What are progressive glasses lenses? Are progressive lenses better than normal ones?
Follow along as we break down:
- The basics of normal glasses
- What makes progressive lenses special
- Bifocals vs. progressive lenses
- The pros and cons of progressive lenses
- Should I get progressive lenses?
While 64% of people wear glasses, a lot of people don't really understand how they work. Hopefully this video can make it a little easier for you to choose the best glasses for you.
Essentially, progressive lenses, or multifocal lenses, have different optical powers across different parts of the lens, unlike normal glasses that have a consistent curve and power.
Please let me know if there are any specific eye- or glasses-related topics you'd like me to talk about!
