Accommodative lenses

These lenses are usually used to correct accommodation insuffiency. They are usually prescribed to early presbyopes and those office bound individuals that have a very close work environment to release the focus strain associated. They are also

Bifocals lenses

Bifocals are spectacle lenses with two distinct optical powers, where the bottom segment is used to correct the near correction associated with presbyopia. Bifocals are commonly prescribed to people with presbyopia who also require a correction for myopia, hyperopia, and/or astigmatism.

Myopia control lenses

We use a lens called MYOSMART from Hoya Optics. With the exclusive non-
invasive D.I.M.S. Technology, the lens corrects the visual defect on its entire

surface and has a ring-shaped treatment area to slow down myopia
progression. The alternation of the focus area and defocus area provides a clear
vision and manages myopia simultaneously.

Multifocal lenses (Progressive lenses)

Multifocal lenses, like bifocals are used to correct presbyopia. Multifocal lenses allow you to see clearly at near, intermediate, and far distances without switching between glasses. Reading books, using a computer, driving a car, and performing tasks requiring clear vision at multiple distances are easier.
