Why SeaVision Rx Lenses Are Only Available for Dual-Lens Masks

At SeaVision USA, we specialize in crafting precision prescription lenses for scuba and snorkel masks, bringing the same high standards used in traditional eyeglasses to the world beneath the waves. But one of the most common questions we hear is: “Why can’t SeaVision make Rx lenses for single-lens masks?”

It’s a fair question—and one that has everything to do with the way prescription lenses are manufactured.Rx Lens Crafting: The Same Precision as Eyeglasses

When we create prescription dive lenses, we're not just sticking a magnifier in a mask—we're engineering a custom, optically-correct lens that precisely matches your visual prescription. This process follows the exact same methods used in optical labs for traditional eyeglasses:

  • Bifocal, progressive, or single-vision options

  • Accurate spherical and cylindrical corrections

  • Precision alignment for pupil distance and lens curvature

The catch? These lenses are manufactured as two discrete, individual lenses—just like a pair of glasses. This is why we can only offer Rx solutions for dual-lens masks. There’s no way to fit two separate prescriptions into a single pane of glass without compromising the optical clarity, structural integrity, or proper alignment of the lenses.

Bring Your Own Mask: Custom Comfort, Same SeaVision Quality

We understand that choosing a dive mask is personal. The fit, the feel, and even the look matter—especially for those who dive regularly. That’s why we offer our popular Bring Your Own Mask (BYOM) program.
