The birth of progressive lenses
In 1907, British optometrist Owen Aves first proposed the concept of progressive lenses and got the first patent of progressive lenses. In 1910, Henry Orford Gowlland designed and made a similar lens in Canada, but technical limitations prevented it from succeeding. In 1959, Bernard Maitenaz, a French optical and mechanical engineer, developed the first progressive lens, which was successfully put into the commercial market for the first time and became a milestone in the history of world optometry. With the development of science and technology, the design of progressive lenses has been greatly developed.
What Is Trivex Lens?
Trivex is another light, impact-resistant eyeglasses lenses. Like polycarbonate lens, Trivex is an excellent lens material for safety applications and children’s eyewear.
Trivex lenses are made of a urethane-based monomer. They are produced using a slower, cast molding process similar to how regular plastic lenses are made. The liquid lens material is slowly baked until is set. This gives Trivex lenses the advantages of sharper optics than injection-molded polycarbonate lenses.
The Benefits of Glasses Without Prescription
From the above part, you have found some basic information about glasses without prescription. In this section, we will list some benefits of plain glasses.
The non-prescription glasses are inexpensive, and they are widely available in a selection of styles and shapes. In addition, non-prescription glasses can be easily replaced as fashion changes.
Meanwhile, everything has two different sides. So, there are also some negative voices of glasses without prescription.

The classification is different.
Acetate frames can be divided into two kinds, one of which is the lens using acetate fiber processing of plate cutting. The other is the injection frame. It uses acetate fiber particles. Acrylic acid is a kind of unsaturated organic acid, which can be derived from a series of compounds to form a large class of acrylic products. Acrylic acid downstream products contain common acrylate and special acrylate. It has the characteristics of heat resistance, weather resistance, aging resistance, strong adhesion, water resistance, acid and alkali resistance, stickiness resistance, and environmental friendliness.
Types of Progressive Lenses
At the same time, there are different types of progressive lenses and they are standard PALs, short corridor PALs, computer PALs, and Reading PALs.
Standard PALs must fit your vision needs. They can be added to frames of your choice, but you need to ensure that the frames are the right width and height proportions to grant enough space for the gradient changes in the lens.
Short corridor PALs are made to fit into smaller frames so as to suit a wider range of eyewear styles.
Computer PALs are designed for computer users and other occupations that require strong intermediate and distance vision.
Reading PALs are designed for those who enjoy reading and they can opt for a pair of lenses with a larger close vision zone.
