Taking advantage of digital surfacing’s capabilities for enhanced customization, Shamir’s Autograph® lenses offer designs that can be calculated for patients’ frame selection and specific environmental needs.

The Bottom Line

Shamir’s Autograph® II lens designs use As-Worn Technology™ and FreeFrame Technology™ to tailor each patient’s prescription to account for the position of the lenses relative to the wearer’s eyes. The Autograph® II- Office™ design can also be customized based on specific features of the wearer’s work environment.
