Spectacles

Comfortable, Stylish Spectacles Made Just for You

At Dresden Vision, we understand that older New Zealanders require more than just standard glasses. Age-related eye conditions, such as presbyopia or dry eyes, can impact your vision and daily comfort, so it’s essential to choose eyewear that truly meets your needs.

That’s why we offer two classic frame shapes—rectangle and round—that suit a wide range of faces and styles. Each pair is thoughtfully crafted from recycled and recyclable materials, making them lightweight to wear, durable enough for everyday life, and better for the environment.

Ordering your spectacles online is simple. Whether you’re picking your lenses, choosing a colour, or uploading your prescription, our step-by-step guide takes the guesswork out of the process. And if you need a hand along the way, our New Zealand-based customer support team is here to help. You’ll talk to real people who understand what you’re after, not automated replies.

From start to finish, we’re here to make your eyewear journey easy, personal, and suited to your stage of life. Shop now!

Designer Frames for Spectacles that Reflect Your Personal Style

Our round and rectangular styles feature swappable arms and optional tinted lenses, allowing you to easily switch up your look to match your outfit, mood, or the season. They’re super comfortable to wear all day and tough enough to keep up with your lifestyle.

Many of our styles come with UV-protective lenses too, so you can look sharp while protecting your eyes, whether you're enjoying the outdoors or curled up with a book at home.

Types of Spectacle Lenses We Offer

Choosing the right lenses for your specs is key to enjoying clear vision and day-to-day comfort. In New Zealand, where conditions can change quickly from bright sunshine to cloudy skies, it’s worth knowing what your lens options are and how they can support your lifestyle.

Lens Type	Benefits
Single Vision Distance	Ideal for distance, clear, and simple everyday use
Single Vision Reading	Tailored for close-up tasks like reading or sewing
Multifocal Lenses	Seamless vision transition across near, intermediate, and distance views
Bifocal Lenses	Two distinct segments for distance and near vision

Every pair is carefully crafted with a strong focus on quality and precision. We also provide lenses with built-in UV protection, perfect for shielding your eyes from harsh ultraviolet rays, which is especially important given New Zealand’s strong sunlight and outdoor lifestyle.

What Are the Signs You Might Need Spectacles?

As we get older here in NZ, it’s pretty normal for our eyesight to change—often so gradually we don’t even notice it. Many Kiwis only realise they might need specs once the signs become hard to ignore. Some of the common signs include:

• Squinting more than usual – This is your eyes’ way of trying to sharpen the view, whether you’re looking at something up close or across the room.
• Struggling with fine print – Reading food labels, books, or texts on your phone can become tricky, especially in dim lighting.
• Getting frequent headaches or sore eyes – Eye strain can sneak in after a day in front of the computer, reading, or binge-watching your favourite show.
• Harder to see at night – Driving in the dark or dealing with glare from oncoming headlights can be more difficult.
• Holding reading material at arm’s length – This is a tell-tale sign of presbyopia, which often kicks in around your 40s.

At Dresden Vision, we design tough, affordable spectacles made to fit everyday life in New Zealand. Whether you’re after a pair for reading or need reliable all-day vision support, our sturdy frames and high-quality lenses are made to keep up with your lifestyle.
