Kudos

How we correct your vision with a pair of glasses is just as important as measuring your optical prescription. Even the most accurate prescription needs to be precisely tailored to how you use your eyes in real life.
 
We were the first optometrist in the North to install the Kudos machine. This advanced system uses eye-tracking technology to create truly personalised varifocal lenses, designed around the way your eyes naturally move.
 
Traditional varifocal lenses are typically based on standard measurements and assumptions about how people look through their lenses. While effective, they do not account for individual differences in posture, head position, or eye movement patterns.
 
The Kudos system takes this a step further by analysing:
  • Your natural eye movements as you look at different distances
  • Head and posture habits when focusing on near, intermediate, and distance tasks
  • How your eyes transition between viewing zones
  • Your unique visual behaviour in real-world conditions
Using this data, we can design varifocal lenses that are specifically optimised for you. This level of personalisation can provide:
  • Wider, more comfortable fields of vision
  • Smoother transitions between near, intermediate, and distance zones
  • Reduced distortion at the edges of lenses
  • Improved comfort when reading, using screens, or driving
  • Faster and easier adaptation to varifocal lenses
The process is quick, non-invasive, and easy to complete. You will be guided through a series of simple visual tasks while the system records precise measurements. These are then used to create lenses that reflect how you actually see and interact with the world.
 
Kudos is particularly beneficial for:
  • First-time varifocal wearers
  • Patients who have struggled to adapt to varifocals in the past
  • Individuals with busy, visually demanding lifestyles
  • Anyone seeking the highest level of visual comfort and performance
By combining precise prescriptions with advanced eye-tracking technology, we can deliver a more natural and effortless visual experience—helping you get the very best from your glasses.
