ESSILOR RODENSTOCK Impression FreeSign 3 progressive lenses come in four variations based on lifestyle: Active, for those with sporty lifestyles, provide high image stability at far and medium viewing distances; Allround, for those who participate in various activities, offer comfort for all visual zones; Expert, for patients who need smooth vision at all distances, especially medium distances; and Individual lenses, which are completely customized based on lifestyle using Rodenstock’s DNEye Scanner to accurately measure high and low order aberrations.
Varilux X Series lenses feature Xtend technology, a design calculation that extends the area of vision within arm’s reach, eliminating the need to tilt or angle the head to find “just the right spot,” according to Essilor. Nanoptix technology helps to reduce an “off balance” sensation, and Synchroneyes technology allows for a smoother transition between visual distances. Varilux X Series lenses also incorporate Wavefront Advanced Vision Enhancement (W.A.V.E.) Technology 2 for sharp vision even in low-light conditions.
HOYA HOYA’s iD MyStyle 2 lenses accommodate the total needs of a patient, from lifestyle to previous lenses worn. Lenses incorporate Binocular Harmonization Technology (BHT), which treats the right and left prescription as individual components to define the required binocular lens design. The necessary corridor length and progressive power distribution are then calculated, ensuring both eyes receive equal accommodative support. Every iD MyStyle 2 prescription is verified before the lenses are made with HOYA’s Binocular Eye Model and 3D visual acuity simulation.
