With today's technology, a simple solution to the need for reading lenses is the use of multi-focal progressive lenses. Traditional bifocal lenses provide clear vision of objects in the distance and near ranges, but everything in between is blurred. The visible dividing line is also a telltale sign to everyone that you are wearing bifocals!
Varilux Progressives No-Line Bifocals: Continuous uninterrupted vision for distance, reading and everywhere in between. Your eyes make a smooth transition between vision zones, with no "jump" or distracting lines.
Varilux lenses are progressive addition lenses (sometimes referred to as progressive multi focal lenses) and are the most sophisticated solution for presbyopia, the inability to focus on near objects. Varilux lenses are the most technologically advanced lens design available for people with presbyopia. Varilux invented progressive lenses over forty years ago as a superior alternative to bifocals and trifocals.
Continual enhancements over the years have made Varilux lenses the number one selling progressive lens in the world. Numerous patents have been granted to the design of Varilux progressive addition lenses, which make them unique lenses for the correction of presbyopia. Varilux lenses offer comfortable, natural vision instantly everywhere you look-near, far and everywhere in-between, so you can focus on life, not your vision.
