innovation and leadership for decades. A whole range of products was
developed to help Presbyopes see better. |

Long or short sight, our Progressive Lenses
give you clear vision for both. |
|

Presbyopia, a natural
phenomenon |
| |
|
| |
 |
Around the time we
turn 40, we all begin to have trouble reading the phone book,
viewing a car's dashboard or working on a computer. This is an
Eye defect
called presbyopia. It happens to all of us, and progresses as we get
older. Different generations of spectacles are available to help you
regain natural vision. |
|
| |
|
| |
What are progressive lenses? |
| |
|
| |
Progressive Lenses give
you clear vision at both short and long distances, because they have
progressive powers of correction (from bottom to top), instead of having
only two different zones as in bifocals. To be convinced that
progressive lenses are the most comfortable solution for Presbyopia,
just consider how much you demand of your eyes in a single day,
especially looking simultaneously at short and long distances.

The importance of good vision |
| |
|
| |
 |
As a
presbyope, you should be aware that driving safely also requires
good vision at all distances. Varilux progressive lenses will enable
you to see all distances, from your road map to signs far away
without any blurred spots.
While working with your computer, Varilux
progressive lenses will enable you to focus from the keyboard to the
screen and far off objects. |

CONSUMER TESTS |
| |
|
| |
Essilor has always placed the
wearer at the centre of the development of the lens design process. As
part of this development process, consumer testing was conducted by
opticians in everyday situations in four European countries. |
| |
|
| |
 |
In a
recent clinical study, 227 bifocal wearers tried Varilux® Comfort (
1)
: 97%
successfully adapted - the highest rate ever
achieved in bifocal-to-PAL conversion. |
|
| |
|
| |
Clinical comparison of
Varilux® Comfort to Bifocals |
| |
|
| |
|
|
With Varilux Comfort, Bifocals wearers reported better near-vision,
traditionally an area of strength for bifocals. |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
Subjects experienced significantly clearer vision in the periphery,
historically a problem for PALs. |
|
| |
|
| |
Overall Results |
| |
|
| |
|
|
Over half (54.2%) of bifocals wearers rated adjustment to Varilux
Comfort "very easy".
More
than 7 out of 10 were "very satisfied" with Varilux Comfort.
Bifocal wearers are three times more likely to be
"very satisfied" with Varilux Comfort than with segmented bifocals.
