Surfacing products that improve lens quality,
increase throughput and save you costs
For over 25 years, our surfacing products have helped optical laboratories create precise, high-quality lenses with the proper curve and prescribed refracting power and prism.
Many of our optical innovations are based on customer-specific solutions. One of our claims to fame, for example—the Perfect Power Surface Block—prevents lenses from warping during the heating and cooling processes of lens blocking—yielding perfectly powered lenses every time.
Automation Job Trays
No matter the equipment you have in your laboratory, we can configure our Versi Tray series to fit your needs. Choose from ten color options and two tray heights—2.75 inches (standard) and 3.25 inches for larger frames. An optional clear lid protects frames from polish and slurry, while lens pillow inserts repel liquids, prevent lens scratches and stop lenses from moving in automated systems. We also offer sturdy mobile racks to transport your job trays from station to station. Check out all the available optional features in our catalog.

Surface Gauges
Our surface gauges accurately measure spheres, aspheres, bifocals, multifocals and progressives without scratching lenses. All sagitta gauges—machined to Essilor glass master standards—are equipped with Mitutoyo 0.01 or 0.001 resolution indicators.
In addition to handheld and tabletop options, we offer sagitta gauges, prism gauges, combination lens thickness gauges, pressure gauges and axis gauges. All gauges come certified.
