Reading Glasses

Today, we need to use our eyes more than continuously. Today’s modern world requires our eyes in ways that we never have before. Even if you’re just using your smart phone, your computer or reading a classic book, being able to see clearly vision is important now more than ever. When the matter is related to eyewear, many people consider of reading glasses as helping them see better. Now, however, they are also considered to be lifestyle fashionable accessories that will help prevent eye strain and maintain good eyesight.
Eyewear companies have developed many stylish, lightweight and technologically advanced options to replace the outdated and uncomfortable option of “being trapped in a thick glass cage” with your glasses after you have finished reading or using a computer. Today’s eyewear companies are offering many new, stylish options that not only offer protection from the blue light emitted from your electronic devices but have also developed options with anti-reflective coatings.
Bifocal Reading Glasses
A bifocal reading glasses lens is made up of two different parts. The top half side of the lens is designed for observing things further away and the bottom half of the lens is crafted for checking things up close. Bifocal reading glasses are available in a wide variety of styles, shapes, and sizes to accommodate all types of fashion preferences, and they are a great option for individuals who are tired of having to switch between lots of different pairs of glasses throughout the day because they require them to see both near and far.
Progressive Reading Glasses
Alternatively, if you want to have a more seamless appearance, Progressive Reading Glasses could be the latest accommodations for your progressive vision. Progressive Reading Glasses do not display the line of separation on your lens like bifocals but rather offer a seamless experience in transitioning from distance to intermediate to near vision. Because they help facilitate an effortless method of looking forward, Progressive Reading Glasses are often called “auto focus” devices as they provide no methods of “jumping” when moving your head or searching with your eyes.

How Do Bifocal and Progressive Reading Glasses Work?

Bifocals divide your vision into two separate sections with a visible line between your long distance vision prescription, and your reading power. When looking down through the bottom of a bifocal, it is like looking through a magnifying glass when you are reading your favourite book.

Progressive lenses use "multifocal" design technology which incorporates a gradual transition between the different powers so that there isn't a noticeable jump from one power to the other. This blending of prescription ensures that you have clear vision regardless of how far away you are from the printed page simply by using your eye movement to move up or down.

New technologies such as Auto-Focus Eyewear help your eyes to adjust quickly from your laptop screen to the printed page of your latest read by using advanced lens designs that help to provide an efficient transition between these two surfaces.
