Bifocals

Bifocal Lenses vs. Progressive Lenses

Trying to decide between bifocal and progressive lenses? Here’s how they compare:

  • Bifocal Lenses: Two distinct vision zones with a higher image jump than progressives. Ideal for those who require more help in reading than computer use.
  • Progressive Lenses: A gradual transition between 3 vision zones with no visible line.

 

Bifocal glasses are perfect for:

  • Anyone needing clear distance and near vision in one lens.
  • Those who prefer a distinct separation between vision zones.
  • People who suffer from vertigo, motion sickness or just don’t want to deal with the adjustment period of progressives.
  • Offers a bigger field of view than progressives.
  • Budget friendly and often less costly than a full progressive lens.

  • Round Segment Bifocals – Offers a smoother transition between vision zones.
