Why More Choose Progressive Lenses

By Brandon Powers


The advances in technology allow older persons over the age of 40 to improve their ability to read small and view objects over considerable distances. The progressive lenses are prescribed and advised in comparison to the previous sets for greater levels of comfort. Bifocal and trifocal glasses are seldom prescribed when the progressive lens serve as a more suitable option.

The latest technology allows for the correction of eye conditions such as Presbyopia offering a modern and natural appeal. Otherwise referred to as multifocal, it offers a number of benefits over bifocals and trifocals. The technology allows for a smooth progression of the power of a lens to view all distances.

If you are experiencing difficulty in the ability to view various objects over distances, it requires treatment for enhanced acuity. The lens consists of an intermediate zone that allows for the viewing of different images including fine print and computer screens. The correct prescription can assist in supporting the needs of all affected patients.

The multifocals are developed to provide 3 different zones within the lens. The upper part of the lens is referred to as the distance zone allowing for the viewing of objects that are far away. Intermediate provides improved viewing capabilities for regular activities. If you need to read fine print, the near zone is used to improve sight.

Image jump is described when wearing bifocals and trifocals. The use of multifocals allows for a decrease in this problem and provides greater comfort for those who experience disturbances with other types of eyeglasses. There is less pressure placed on the eyes and improvements in natural visual adjustments.

Progressive lenses have increased in popularity and provides intervention for enhanced vision. For those who are impacted by sight disturbances, such measures can relieve dysfunction. Eye practitioners can examine visual acuity and advise on the options available to improve such capabilities.
