Seiko Vision Specialists

Proud to Be SEIKO Vision Specialists

At Harley Bain Opticians, our commitment to quality and exceptional service is at the heart of everything we do. As an independent practice, we carefully choose our partners to ensure we offer only the best to our patients—which is why we proudly stock SEIKO Vision lenses.

We’re now officially SEIKO Vision Specialists—yes, we agree, very fancy! But beyond the title, it means every member of our small but expert team is trained directly by SEIKO. From the moment they join us, our dispensers receive hands-on guidance to ensure they understand SEIKO’s advanced lens technology inside and out. So, whoever you see, you can trust they’ll help you find the right lenses for your unique needs.

SEIKO shares our high standards, working exclusively with a select group of independent practices across the UK. We’ve partnered with them for over a decade now, and it’s a decision we’re proud of every single day.

SEIKO is always ahead of the curve when it comes to innovation in lens design and optical technology. From ultra-lightweight materials to precision-tailored lenses, the options are constantly evolving. The best way to discover what’s right for you?

Single-Vision Lenses at Harley Bain Opticians

Single-vision lenses contain one uniform prescription across the entire lens surface. They’re ideal if you, wear your glasses all day for distance vision (driving, everyday activities) or need clear, strain-free focus for close-up work (reading, crafting, screen time)

Below are the SEIKO single-vision options we trust and recommend:

Progressive Lenses at Harley Bain Opticians

Progressive lenses—also known as varifocals—are the ideal solution when you need more than one prescription in a single lens. Whether you’re looking into the distance, working at a screen, or reading up close, SEIKO progressive lenses provide seamless, clear vision at every range without the need to switch glasses.

If you require different prescriptions for each eye (as most people do), SEIKO Prime and SEIKO Brilliance lenses are precision-engineered to meet your exact visual needs. These advanced lenses are customised to your individual prescription and lifestyle, offering smooth transitions between distances and exceptional clarity throughout.

With multiple designs available to suit everything from active, on-the-go wearers to those spending long hours at a desk, our team will guide you through the best options based on how you live, work, and see.

Why choose SEIKO progressives?

  • Tailored to your unique prescription in each eye

  • Designed for natural eye movement and all-day comfort

  • High-definition vision at all distances—no abrupt “jumps” in focus

  • Ultra-slim designs with modern coatings for clearer, cleaner lenses.

Computer & Indoor Lenses at Harley Bain Opticians

If you spend long hours working at a computer, desk, or performing detailed tasks, standard lenses might not offer the comfort and clarity your eyes need. That’s where SEIKO Indoor lenses come in.

These specialist lenses are designed with enhanced intermediate and near vision zones, giving you the perfect focus for screens, close-up work, and variable working distances—without needing to remove or switch your glasses.

Whether you’re a professional working on a laptop, a musician reading sheet music, an artist focusing on intricate detail, or a tradesperson moving between tools and plans, SEIKO indoor lenses provide tailored support for your visual environment.

Why Choose SEIKO Indoor Lenses?

  • Optimised for screen and near work

  • Comfortable vision across multiple close ranges

  • Ideal for fine detail and extended wear

  • Multiple design options to match your workspace and tasks

  • Great for anyone who doesn’t need distance correction all day

If your eyes feel strained at the end of the day or you find yourself constantly taking your glasses off to refocus—these lenses could make all the difference.

Tints & Coatings at Harley Bain Opticians

Enhance your lenses with the right tints and coatings to protect your eyes, improve clarity, and suit your lifestyle. Whether you’re after glare reduction, UV protection, or colour enhancement, SEIKO’s advanced lens technology has you covered.

From daily wear to specialist use, we offer a wide range of SEIKO coatings and filters to make your lenses work smarter for you. Here are a few of our favourites:

SEIKO SRC-Road Coating

Perfect for driving, this coating significantly reduces glare from oncoming headlights and reflective surfaces—especially useful at night. It also happens to be one of the most aesthetically appealing finishes we offer.

Polarised Lenses

If you want the sharpest vision and truest colour definition on bright, sunny days, polarised lenses are a must. Ideal for driving, walking, and outdoor sports, they cut through surface glare (like reflections on water or glass) and help reduce eye strain.

UV400 Protection

UV400 offers a higher level of ultraviolet protection than standard coatings. It’s particularly beneficial for people with light-coloured eyes and for children, whose eyes are more sensitive to UV damage. This coating blocks the most harmful UV rays and is available on nearly all SEIKO lenses—whether clear or tinted.

SEIKO PolarThin – The World’s Thinnest Polarised Lens

For ultimate clarity on bright days, SEIKO PolarThin lenses are a game-changer. As the world’s thinnest polarised lens, they offer exceptional glare reduction, enhanced contrast, and vivid colour—all in a lightweight design that suits virtually any frame style.

Whether you’re driving, walking, or relaxing outdoors, SEIKO PolarThin lenses help reduce eye strain by filtering out intense reflected light while still delivering sharp, natural vision.

Key Benefits:

  • Ultra-thin and lightweight for all-day comfort

SEIKO DRIVE – Lenses Designed for Safer, Sharper Driving

Driving in low light or at night can be challenging—reduced brightness, oncoming headlights, and reflections all take a toll on your vision. As your pupils widen in the dark, they become more sensitive to glare, increasing discomfort and reducing reaction time.

SEIKO DRIVE lenses are specially developed to tackle these issues head-on, improving clarity, contrast, and comfort behind the wheel.

Key Features:

  • SEIKO DRIVE (Single-Vision):

    • Enhanced long-distance vision for a sharper view of the road

    • Minimises distortion at the edges of the lens

    • Reduces glare from headlights and wet roads

  • SEIKO DRIVE X (Progressive):

    • Optimised for both near and far vision

    • Clear focus on the dashboard, mirrors, and road

    • Seamless transitions between multiple distances for a smooth, distraction-free driving experience

Whether you’re commuting at dusk, driving through rain, or navigating the roads after dark, SEIKO DRIVE lenses provide the visual clarity and confidence you need.


Drive comfortably, see clearly, and stay safer on the road.

MiYOSMART – Smart Vision Protection for Kids

At Harley Bain Opticians, we understand how important your child’s eye health is. That’s why we offer MiYOSMART lenses—an innovative solution designed to slow the progression of myopia (short-sightedness) in children.

Developed using advanced lens technology, MiYOSMART works by incorporating a unique pattern of micro-lenses within the surface of the lens. These guide light towards the peripheral retina, which helps reduce the stimulus for the eye to grow longer—a key factor in the development of myopia.

Why MiYOSMART?

  • Clinically proven to slow myopia progression by up to 60%

  • Looks just like a regular lens—lightweight, clear, and durable

  • Safe, non-invasive, and comfortable for everyday wear

  • A great option for active children and growing eyes

As myopia becomes increasingly common in children worldwide, early intervention is key. MiYOSMART lenses offer a safe and effective way to help protect your child’s vision and reduce the risks associated with high myopia later in life.
