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.
