You may begin to experience problems seeing nearby objects when you reach your 40s, and your optometrist will likely recommend wearing bifocals to improve your vision. Although this is an effective solution, Vienna Eyecare Center offers another great option in the form of progressive spectacle lenses.
These lenses contain multiple prescriptions, allowing you to see objects clearly at all distances. They work similarly to bifocals without the visible line separating the lens powers. A single progressive lens has three major zones. The upper section allows you to see distant objects more clearly; the middle section provides intermediate-distance viewing, which can help reduce computer eye strain; and the lower section helps you see near-range objects better.
Progressive eyeglasses are the best way to correct presbyopia. This age-related condition occurs when your eyes’ natural lenses start to lose their flexibility. This can make up-close activities like reading, cooking, or sewing difficult. These lenses can also help with other refractive errors such as myopia (nearsightedness) or hyperopia (farsightedness).
Progressive lenses will give you clearer vision and a better quality of life. Since they do not have visible junctions, they provide a seamless transition when viewing different distances. This can help reduce or eliminate your risk of developing differential displacement problems. Progressive lens users also report fewer instances of eyestrain and headaches. The elimination of the visible line separating the lens powers also makes these lenses more physically attractive.
