Jiangsu Green Stone Optical Co., Ltd., as a professional optical lens manufacturer, utilizes advanced R&D capabilities and production technology to elevate the design of everyday progressive lenses to a higher level of precision and user experience.
Design Principles and Advantages of Everyday Progressives Lenses
The core design principle of progressive lenses lies in the progressive curvature variation on the lens surface. Unlike traditional bifocal or multifocal lenses, progressive lenses have no distinct dividing lines. Instead, they achieve a smooth transition across three viewing distances—far, intermediate, and near—through continuously changing diopters. This design fulfills users' visual needs in various daily scenarios, such as driving (far distance), working on a computer (intermediate distance), or reading (near distance), without the need for frequent glasses changes.
In the design of Everyday Progressives Lenses, the Far Vision Zone (for distance vision), Intermediate Zone (for mid-range, such as computer screens), and Near Vision Zone (for reading or detailed observation) are precisely calculated to achieve optimal optical performance and balanced visual comfort. Jiangsu Green Stone Optical Co., Ltd., employs high-precision optical design software to simulate users' eye movement trajectories and pupil positions, optimizing the progressive corridor width and controlling peripheral visual distortion. This ensures a natural transition of sight during daily wear, minimizing head movements and eye fatigue.
Material selection is also a crucial factor in progressive lens performance. The company offers a variety of optical materials with refractive indices including 1.499, 1.56, 1.60, 1.67, 1.70, and 1.74. This allows Everyday Progressives Lenses to meet different dioptric needs while ensuring the lenses are thin, aesthetic, and comfortable to wear. High-index materials are especially suitable for users with high myopia or hyperopia, as they significantly reduce lens thickness and weight, enhancing the overall wearing experience.
Furthermore, lens surface treatment technology is vital for the daily performance of progressive lenses. Everyday Progressives Lenses are available with multiple treatment options, including HC (Hard Coating), HMC (Multi-layer Anti-Reflective Coating), and SHMC (Super-Hydrophobic Multi-layer Anti-Reflective Coating). These surface treatments not only improve the lens's wear resistance and anti-scratch properties but also effectively reduce glare and reflections, increasing light transmission for clearer, more comfortable vision. For users who spend long hours on computers or mobile phones, Blue Light Filtering and Photochromic Blue Light Filtering treatments are important features of everyday progressive lenses, helping to relieve eye strain and protect vision health.
Adaptability is a key metric for the success of progressive lenses. Everyday Progressives Lenses achieve personalized fitting by scientifically measuring interpupillary distance (PD), fitting height (FH), and facial parameters, ensuring a smooth transition across the far, intermediate, and near zones. Jiangsu Green Stone Optical Co., Ltd.,'s R&D team continuously optimizes the lens design parameters to accommodate the visual needs of most everyday wearers, allowing users to adapt to the lenses faster during the acclimation period and significantly boosting user satisfaction and repeat purchase rates.
