Does it take time to adjust to progressive lenses?
How long should it take to get used to progressive lenses? I have never worn glasses before.Progressive lenses were developed to allow easy switching between near and far views. Progressive glasses are divided into four parts. The upper part is the far-light region. The lower part is the near-light region, and the middle part is a variable light region. From top to bottom, if the hyperopia film is gradually increased and the myopia film is gradually decreased. The middle variable area is on both sides of the astigmatism area. Because of the prism effect, when you see things, through this area, the object will be blurred, and the eyes will feel uncomfortable. If the height of the frame itself is very small, the transition zone of progressive multi-focus is very narrow, and the eyes may not adapt to the sunglasses. The current design of progressive lenses is still not mature. Imported brands are relatively stable but expensive, and domestic brands are not mature in design. For various reasons, progressive glasses may be difficult to adapt to wearing.
Choose the right lenses for blue light glasses.
Since visible light is made up of yellow, green, and blue light, the blue lens blocks the blue light, leaving only yellow and green light. Yellow plus green is yellow, so what we see is a yellow lens. If it is viewed from the side, we will find that the lens is also transparent, with no background color, and most of it is yellow-green. The dark yellow blue lens appears chromatic aberration, and it can be more serious. So to block blue light and do not hurt an eye again, you had better choose light yellow lenses to prevent blue light.
What are bifocals?
A bifocal lens is a lens with two focal points. Because of the imaging principle of the lens, even half of the lens can still present a complete image, and the two images do not interfere with each other. In the past, both short-sighted glasses and presbyopia glasses were called single-focal lenses, which had only one focus. Later it developed to the bifocal lens, and the same lens is divided into upper and lower two parts. The upper part of that lens is used when seeing far, and you look down when seeing close objects, just the reading distance, naturally used the second half.
Clear glasses can be stylish for children.
Children who wear clear glasses can choose the glasses with good gloss, high hardness, and are not easy to scratch, not easy to wear, durable. Colorful, beautiful, and fashionable glasses show the lovely image of childlike innocence. They had better have the characteristic such as corrosion-resistant, not an easy allergy quality. They are tough enough, colorful, fashionable, and energetic.
Progressive lenses and single vision lenses
Single vision lenses are the most commonly used prescription lenses. This lens type has a single field of view or a prescription ability of the entire lens and can be used to correct myopia (nearsightedness) or hyperopia (supervision).
Progressive multifocal lenses are lenses with different upper and lower powers for the upper part to see far, and the lower part to see near. The distance from the fixed power above the lens to the fixed power below the lens does not change suddenly, but there is a gradual transition between the two through the gradual change in refractive power.
How to Get Used to Progressive Lenses?
It is common that your vision may change when you are over age 40. You can find it is happening when have to hold your favorite book, the daily newspaper, or a restaurant menu farther away just to read it. This is an eye condition called presbyopia. It is normal and almost all of us get it as we reach middle age.
This eye condition often can be corrected by progressive lenses which allow you to see objects from far to near clearly. With progressive lenses, you do not have to switch your glasses to see far or near objects frequently.
However, since progressive glasses have three different prescriptions in one lens, it may be difficult for some people to adapt to the new ones. So, in this post, we will show you how to get used to progressive lenses.
