The base curve refers to the front surface curve of an eyeglass lens. It describes how flat or curved the lens appears and plays an important role in both vision and frame fit. The right base curve helps ensure clear optics, proper alignment with your prescription and a natural look. It is carefully selected to balance visual performance, comfort and lens design
