OCCUPATIONAL LENSES
Occupational lenses, also called computer lenses, are designed to help reduce, if not eliminate, eye fatigue associated with working in front of a computer screen. While they can improve vision and reduce eye fatigue for people working on a computer, they can just as easily be helpful for people working in the kitchen or doing some other type of indoor work. That's why some brands also call them indoor lenses. The common misconception is that all computer and occupational lenses are the same. That statement or assumption couldn't be further from the truth. In fact, think about how close a computer screen is to your eyes as compared to a stove, a teacher's whiteboard, or the company director at the other end of the board table. The fact that there are different viewing distances means that these lenses need to be made for your specific needs.


OCCUPATIONAL LENSES OR DEGRESSIVE LENSES
You might have encountered the term 'degressive lenses', but do you know what they are? Occupational lenses are often referred to as varifocal lenses but are in fact degressive lenses, which are designed to work in a limited workspace. In other words, occupational lenses aren't your regular progressive lenses, as some people may assume. This category of lens (occupational lenses or degressive lenses) offers excellent, clear vision for anyone who uses a computer. However, they will not work well for someone who needs to see more than 4 meters away. Both lenses offer wider visual corridors for near and intermediate use when compared to regular varifocal lenses. To achieve the finest performance for computer use, the manufacturers have to strike a compromise in terms of design. The compromise here is that the distance field of the vision is restricted, which in turn maximises the clarity and comfort of the lenses for near and intermediate vision. They ensure excellent clarity and reduced eye fatigue. Reach out today to explore your options.
DO OCCUPATIONAL LENSES WORK?
In the past two decades, there has been an increasing demand for people to work in smaller environments, and that's what has led to these lenses becoming very popular. Almost anyone who has tried them, including ourselves, will attest to the fact that they work. The overall experience will give you more comfortable near and intermediate vision when compared to a normal varifocal or single vision reading lens. In turn, this will enable you to work for longer with less eye fatigue.

VARIFOCAL VS. OCCUPATIONAL LENSES: UNDERSTANDING THE DIFFERENCE AND BENEFITS
Varifocal lenses, also known as progressive power lenses (PPL), cater to multiple prescriptions in a single lens, smoothly transitioning from distance vision at the top to near vision at the bottom. This eliminates the need for multiple glasses. In contrast, lenses are specifically designed for near and intermediate vision, tailored to suit your work or lifestyle needs. They are ideal for people who spend long hours on computers, helping reduce eye strain and headaches. While varifocals offer all-day comfort, lenses provide superior comfort for focused tasks. Not all lenses are created equal; we only recommend high-quality lenses we trust and use ourselves.
