Progressive lenses are now the most commonly type of multifocal lens used today. Progressive work in a very similar way to a bifocal lens, by allowing the wearer to look through the lower portion of the lens to read. However Progressive lenses use a gradual transition of power from distance to near. Not only does this eliminate any visible segment, it allows the wearer to gain an intermediate prescription between the distance and near portions of the lens. This means you can:
look into the distance, for example when driving.
See sharply at an intermediate distance, for example when looking at a computer screen.
See sharply at near or reading distances.Progressive lenses can suit every aspect of day to day spectacle wearing.
Progressive lens design has improved dramatically over the years. The technology used to generate the complex curves has made leaps and bounds, to improve wearer comfort and increase visual performance. Freeform technology has meant that Progressive can now be custom made to your prescription, almost eliminating adaption time, and offering an option for patients who have struggled with Progressive in the past.
We use Progressive from some of the major manufacturers such as Hoya, Essilor, Seiko, Rodenstock, Shamir, Vision Rx.
Note : All the measurement for Progressive Lenses are taken by PD meter.
