These lenses are created using computer-controlled surfacing equipment, allowing for highly precise customization of the lens surface. This customization considers the individual’s prescription, the frame they’ll be fitted into, and their specific visual needs and habits.

Digital lenses can correct various vision issues, including nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and presbyopia. They offer benefits such as reduced distortion, improved peripheral vision, and smoother transitions between different prescription powers in progressive lenses.

Components:
1. **Frames**: The structure that holds the lenses in place. Frames come in various materials such as plastic, metal, or a combination of both.
2. **Lenses**: The optical components that correct vision. They can be made from glass or plastic and can have different coatings for anti-glare, scratch resistance, or UV protection.
3. **Bridge**: The part of the frame that sits over the nose, connecting the two lenses.
4. **Temples**: The arms of the frame that extend over the ears to hold the glasses in place.

Types of Glasses:
1. **Prescription Glasses**: Customized glasses with lenses designed to correct refractive errors such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and presbyopia.
2. **Reading Glasses**: Glasses specifically designed for near vision tasks, typically for individuals with presbyopia.
3. **Bifocal Glasses**: Glasses with two distinct optical powers, usually one for distance vision and another for near vision.
4. **Progressive Glasses**: Multifocal lenses that provide a gradual transition between different optical powers for distance, intermediate, and near vision without visible lines.
5. **Computer Glasses**: Glasses designed to reduce eye strain and fatigue from extended computer use, often with blue light filtering properties.

Ray-Ban sunglasses were created in 1936 by Bausch & Lomb, an American company. They were originally designed for pilots to protect their eyes from glare while flying, hence the name "Ray-Ban" which means to "ban" the sun's rays. The first model, known as the Ray-Ban Aviator, quickly gained popularity not only among aviators but also among the general public. Since then, Ray-Ban has become one of the most iconic and recognizable eyewear brands worldwide.

The frequency of people losing sunglasses can vary greatly depending on individual habits, care, and lifestyle. However, it’s not uncommon for people to misplace or lose sunglasses, especially during outdoor activities, travel, or when they are frequently taken on and off. Factors such as forgetfulness, accidental dropping, or leaving them behind in public places can contribute to sunglasses being lost.

Single vision lenses are corrective lenses that correct vision for a single distance, either near or far. They are commonly used to correct conditions such as nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia), and astigmatism. Unlike progressive lenses, which have multiple focal points, single vision lenses have a single focal point across the entire lens. They are often prescribed for individuals who need correction for only one distance, such as reading glasses or distance glasses.
