Progressive Lenses

Progressive lenses, also known as multifocal lenses or varifocal lenses, are a type of eyeglass lens that provides a smooth transition from distance vision to near vision without the visible line that separates traditional bifocal or trifocal lenses.

The man is dressed in a gray blazer with a shoulder bag, gesturing with his hands as he speaks, while the woman, with short white hair and wearing a polka-dot shirt, holds a coffee cup and listens with a smile.

As people age, their eyes gradually lose the ability to focus on nearby objects due to a condition called presbyopia. Progressive lenses offer a solution by providing clear vision at all distances, including far, intermediate, and near vision, without the need to switch between multiple pairs of glasses.

Unlike bifocal or trifocal lenses, which have distinct zones for different viewing distances, progressive lenses offer a seamless transition between different powers of correction. This allows for more natural vision and eliminates the abrupt image jump experienced with traditional multifocal lenses.

Progressive lenses eliminate the visible line found in bifocal or trifocal lenses, giving wearers a more aesthetically pleasing appearance. There are no telltale signs of aging or the need for reading glasses, which can boost confidence and self-esteem.
