About Nikon

Reputation acquired through excellence

Our name says it all

There is a name that's synonymous with 'the world's finest lenses'- and that name is Nikon. A global leader since 1917, Nikon has been giving millions of people a better point of view with the world's most trusted and desired optical products. While most people link Nikon with superior camera lenses, many do not know that we began manufacturing high quality premium eyeglass lenses in 1946, years before introducing the first Nikon mass-market camera. From single vision to progressive lenses, Nikon offers everyone proven optical design expertise and the highest quality materials and coatings for superior visual performance.
