CHANGE YOUR LENSES, NOT YOUR LIFE

ARE PROGRESSIVE LENSES RIGHT FOR YOU?

Starting around age 40, your eyes gradually lose the ability to focus on nearby objects or you might have difficulty reading in dim light. This common eye condition is called presbyopia, and is a natural part of aging that will eventually affect you no matter how good your vision was when you were younger. 

Varilux lenses comparison chart: Standard bifocal lenses allow image shift, have a distracting bifocal line, and allow blurred vision. Varilux progressive lenses provide sharp vision and smooth transitions at any distance.

PROGRESSIVE LENSES VS. BIFOCALS

Bifocal lenses only allow you to clearly see far away and up close. Objects at arm’s length will still appear blurry. Additionally, there is an abrupt change between the near and far viewing areas. Varilux progressive lenses provide sharp vision and smooth transitions at any distance. 

Reveal a better range of vision

EXPERIENCE THE VARILUX
LENS DIFFERENCE

Vision changes as you age, but it shouldn’t get in the way of how you live, work, and play. Unlike bifocals or ordinary progressive lenses, only Varilux progressive lenses help you achieve the most natural vision possible.
