oftalmologiske linser
Explanation:
Det er vist den form af ordet, der oftest bruges på dansk. Er helt enig med Blangsted i, at "linser" er mest passende her. Du kan muligvis også skrive "progressive linser", hvis du kan få bekræftet, at det er den slags, der er tale om. Det vil i hvert fald give mere mening, hvis målgruppen ikke er øjeneksperter...

"Spectacles" is in US English "glasses" = briller, men på dansk er ordet "linser" brugt mere her.
