Shamir Genesis, the new precision engineered progressive lens manufactured by Shamir Optical Industry and Eyal Optical Industry, is an exciting development in progressive lenses. The result of Shamir’s advanced Eye-Point Technology™, Shamir Genesis is designed through an exact simulation of the human eye, guaranteeing accurate, clear vision through individual tailoring. Recreating perfect vision, it allows labs and opticians to adjust the lens to their patients, not vice-versa.

Shamir’s Eye-Point Technology™  is a radical departure from conventional eyeglass lens analysis tools. Its key element is a dedicated ray tracing program written by Shamir experts.  Capable of calculating the optical performance of thousands of locations covering the entire lens surface, the ray tracing program takes into account numerous parameters: lens index refraction, lens prescription, lens center thickness, distance from the eye to the back vertex of the lens, distance from the lens to the object, object’s angular position in the eye’s field of vision, pantoscopic tilt of the frame, pupil distance, and more. By combining all of these parameters, the perfect optical lens system is created.

The first Eye-Point Technology engineered lens, Shamir Genesis wearers immediately sense the difference. Clinical tests show that users point to perfect binocular vision, allowing them to clearly perceive the depth and dimension of the object in view. In addition, they also attest to optimal optical performance – including enhanced peripheral vision – in all of Shamir Genesis’ vision zones.  All its regions are aspheric, enabling exceedingly low distortion levels plus the ability to produce the thinnest possible lens. Shamir Genesis is a unique progressive lens because it is ideal for small and large frames alike. An extra thin lens, Shamir Genesis is currently available in 1.498 Hard Resin, 1.5 Transitions Brown & Grey, 1.6 Plastic, 1.6 Glass White (Clear 16ä) PBX & PGX and 1.7 & 1.8 Glass White. Plastic 1.67 will be available May 2001

Shamir Genesis™ is the ultimate precision-engineered progressive lens for accurate, individualized design for every angle, every vision zone and every prescription. Your patients will immediately sense the difference, because of the folowing benefits:

Surround Vision™: Shamir Genesis ensures improved peripheral vision because it is designed through an exact simulation of the eye.

Prism Balance™: Shamir Genesis guarantees perfect Binocular Vision, enabling patients to clearly perceive an object's depth and dimension.

SuperClarity™: Because Shamir Genesis is based on Shamir's advanced Eye-Point Technology™, vision clarity is enhanced even more, bringing it to an optimal level in every vision zone.

Soft Design: A technological breakthrough, Shamir's Eye-Point Technology™ ensures the softest lens design for every vision zone.

 

Pure Asphericity: Aspheric in all its vision zones, Shamir Genesis is the thinnest possible lens.
