See Clearly at All Distances with Progressive Lenses

Progressive lenses, also known as multifocal lenses, are a revolutionary advancement in vision correction. Unlike bifocals with a visible line separating the near and far vision zones, progressive lenses offer a seamless transition between viewing distances. This means you can see clearly from near to intermediate to far without switching glasses.

  • Effortless Focus: It eliminates the need to constantly switch between glasses, allowing you to focus effortlessly on any distance.
  • Improved Quality of Life: Enjoy a more comprehensive range of clear vision and participate in activities you love without limitations.
  • Modern Design: Dresden Vision offers a wide range of stylish frames that complement progressive lenses seamlessly.

Find the Perfect Progressive Lenses NZ:

Choosing the right progressive lenses can be overwhelming. Our friendly and experienced team will guide you through the process, ensuring you find the perfect lenses for your vision needs and lifestyle.

Here are some factors to consider when choosing progressive lenses:

  • Your visual needs: Discuss your specific vision challenges with an optometrist. Do you primarily need help with reading, computer work, or both?
  • Lens material: We offer a variety of lens materials, each with its benefits. Consider factors like durability, scratch resistance, and weight.
  • Lens coatings: Anti-glare coatings can significantly improve comfort and reduce eye strain, especially when using digital devices. Dresden offers anti-reflective coating on all lenses for no additional cost.
  • Frame style: The size of your chosen frame will impact the size of the transparent viewing zones in your progressive lenses.

How Do Progressive Lenses Work

Progressive lenses use a clever design that incorporates multiple zones within a single lens. The top portion of the lens is dedicated to distance vision, allowing you to see far away. The middle zone provides a clear vision for intermediate distances, perfect for computer work or hobbies. Finally, the lower portion of the lens is designed for near-vision tasks like reading.

You'll activate the appropriate zone for clear vision at any distance as you tilt your head slightly and move your eyes down the lens. It takes some time to adjust, but most people find them comfortable and convenient after a short adaptation period.
