DEFINITY vs. BIFOCALS

Near the age of 40, a condition known as Presbyopia develops. It’s a natural part of aging which makes it difficult to focus on things close. Since the days of Ben Franklin, the solution to this has been bifocals. These types of lenses are now outdated. Not only do they have an unsightly line, they also require you to pick your chin up to read . However, the biggest limitation is that there is no clear vision at intermediate distances ( such as a car dashboard, shelve at a grocery store, bank ATM machine, computer screen ). Designed in 2003, the DEFINITY™  lenses are progressive addition lenses that give you outstanding vision at all distances ( far, intermediate and near ) without any visible bifocal line! With you see sharper and see wider (30% wider field of vision than other progressives). There are many progressives on the market today but only one DEFINITY™ ! There are lenses out there that copy some of the basic design concepts of DEFINITY™ but it can not be duplicated. DEFINITY™ multi-patented lens design gives you a wider range of vision with less head movement. DEFINITY™ Lenses are the only progressive lens that use a new patented, two-surface (DUAL ADD ™ Technology), offset design to split the add power between the front and back of the lens for advanced optics. It has the least amount of peripheral distortion ever. DEFINITY™ offers the Presbyopic patient the natural vision they had before they turned 40! It is an excellent choice even for those who are active with sports or even for those who work at a computer! We recommend this state-of-the art lens for everyone. If you wonder how good the lens is, consider these facts. A recent clinical study showed that 97 % of bifocal wearers preferred.  Patients adapt to todays state of the art progressives within minutes to hours! With technology this advanced, there is no reason to wear bifocals anymore ! Ask us about  DEFINITY™ by Johnson & Johnson.  You’ll be glad you did !
