Progressive lenses are a type of eyeglass lens designed to help people see clearly at different distances. Unlike traditional bifocals, which have a visible line separating the two prescriptions, progressive lenses provide a smooth transition between the different strengths. This means you can see far away, at arm's length, and up close without switching glasses. These lenses are especially popular among older adults who may experience presbyopia, a common condition that affects near vision. With progressive lenses, wearers can enjoy a more natural vision experience, making daily activities like reading or driving much easier and more comfortable.
