What Are Progressive Lenses?

Imagine a pair of glasses that can do it all—help you see far away, up close, and everything in between. That's essentially what progressive lenses offer. They're designed for people who need multiple prescriptions in one lens, typically due to a condition called presbyopia. If you're over 40, you've probably noticed that reading the fine print has become more challenging. This is presbyopia at work, and progressive lenses are a modern solution that addresses this.


How Do They Work?

Progressive lenses are unique because they have a gradient of lens power, without any visible lines. The top part of the lens helps with distance vision (think driving or watching TV), the middle section is for intermediate vision (like using a computer), and the bottom part is for reading or other close-up tasks. The transition between these sections is smooth, which means you won’t experience any sudden jumps in vision like you might with bifocals.
