Progressives are perfect if you need distance and small print correction.
From the first measurement to the final cut, exactFit progressives are engineered with precision to give you edge-to-edge clarity with multiple distance corrections built-in. If you struggle to read a menu and see your dinner guest, then wearing progressive lens lets you do both without switching between different pairs of glasses. You get 3 distance corrections in one multitasking lens: reading at the bottom, intermediate in the middle and distance at the top.
Causes blurring of near vision, which can be very frustrating and makes the most common task a nuisance. Progressive lenses give you reading and distance correction.
Clear vision at all distances without switching glasses. This allows you to multitask, between looking at your phone, reading a recipe and driving a car.
Having difficulty seeing objects far away; like the wipe board or a street sign

The short answer is no! Multifocal lenses have come a long way since the bifocal. Progressives correct for 3 different distances: reading, intermediate and distance. Bifocals only correct for distance and reading. You’ll also notice that bifocals have a line across the lens to divide reading and distance regions. With progressives, there are no lines across your lenses; in fact, no one would be able to tell you were wearing them just by looking at you. The changes between different distance corrections are much smoother in a progressive lens and more abrupt in bifocals.
Bifocals correct both distance and reading vision, with a visible line separating the two corrections. Progressives, on the other hand, offer three corrections for near, intermediate, and distance vision, providing the best field of vision across all distances without a visible line. Many prefer Progressives for this reason, but ultimately, it comes down to personal choice.
If you find it difficult seeing up close and far away -- like reading the fine print on a bottle and seeing street signs – then it’s best to schedule an eye exam. Typically, when we reach our 40s, our eyes gradually lose the ability to focus on nearby objects or text. This is known as presbyopia and it’s very normal and a progressive prescription will help address it.
It’s common to take some time to adapt to progressives. And it’s mainly because you’re no longer looking anywhere through a single vision lens; instead, you train your eyes to look at different parts of the lens for certain tasks. Our optometrists and opticians will guide you through the process. We typically recommend wearing them as much as possible until you adjust. On average, it takes 2 weeks of continuous wear to adjust.
