics, in a spectacle lens: clear to the edge, very little swim at the sides. The ranges we fit:
- Seemax Ultimate, Nikon’s top varifocal, fully personalised to your prescription, frame and the way you wear it. The design we reach for when someone has struggled before, or wants the widest possible field of view.
- Seemax Sports, made for wraparound and curved sports frames, keeping vision clear where ordinary varifocals distort.
- Presio Master and Presio, the everyday Nikon varifocals, with a balanced corridor for reading, screens and driving. Very good value.
- Nikon Lite thin materials in 1.6, 1.67 and 1.74 for strong prescriptions, so the lens stays thin and light in your frame.

“Gavin was extremely knowledgeable and talked endlessly on latest lens technology. After hearing him out, I decided to go for the Nikon lens and the difference is like night and day compared to my five-month-old lenses from a well known high street chain.”
How we fit a Nikon varifocal
Eye test and a proper conversation
Prescription first, then how you use your eyes: screens, driving, sport, reading. Nikon has designs tuned for each, including Seemax Sports for wraparound and active frames.
Measured on the Visioffice X
Every varifocal we fit, whatever the brand, is measured digitally in your chosen frame. The measurements go to Nikon’s UK lab with the order.
Fitted by Gavin, refitted free
Usually back within 48 hours. We fit them on your face, show you how to use them, and adjust them as often as you need.
Nikon or Essilor?
Both. We are an independent practice and fit Essilor Varilux, Nikon, Zeiss and Hoya. We recommend the lens that suits your eyes and your frame, not a brand. If you want to understand the differences first, read which varifocal lens is right for you.
Common questions
Nikon lenses, answered
Which Nikon lenses do you fit?
The Presio and Seemax varifocal ranges, with Nikon’s SeeCoat coatings. Seemax is Nikon’s top design and the one patients notice most; Presio is the everyday range.
Why would I choose Nikon over Essilor?
Both are excellent. Nikon lenses are known for edge-to-edge clarity and very hard-wearing coatings, and Nikon offers designs tuned for sport and for a wider field of view. We recommend the lens that suits your eyes and how you use them, not a brand.
Are Nikon lenses more expensive?
Not necessarily. Price depends on the design and coating, and we work with all our lens manufacturers to keep prices fair. Ask when you book and we give you a clear price first.
How long do Nikon varifocals take?
Usually within 48 hours of your eye test for most prescriptions. Some Seemax designs and tints take a little longer and we tell you when you order.
Do you measure Nikon varifocals on the Visioffice?
Yes. Every varifocal we fit, whatever the brand, is measured on the Essilor Visioffice X in your chosen frame.
