Patented Technology
Shamir Autograph® - Your Personal Lifestyle Lens™
Shamir Autograph® is the ultimate freeform progressive lens for
patients with any lifestyle wanting the highest level of
personalized optics available on the market today. By combining the
most advanced optical technologies to create an innovative
personalized progressive lens, Shamir uses a comprehensive approach
to lens design and production. At work in the making of each
Autograph® lens are:
FreeFrame Technology™
Built into select new Autograph® designs, FreeFrame Technology™ is a
ground breaking design element that adapts the progressive lens
design to the frame itself. Based on the frame shape, this
unbelievable new feature dynamically adjusts the corridor length and
moves the reading zone to the most optimal position in the frame,
retaining the full reading power! Now, progressive wearers have the
freedom to choose any frame they like. Every frame picked will have
the most optimal design specifically tailored to the frame and
patient.
As-Worn Technology™
To further fine tune each Autograph® lens, Shamir incorporates
As-Worn Technology™ by taking three additional, specific
measurements from the patient: “Pantoscopic Tilt”, “Panoramic Angle”
and “Vertex Distance”. These measurements will further fine tune the
Rx given to the patient by the doctor to provide the patient with
the proper Rx for the frame shape as it’s worn on the face. The
Shamir Autograph® design is now fine-tuned to provide the most
advanced, tailored optics available anywhere today.
Direct Lens Technology® & Prescriptor® Software
Transferring this data to the back surface of the lens is the
combined effort of Shamir’s Direct Lens Technology® and Prescriptor®
software, which captures each patients personalized information (Rx,
PD, frame measurements and personal lifestyle preferences) and
selects the design file required to generate a personalized lens.
This information is then sent to the freeform production equipment
which grinds the Autograph® design on the back surface of the lens,
producing a personalized, custom made Autograph® lens, created to
the highest level of optical accuracy (0.01 diopters) and 20% wider
fields of vision. |
