Essilor

When you dispense a Varilux® lens, you are partnering with the world’s leader in ophthalmic lenses. Varilux lenses deliver the best visual performance for your patients. Essilor and Varilux are your dedicated partners in patient care and practice management.

Essilor invented the progressive addition lens (PAL) in 1959 and for nearly 5 decades, the most significant advances in PAL technology have been realized by Essilor engineers.
To this day, Varilux® lenses are proven to help you provide patients the finest vision possible.

In the last 8 years, Essilor has devoted nearly $1.2 billion to research and development. The best of this R&D technology goes into Varilux lenses. Competitors trumpet their dedication to innovation, but over the last 10 years, Essilor has spent more on research and development than our top competitors – combined.

In addition to high quality lenses, Essilor's Crizal line of anti-reflective coating materials provides your patients with better vision and superior cleanability. Crizal Avancé with Scotchgard combines the superior performance of Crizal with the unmatched protection of Scotchgard Protector.

Pinnacle Optical is a proud vendor of Essilor products and we offer the full line of Varilux lenses and Crizal AR coatings.
