Progressive lenses are a solution for patients, typically aged 40 and above, as they address the needs of presbyopes.

Presbyopia is a condition that results from the natural aging of the eye, usually occurring from the age of 40 onwards. It is characterized by difficulty seeing close objects because the lens loses its ability to focus on nearby items. To correct this eye condition, the use of progressive lenses is a practical and versatile solution.

Progressive lenses allow correction of near, intermediate, and distance vision without needing to change glasses. Not only are they practical, but they also offer an aesthetic advantage over bifocal glasses. Unlike bifocal lenses, which have only two distinct vision zones separated by a fine line, progressive lenses provide a smooth transition between different distances without any visible separation.

High-precision progressive lenses are custom-made according to the specific characteristics of the wearer, such as the shape of their face, visual habits, and the position of their eyes. They are designed using advanced technology, precise calculations, and ultra-accurate data to account for movements and viewing angles. These lenses are often thinner and lighter for an optimal fit to the chosen frame and may include special treatments to make vision clearer in various lighting conditions, improve durability, and ease maintenance. Opticians take precise measurements to optimize the transition between the different vision zones.

They offer wider and more natural fields of vision, reducing peripheral blurred zones, which enhances daily comfort and significantly eases the adaptation period. They are also often thinner and lighter to fit the chosen frame optimally and may include treatments to improve vision clarity under any environmental conditions, as well as enhance durability and maintenance.

Regular progressive lenses, on the other hand, correct presbyopia but are generally standardized and do not account for all the individual characteristics of the wearer.

Since progressive lenses are a versatile solution with three distinct vision zones, it usually takes 1 to 2 weeks to adapt. During this period, regular use is an effective way to improve and speed up the adaptation process. It is therefore recommended not to alternate between new and old glasses, prioritizing wearing the new lenses starting from the moment you wake up in the morning.

Progressive lenses are more expensive than single-vision lenses because their manufacturing process is more complex. They require precision techniques to integrate multiple vision correction zones (near, intermediate, and distance) into a single lens. Additionally, customization to meet the wearer's visual needs and optimize comfort, precision, and durability can also increase the cost.
