Eye Glasses Lens Guide
Single-Vision Lenses
One Prescription
This type of eye glass lens has a single prescription that covers the entire lens. Single-vision lenses are for people who are nearsighted or farsighted, who just need glasses for driving, reading or, working at a computer. Single-Vision lenses are the most common type of eye glass lens.

One Prescription + Boost Zone
Spend a lot of time looking at digital screens? This can cause digital eye strain, also known as computer vision syndrome. Digital anti-fatigue lenses have distance vision and a boost zone at the bottom of the lens with increased power that helps the eye muscles to relax and focus more easily.
More About Digital Anti-Fatigue LensesBifocal Lenses
2 Prescriptions (Lined)
If you require glasses for both distance vision and reading, then traditional bifocal lenses may be an option for you as they are designed to incorporate two different prescriptions, usually distance (e.g., driving) and up-close (e.g., reading) vision. Several types of bifocal lenses are available.

3 Prescriptions (Lined)
If you require glasses for distance, computer, and reading vision, then traditional trifocal lenses may be an option for you as they are designed to incorporate 3 distinct prescriptions, usually distance (e.g., driving), intermediate (e.g., computer), and near (e.g., reading) vision.
More About Trifocal LensesTraditional Progressive Lenses
3+ Prescriptions
Traditional progressive lenses offer multiple focal zones and are the most economical progressive option. However, they are characterized by a narrow corridor, or field of vision, making adapton to them a challenge for many individuals.
More About Progressive LensesDigital Freeform Progressive Lenses
3+ Prescriptions & Wide Field Of View
Digital freeform progressive lenses offer multiple focal zones and offer wider corridor, or field of vision, compared to traditional progressive lenses. The wider corridor enables greater lateral natural eye movement and makes adapting to progressive lenses easy.
More About Progressive LensesDigital Freeform Lifestyle Lenses
Lifestyle-Tailored Progressive Lenses
Want progressive eye glass lenses with more viewing area devoted to your favourite activites? Digital Freeform Lifestyle Lenses offer the ability to devote more of the lens to distance (e.g., driving), intermediate (e.g., computer), or near (e.g., reading) activites.
More About Lifestyle LensesMyopia Control Lenses
Slow Myopia Advancement
Annual myopia progression rates are most rapid for children under 10. If left untreated, myopia can lead to lasting vision problems. Myopia management and myopia control lenses slow the advancement of myopia through the implementation of alternating areas of focus and defocus without affecting vision.
