What are Varifocal glasses?
Varifocal lenses allow distance, intermediate and near vision correction in one single pair of glasses. They work by changing power from the top distance area of the lens designed for driving and TV through to the middle intermediate area created for face-to-face conversations & computer use, and finally to the lower reading area of the lens designed for reading & close work.
In short, varifocal lenses help you see objects at all distances.
Varifocal lenses work by providing a multitude of focal points – more than the two focal points that bifocals produce. To do this, varifocals start in the same way bifocals do, with two focal distances – long-range, and short-range. However, this is where the two lens types begin to go their separate ways.
A bifocal lens is a simple combination of these two focal distances, with a clear separation between the two. Varifocals are designed to make use of the transition between these two focal distances, a gradual transition allows for the formation of multiple focal points within the transition area. This allows the wearer to have perfect vision at intermediate distances, as well as long and short ranges.
How Varifocal Lenses Work
Varifocal lenses employ a sophisticated design that incorporates multiple focal points, allowing for a smooth transition between different visual distances. While traditional bifocal lenses only provide two focal distances with a clear separation between them, varifocals take it a step further. They feature a gradual transition area that creates multiple focal points, enabling clear vision at intermediate distances as well as long and short ranges.

Adapting to Varifocal Lenses
If you have previously worn varifocals, you may be familiar with a particular design. It's important to note that each design may vary slightly, and there may be an adjustment period when transitioning to new varifocal glasses. We recommend wearing your new lenses for the first time in the morning, as your eyes are fresher and more adaptable to the change.
As with any new pair of glasses, it takes time for your eyes to fully adapt to varifocal lenses. To ensure your complete satisfaction, we offer a 30-day guarantee on all varifocal glasses. This allows you ample time to adjust and evaluate their performance. We recommend wearing your new varifocal glasses continuously for at least seven days to give yourself the best opportunity to adapt and experience the full benefits they offer.
