What are progressive addition lenses?A lens designed forpresbyopes with power gradually increasing from the distance zone, through a progression to the near zone.
![Page 6: Progressive addition lens1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062400/587aa8271a28abed218b4e09/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

The usable field of view is comprised of head and eye movements as shown here for the horizontal plane.

Binocular Vision
Binocular vision:
As the patient’s gaze is lowered for near objects, the eyes converge to maintain a single binocular image. The progressive lenses should ensure that this is maintained for different object distances from the eyes, as illustrated by the lines.
![Page 9: Progressive addition lens1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062400/587aa8271a28abed218b4e09/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Peripheral (Extra-Foveal) VisionPeripheral
vision:The PAL design should ensure
that *objects in the periphery of
the visual field are easily fused.
**The distribution of prism in each lens should also be balanced for
binocular viewing.
***Corresponding areas in the two
lenses should provide a similar
level of vision.
![Page 10: Progressive addition lens1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062400/587aa8271a28abed218b4e09/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Why Use PALs?
Uninterrupted vision from distance to near
No visible line
No jump in vision from distance to near
Better vision as intermediate is clear
Looks like single vision Lighter/thinner than SV Looks better
More natural vision More visual comfort Confidence in mobility
Feature Benefit

Intermediate Vision
Intermediate vision:(a) Poor head position as a consequence of the eyes searching for the best focus in the bifocal’s limited range of intermediate clear vision. (b) Using the intermediate portion of a PAL enables more natural head position.
(a) Bifocal
(b) PAL
![Page 12: Progressive addition lens1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062400/587aa8271a28abed218b4e09/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Why Use Progressive Lenses?
Bifocal lens Progressive lens
The bifocal lens (left) can disrupt the patient’s view with visual disturbances (arrows) when the eye crosses the boundary of the near seg. The progressive lens (right) has no such problem and enables a smooth transition between different reading distances.

How a progressive addition lens works?
Invariably follow the traditional lens optics Power in the midline follows the same
distance prescription as addition increases below until desired add is reached
For the most of the lenses, this addition power is reached at a point 10-16mm below and 2.0-2.5mm nasal from distance optic centre
Width Width =

Hard design Regular distance single

corridor Rapid increase in unwanted
astigmatism
![Page 21: Progressive addition lens1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062400/587aa8271a28abed218b4e09/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Advantages
Large distance & near area free from astigmatism
More accessible with downward rotation of eye
Wider near zone even at high Rx Disadvantages : High intensity aberration at periphery Distortion for longer and more difficult
period of adaptation Swim effect
![Page 22: Progressive addition lens1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062400/587aa8271a28abed218b4e09/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Soft design : Aspheric upper halves Narrower distance & near
zone Wide & large intermediate
corridor Gradual increase in
unwanted astigmatism

Advantages Decreases intensity aberration at
periphery Easier, more rapid adaptation Less distortion of peripheral viewing Reduce swim effect Disadvantages : smaller field at sharp vision Need dropping of eye farther near to
read

Indication for selection
Hard design : Previous successful hard lens
wearers People who do a lot of reading Soft design : Young presbyopes Active outdoor profession Professional driver
![Page 26: Progressive addition lens1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062400/587aa8271a28abed218b4e09/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Symmetrical design :
Add is straight down from distance optical center
No right & left lenses Required rotation to
achieve desired inset for near (9 degree)
![Page 27: Progressive addition lens1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062400/587aa8271a28abed218b4e09/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Advantages : We can give the inset according to
patient Disadvantages : As the wearers looks to the side
they will experience different power & differential prism
![Page 28: Progressive addition lens1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062400/587aa8271a28abed218b4e09/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Asymmetrical design : Lenses have pre-
set inset for near
Different lenses for right & left
![Page 29: Progressive addition lens1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062400/587aa8271a28abed218b4e09/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Progressive Lens Design3. Symmetrical Vs Asymmetrical
Symmetrical PAL - same lens design is rotated to fit the other eye
Asymmetrical PAL - each eye has a different lens
![Page 30: Progressive addition lens1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062400/587aa8271a28abed218b4e09/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Advantages : This will not produces experience
of different power when patient looks to a side
Disadvantages : Fixed inset may not match with
patient’s required inset
![Page 31: Progressive addition lens1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062400/587aa8271a28abed218b4e09/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Mono design : Describe range of power for a
given design It classify hard & soft It describe the characteristics of
progressive zone Maintain design principles
throughout the range of addition

Multi design : According to add power lens
design changes It start from soft design for low add
power & as the add power increase it will turn to hard design lens

Prescription base design : Result of years of Vision Research Dedicated design for every Base and Add Design by Base : different designs for
Hyperopes, Emmetropes and Myopes (FOV & Magn.)
Design by Add: effective near zone sizes change as the add increases
Near inset position varies relative to level of Presbyopia / reading distance
Corridor length also varies relative to both Base and Add

Lens Design Selection Consider how the wearer uses their lenses
for most wearers a good modern progressive lens design is the best solution
but not all designs provide wide fields of view at distance, intermediate and near
consider the design that will suit the wearer general purpose : balanced fields of view mainly for reading : wide near visual fields mainly for computer : wide intermediate visual fields

The optical power is created by 3 parameters: thickness, index and curvatures
The surface of the lens is scanned by a 3D measuring system, mapping
the curvatures of the lens.

The surface data & a highly advanced mathematical algorithm are the basis to Shamir's Eye-Point Technology™, which takes into account numerous parameters:
1. Lens index refraction
2. Lens prescription
3. Lens center thickness
4. Distance from the eye to the back vertex of the lens
5. Distance from the lens to the object
6. Object's angular position in the eye's field of vision
7. Pantoscopic tilt of the frame
8. Pupil distance
9. Thickness reduction prism, and more.
By taking all of these parameters into consideration, Shamir's Eye-Point Technology™ enabled the creation of the perfect progressive lens.
