Understand the Lens
What Are Progressive Lenses?
Progressive lenses are no-line multifocal lenses with three viewing zones built into one lens: distance, intermediate, and near vision. Unlike bifocals, there’s no visible line — just a smooth, gradual transition as your eyes move down the lens.
Progressives vs. Bifocals
| Progressive Lenses | Bifocals |
|---|---|
| No visible line | Visible line divides the lens |
| 3 zones: distance, intermediate, near | 2 zones: near and far only |
| Smooth, gradual transition | Abrupt jump between zones |
| One natural-looking lens | Line is visible to others |

Adjusting to Your New Progressive Lenses
It’s normal to need a few days to a few weeks to adjust to your first pair of progressive lenses. A few tips to help:
• Move your head, not just your eyes — point your nose towards what you want to look at.
• Look straight ahead for intermediate distances (like a screen), slightly up for distance, and down for close-up.
• Wear them gradually at first — try half-days for the first few days.
• Avoid switching back to your old single-vision glasses during the adjustment period.
• If you’re still struggling after one to two weeks, check in with your eye doctor.
FAQ
What are progressive glasses?
Progressive lenses are multifocal lenses with distance, intermediate, and near prescriptions built into one lens, with no visible lines between them.
How do progressive lenses work?
They create a smooth, gradual shift between three vision zones as your eyes move down the lens — straight ahead for mid-distance, slightly up for distance, and down for close-up.
What are the advantages over bifocals?
You only need one pair of glasses for every distance, with no visible line and no abrupt “jump” between prescriptions.
How long does it take to adjust?
Most people take a few days to a few weeks. If you’re still having trouble after one to two weeks, talk to your eye doctor.
Can progressive lenses be added to any frame?
Most frames work well, though very narrow or rimless styles may not have enough height for the lens corridor — we can help you check before you order.
