Eyeball Chart comparing Varilux Comfort® and DEFINITY™
  • With progressive lenses, peripheral distortion increases with add power. However, patients experience substantially less peripheral distortion with DEFINITY™ Lenses compared to Conventional Progressive lenses.
    • This is especially true at higher add powers
  • In larger lenses, DEFINITY™ is the only progressive lens that features a unique GROUND VIEW ADVANTAGE ™
    • This GROUND VIEW ADVANTAGE™ minimizes distortion and flattens the field of vision
    • Provides patients with clearer vision when looking down
    • May help when walking downstairs
Conventional Progressive Lenses compared to DEFINITY™
Presbyopia affects most people in their 40s and 50s and is characterized by an inability of the eye to focus at near and intermediate distances, which is what you see at about an arm's length. Progressive lenses are typically recommended for those with presbyopia, but beware! Not all progressive lenses perform the same.


With DEFINITY™ SHORT™ Lenses, your patients can expect the same superior benefits of DEFINITY™ Lenses in smaller, more fashionable frames.
