Why Choose Progressive Lenses?

At David J Scholten, OD, PC, we understand the importance of clear and comfortable vision. Progressive lenses are an excellent solution for people who have difficulty seeing objects at various distances. As you age, it is common to experience a decline in near vision or develop presbyopia. Progressive lenses address these issues and provide a seamless transition between near, intermediate, and far distances.

The Benefits of Progressive Lenses

  • Clarity: Progressive lenses offer clear vision at all distances, allowing you to see near objects like books, intermediate objects like computer screens, and far objects like road signs without the hassle of switching between multiple pairs of glasses.
  • No Sharp Dividing Lines: Unlike bifocal or trifocal lenses, progressive lenses have a smooth transition between the different focal points. This eliminates the unsightly lines associated with traditional multifocal lenses.
  • Enhanced Comfort: Progressive lenses provide a more natural vision experience compared to older alternatives. The gradual change in power within the lens helps reduce eyestrain and headaches caused by constant refocusing.
  • Aesthetics: With progressive lenses, you can enjoy a more youthful appearance compared to traditional bifocal or trifocal lenses. The absence of visible lines makes them virtually indistinguishable from regular glasses, allowing you to maintain your style and confidence.
  • Customization: Our experienced optometrists will personalize your progressive lenses based on your unique prescription, eye measurements, and lifestyle needs. This ensures the best possible visual performance and overall satisfaction.

Choosing the Right Progressive Lenses

When selecting progressive lenses, it is crucial to consider various factors to meet your individual requirements. Our knowledgeable staff will guide you through the process, taking into account the following aspects:
