New Electronic No line Bifocals are here!!

We at Family Eyecare Associates are proud to be the first in Northern Nevada to offer new electronically controlled progressive addition lenses (no line bifocals)!  For those of you who have had challenges adapting to the standard no line bifocals, electronic control of the near portion of the lens may be your answer!

This lens can be changed to near power manually (by a touch of your right finger to the temple), or automatically (based on the tilt of your head). It is charged in a similiar fashion to an electronic toothbrush, and the battery life is very long.  A very neat, new technology that will allow many patients to function at their best in no line bifocal lenses.  To learn more, go to:  http://www.lifeactivated.com/.

We will continue to be early adopters of technologies that help our patients and care.  This is our mission "to provide the highest level of service and care to our patients!".
