Seiko 1.67 Super MV

The world's most advanced free-form single vision lenses

The worlds first double-sided aspheric design technology from SEIKO provides the highest optical performance in a lens that is lighter, thinner and more comfortable than conventional spherical and aspheric designs.

Redefining Visual Excitement

  • Thinner and lighter with flatter base curves on both sides. Comparable to 1.74 index lenses.
  • Back surface free-form compensation virtually eliminate power errors, distortion and marginal astigmatism.
  • Improved optics over all other single vision lenses with the widest peripheral vision.
  • Ideal for difficult Rx's especially high cylinder.

Introducing Seiko Super MV 1.67, the world's first 1.67 high index double-sided aspheric single-vision lens from Seiko Optical, the leader in high index lens design.

Seiko Super MV 1.67 (MaxVue) lenses take advantage of the latest in free-form lens technology to create the highest standard in terms of optical performance, thickness, lightness and comfort.

Seiko's double aspheric design creates a thinner and lighter lens, with flatter curves on both sides.
Super MV's unique combination of low base curve and concave free-form aspheric design compensates for distortion, peripheral power error and astigmatic aberration in a balanced manner. The result is exceptional clarity of vision throughout the entire lens, with a significant improvement in the effective viewing area of the lens, especially in prescriptions with high cylinder.

Seiko Super MV lenses provide standard aspheric compensation on the front surface, which includes a Seiko-exclusive 10mm spherical fitting button in the lens center for instant patient accommodation. The free-form back surface provides precise secondary aspheric/atoric compensation for each individual prescription. The result is exceptionally wide peripheral vision with stable, comfortable vision throughout the entire lens.

Super MV is available from +6.00 to -10.00, out to a -5.00 cylinder (total power of -10.00 diopters), with up to 3 diopters of prism.

Spherical
No Aspheric Compensation

Conventional Aspheric
Aspheric compensation in the spherical power only
Super MV Double Aspheric
Aspheric compensation in the sphere power and throughout the cylinder power

Super MV Double Aspheric Lenses
In a spherical lens design, power errors are increased in the peripheral area of the lens. The effective viewing range is therefore considerably limited. Spherical lenses are also thicker and heavier. In aspheric lens design, the aspheric front surface controls astigmatism and power error in the spherical power, resulting in wider peripheral areas. Aspheric lenses are thinner and lighter than spherical lenses. In Super MV lenses, power error and marginal astigmatism in the peripheral areas of the lens are optimized in the spherical and cylinder powers, significantly improving the effective viewing range.
