Let’s make things clearer
Lenses, without the head-scratching.
A little knowledge goes a long way. Explore the lens designs and sight terms you’ll hear in the shop, then let’s talk about what works for you.
Single vision, bifocal and varifocal describe lens designs. Short- and long-sightedness describe how your eyes focus; the right lens design depends on your prescription and everyday needs.
Single vision
One chosen viewing distance: near, intermediate or far.
Make it clearerBifocals
Two distinct viewing areas in one lens, usually distance and reading.
Make it clearerVarifocals
A gradual transition between distance, intermediate and near vision.
Make it clearerAlso called myopia
Short-sightedness
When things farther away are harder to see clearly.
Also called hyperopia
Long-sightedness
When close work is harder to focus on comfortably.
