Reinventing Rimless:
MEI EasyFit Trend gets smarter with smart facets
MEI, the global leader in lens edging innovation, has just taken a significant leap forward with the Smart Facets function for its EasyFit Trend edger.
Designed to meet the growing demand for personalized, decorative elements on rimless lenses, Smart Facets introduces a polished, inclined bevel—applied to both the front and back of the lens.
This solution allows optical stores and small labs to deliver high-end customized eyewear with unprecedented speed and accuracy.
Integrated directly into the edging cycle, Smart Facets eliminates the common problem of asymmetrical lens design between the right and left eye. With MEI EasyFit Trend’s intuitive EyeGOAL interface and new multi-axis tool configurations, opticians can now define variable bevel sizes, angles, and polish levels, offering complete control over lens aesthetics and function.
MEI EasyFit Trend, Built for Customization, Designed for Efficiency
Smart Facets is not just a decorative upgrade—it reflects MEI’s broader mission to reshape how optical professionals create modern eyewear. The EasyFit Trend’s unmatched capabilities include:
-
Precision milling for consistently accurate edging
