What are single vision lenses?

exactFit single vision lenses give you a wider peripheral view and 360° visual comfort no matter the task. Single vision lenses have one vision correction (near or distance) that covers the entire lens.

This differs from progressive lenses that correct for 3 distances in one lens. Single vision lenses are ideal for close-range activities like reading or using the computer, and/or providing sharp focus for distant viewing activities, like watching a movie in a theater.

Astigmatism

Astigmatism occurs when your cornea or lens is not completely spherical which causes blurry vision (that can potentially affect your vision at all distances). . This is a common eye condition detected during an eye exam. A patient with astigmatism will have a prescription with a CYL correction (the lens power) and an AXIS correction (a value between 0 and 180 degrees) to correct the distortion they see. If a patient prefers contact lenses, your doctor will usually prescribe a TORIC lens (this is to correct the astigmatism).

Presbyopia

As we age, our eyes change, and the eye lens is not as elastic as it once was. This makes it difficult to see at varying distances; most notably reading fine print when your lenses correct for distance. If you’re having difficulty reading menus, seeing in low light or starting to hold your phone out in front of you to read, it’s time for an eye exam. A single vision lens may be recommended, but more likely an office or progressive lens.
