Varifocal lenses also known as multifocal or progressive lenses, are designed to counter presbyopia, which usually begins to affect us in our forties. As our eyes mature, the nearest point of vision that we can focus on becomes further away and so reading and other near vision activities become more difficult.
Varifocal lenses correct the effects of presbyopia with a gradual change in prescription from distance to near vision, restoring your natural vision without the unsightly segmentation lines or image jumps experienced with bifocals.
The latest progressive lenses provide complete focussing freedom in all the visual zones to make your vision as simple and natural as possible.
