Digital Progressive Lenses

Digital lenses, also called high-definition lenses, are a relatively new improvement for eyeglass wearers — but what exactly are they and are they right for you? Traditional eyeglasses are surfaced on one side using a standard “mold template.” Surfacing is the process of adding a prescription to a lens. For traditional lenses, the best field of vision is set in the center. On the other hand, digital lenses are surfaced on both sides and are customed to fit your prescription. For that reason, they eliminate more distortion and help you transition from near to far vision much more easily. The difference is a clearer image quality. It’s like comparing the display of an old-fashioned tube television to the modern high-definition picture of today. People who wear high-definition lenses will experience a noticeably dramatic increase in clarity over traditionally made lenses. For example, objects will appear exponentially sharper, clearer and more vivid.
