Progressive Multi-focal Lenses

If you are over 40 and having difficulty with your vision, chances are you are experiencing the common gradual loss of near vision. Good news! You do not have to carry a separate pair of glasses for reading or wear lined bifocal lenses like your parents did. Progressive lenses offer a smooth transition from distance vision through intermediate vision to near vision. This means that instead of having just two different viewing zones (near and distant), like with bifocals, progressive lenses have gradual powers of correction (from bottom to top), easing eye strain and providing the most natural vision correction. You will be able to see to drive, read the news, and check your email with the same glasses. 

Our office has a sixty-day non-adapt warranty on progressive multi-focal lenses. If you are unable to adapt to your new progressive lenses after substantial  wear, we will remake your lenses to single vision or a lined bifocal at no additional cost.


Digital High Definition Lenses

Do you have 20/20 vision when you wear your glasses but still feel dissatisfied with how you see? You might benefit from high-definition digital lenses. Limitations in your eye sight may be due to the optical characteristics of your eyes or can be caused by the optical limitations of conventional eyeglass lenses. Digital lenses are designed to provide sharper vision in all lighting conditions. The difference in vision between a digital lens and regular lens is similar to the difference in an HD TV compared to an SD TV. 

Virtually anyone who wears eyeglasses is a good candidate for high-definition eyeglass lenses. Individuals who look at cell phones and computers a lot throughout the day and individuals with higher eyeglass prescriptions may notice greater benefits.

If you are dissatisfied with the clarity of your eyesight with your current glasses, come visit Brinegar Eye Care to see if high-definition eyeglass lenses might provide sharper vision.


Computer Lenses

Occupational progressive lenses differ from regular multi-focal eyeglass lenses in a number of ways to optimize your eyesight when viewing your computer screen. Computer screens usually are positioned 20 to 26 inches from the user's eyes. This is considered the intermediate zone of vision — closer than driving ("distance") vision, but farther away than reading ("near") vision. The occupational progressive lens is a no-line, multi-focal that corrects near, intermediate, and up to a point, distance vision. There a larger intermediate zone than regular progressive lenses for more comfortable vision at the computer. However, this leaves less lens area for distance vision so these lenses are not recommended for driving or other significant distance vision tasks. Multi-focal computer eyeglasses are perfect for your office without the need for excessive focusing effort or unhealthful postures. If you think you might be interested in trying computer lenses, prior to your eye exam, estimate how far you like to sit from your computer, and the doctor will do the rest!

No-line Bifocal

Everyone likes to look their best, including those patients who choose to wear bifocals. The visible line across flat-top bifocals, generally seen as an age marker, gives the lens an undesirable look, At the same time it compromises visual comfort by creating a disturbing image jump. Shamir has developed a new generation of bifocal lenses that provides a more aesthetically appealing solution improving the way the wear look as well as the way they see with Shamir Duo. 

To overcome the disadvantages of traditional bifocals, Shamir Duo offers surface continuity eliminating the visible line.

Now there is no need to compromise either on appearance or on visual comfort.
