Progressive addition lenses (PALs) are a type of multifocal lens that transitions between distance, intermediate and near viewing zones. Instead of having lines which separate these zones, progressive addition lenses are seamless. Progressive addition lenses are made by many different manufacturers and come in lighter, thinner and stronger materials making an attractive option for many eyeglass wearers. They can be tinted and made from polarized lens material as well as materials which darken in bright light. Our office is proud to offer Kodak Unique and New Varilux Comfort. The New Varilux Comfort has a shorter progression length and wider near and far zones which allows for faster adaptation and easier access to the reading zone. The Kodak Unique’s design is based on the patient’s unique eye prescription allowing for better optics and more natural vision.
