If you wear progressive lenses to correct your vision, you have probably noticed that finding the perfect lenses is a difficult task. With Varilux Physio® lenses from the renowned Essilor brand, you will no longer have to worry about that problem.
Varilux Physio® lenses are designed to perfect binocular vision by offering sharpness at every point on the lens. This way, the curvature of the lens does not distort vision in either eye and allows you to see comfortably at all distances.
Essilor belongs to the optical technology company Luxottica and is a leader in the prescription lens market. Read on to learn more about these progressive lenses.
Effortless vision even in dynamic situations with Varilux Physio lenses
Binocular Booster technology promotes binocular vision by taking into account the prescription of both eyes in the manufacture of the lenses. It also improves the transition from far to near and vice versa. In this way, Varilux Physio® lenses provide high-resolution vision and accurate perception.
Origin of Varilux Physio® lenses
The origin of Varilux Progressive Lenses marketed by Essilor dates back to 1959, with the birth of Essilor's first Varilux progressive lenses, designed to correct eyestrain.
In 2006, Varilux Physio® progressive lenses were launched. Thanks to WAVE technology, the "Varilux Physio" family of progressive lenses marked the beginning of a new era for the Varilux brand. These lenses offer easy and quick adaptation, as well as high-resolution vision.
In 2010, Varilux Physio 2.0 integrated pupil diameter variation in all conditions into its design, increasing effortless vision in any situation.
Essilor recently launched a new version, Varilux Physio 3.0, which incorporates innovative WAVE 2.0 technology. Among its benefits is high-resolution vision across the entire lens. In addition, they guarantee stable focus in both high-motion conditions and low-light environments.
What benefits do Varilux Physio Progressive lenses offer the user?
Based on physiological studies, Varilux® Physio™ is a lens designed to meet the specific requirements of the eye, in all directions of gaze and in the three areas of vision: greater precision at a distance, better focus at intermediate distances, and wider vertical fields of vision at close range.
Distance vision
Of all high-order aberrations, coma is the most physiologically critical because it causes the greatest loss of visual acuity and contrast sensitivity. The wavefront management of Varilux® Physio™ lenses compensates for coma aberration, improving retinal image quality and, therefore, perception of detail and sharpness of vision.
Intermediate vision
Several studies on ocular physiology show that in the presence of astigmatism, the eye prefers to focus on the vertical axis. Varilux® Physio™ not only controls the amount and position of residual astigmatism, but also achieves vertical axis orientation: the wavefront entering the pupil is regular and focusing is easier. This facilitates the transition from distance to near vision and provides a wider useful area for intermediate vision.
Near vision
In near vision, the eye works in different positions, performing a wide range of movements. The Wavefront Management System™ in Varilux® Physio™ achieves a stable power zone in near vision that is wider both vertically and horizontally. The eye can explore a larger area of the lens without adjustment, making it more comfortable and ergonomic for the user.
High-resolution vision in all lighting conditions with Varilux Physio 2.0
Varilux Physio 2.0 lenses are a new advance from Essilor in wavefront management for the development of progressive lenses.
Various studies conducted by Essilor have shown that lens performance depends largely on the user's pupil diameter, which changes depending on viewing distance, lighting conditions, age, etc.
That is why Varilux Physio 2.0 lenses not only analyze the entire beam of light passing through the lens, but also take into account all possible pupil diameters in the design calculation.
This translates into three major benefits for users:
Sharper vision
Wider fields of vision
Unmatched contrast
