If bifocals and progressive In both lenses for near things , person needs to see from the bottom part of the lens ? Then what are the special benefits of buying progressive except visible separation line and intermediate vision.
Did you make a video on how progressive lenses should line up to your eye? Every time i go in to get a new pair of glasses at a new optician, they always get one side of the lens off too far in or out and I works good for an hour or so and it makes me dizzy or fatigue from wearing it. I then have to go back to my older pair of progressive glasses and it feels like my eyes are relieved. I’m no optician so the way I describe it, I hope you understand what I’m talking about
Thanx for a great video. I am about to get my first pair of progressives, I now mostly use mycomputer-glasses for work and my reading glasses to read on paper and iPad/iPhone and hardly use my distance glasses at all. What is your best tips if I really need to keep using my screen-glasses all day long at work, and then switch to progressives in my spare time. Does my eye manage to adjust if I use both progressives and computer-glasses?! best practice?
Sir I am writing this comment in a hope to get reply Sir recently I bought progressive glasses for my father, I knew that there will be peripheral distortion (blurry vision) around the side of some Portion of the lenses, but in my father's case that blurry part covers maximum portion of the lens, that means you are restricted to watch straight(at centre), you cannot even allowed to look side even a millimetre. Sir is it manufacturing default or it happens with every normal corridor progressive lenses? Please reply sir. I beg you sir 🙏
Hello! This is a very common complaint about progressive lenses, especially for first time wearers. One thing to note is that it does take a bit of time for a new wearer to adjust to the functionality of a progressive lens. The first few days (in rare cases, sometimes weeks) require the patient to think about what they want to see and which part of the lens they need to look through to see it. In other words, don't expect it to work like the flick of a switch the first time you put them on. Another problem may be the segment height and/or optical center of the lens being off. Have the lens checked by an optician as it may require a remake if this is the case.

i think i need to get one as i sort of giving up my hobby as a photographer 10 years ago as i have to wear reading glasses to see the camera menu and then take it down to see far and wear again to check the framing and snap, i want a lens that can see far and closeup at the same time

How long do I have to wear the progressive lenses each day? Btw I’m new to glasses so it’s going to be very hard to adjust to the peripheral distortion
It really depends on the user. Some people adjust to it right away. For others it takes a few days or weeks to really get comfortable with them. In rare cases, someone is non-adapt meaning their eyes cannot get used to the vision type altogether. Most of the time it just takes a bit of practice, time, and muscle memory to get fully comfortable.
what prescription are you getting outside the hourglass area. For bike riding, looking over your shoulder for traffic is important. I love the lined bifocal Half Jackets your did for me a few years ago but they need updating
Outside of the hourglass shape, you are getting what we call "soft focus". You will not be able to see as clearly the deeper you get into that area, but you would certainly still be able to make out large shapes like vehicles. You just may not be able to read the license plate. Many, many cyclists wear progressives and they love them!
Is peripheral blurriness most common in the mid range (e.g. computer distance)? I feel like I can see the computer perfectly, but the peripheral blurriness increases when I'm outdoors. I put the papers that came with the glasses in the trashcan so I don't know even know what type of lenses I have 😿
Hey Felo, you'll want to check with your Dr about the type of lens you currently have in your glasses but if it is indeed a progressive lens then it makes sense that you would experience more peripheral distortion (blurriness) compared to straight front on viewing especially in the intermediate range (computer distance) as that area for mid range viewing has the most narrow corridor compared to the distance and reading portions of said lens.
Certainly Dan! The diopter strengths for your reading correction make up the ADD power for a progressive lens. If you have questions about reading or understanding your prescription, you can always reach out to us by phone, chat, or email! 877.289.2999 info@sportrx.com
Fine video, Tyler. I'm considering these. However, a friend just got some & is frustrated. He said the distance is no different than the intermediate. His prescription changed but distance is no better than his old 1. High eyestrain. Only a few days & he went back to his old ones. Does this make sense? Any other info on this problem? Thanks.
There are a lot of potential variables, so it's tough to diagnose from that info alone. The first thing I'm questioning when hearing the distance is the same as the intermediate is concerning the segment placement. If it's too low or too high, that issue could be experienced. The other element is how strong his prescription is for the distance compared with the reading magnification. The eyestrain bit makes me wonder about frame choice. Then, when you say 'old ones', I'm wondering if those were multifocals or just single vision? You might benefit from reaching out to our opticians. They can help to figure out if they would be right for you! You can reach us at 877-789-3633
My lenses don't have any lines and I can see clear both far and near from all parts of my lenses. What type of lenses are mine? My eye sight is both near and far.
Do you need a prescription to get progressive lenses? I wear readers with a 2.50 magnification at the moment. I’m kind of wondering if these might work better for me, but if I need a prescription, I wouldn’t really bother with it.
That's a great question! We do not need a prescription if you're not looking for any correction at the top of the lens. The process of making the lenses is identical, though, so the price is the same. I would recommend reaching out to one of our friendly, knowledgeable opticians to help get that order set up without a prescription. You can get us at 888-831-5817!
@@sportrxeyewear cool! I ordered my poko arches Matt black with Maui rose gradient lens with 2.50 magnification. They should be here in a couple of days! Is it possible to get the rose colored gradient mirror with super thin glass? Just curious. I didn’t see that to be an option unless you got a different lens color or maybe the solid mirror offered that option? I dunno?
@@sportrxeyewear I was recommended for this glasses by the ophthalmologist since I am above 40 and corneal cross linking doesn’t work for me. Tried the RGP contact lenses but I can’t tolerate it either.
One doctor prescibed single focus lens for me and other doctor prescribed Progressive lens for me. I am confused which one to go for. How can you help me?
