Johnson & Johnson Vision is making waves with two breakthroughs in its ACUVUE OASYS line: MAX 1-Day for Astigmatism and MAX 1-Day Multifocal for Astigmatism. These next-gen lenses are designed to deliver clear, stable vision and all-day comfort for people with complex vision needs, raising the bar on what daily contacts can do!
Let’s explore what sets these lenses apart and why it matters.
What are progressive lenses? It’s a question many contact wearers ask. Progressive lenses, also known as multifocal lenses or PALs (progressive addition lenses), are a type of lens designed to provide clear vision at multiple distances without the need for separate pairs of glasses.
PALs are primarily used to treat presbyopia, an age-related condition that affects the eye’s ability to focus on up-close objects. Progressive lenses provide a smooth and seamless transition between different prescription strengths within a single lens.
Unlike traditional bifocal or trifocal lenses, progressive lenses do not have visible lines separating the different prescription strength zones. Instead, the lenses gradually change in power from the top (distance vision) to the bottom (near vision), with intermediate powers located in between.
The lens is divided into three parts:
Read on to answer the question of what are progressive lenses, and to learn all about these lenses!
