Lantal 1.9

The high index lenses Lantal 1.9 have been available from Carl Zeiss since 1995. In the correction of high myopia, Lantal 1.9 lenses allow a reduction in edge thickness, the like of which the inventors of Punktal never even dreamed of.

The extremely high refractive index of 1.893 is achieved by the addition of lanthanum and niobium to the glass melt.
