Varilux is a brand of progressive lenses manufactured by Essilor, a leader in the eyewear industry. Varilux lenses are known for their advanced technology and optical quality. They are designed to provide smooth transitions between different focal points, allowing you to see clearly at different distances, including far, intermediate and near.

WHY VARILUX®?

Varilux lenses have a progressive design that includes multiple lens powers with a gradual transition from distance vision at the top to near vision at the bottom. This design provides seamless vision correction at all distances. They are designed to reduce eye strain and provide increased visual comfort, especially during extended periods of reading, computer work, or other near-vision tasks.

In addition, Varilux lenses provide a wide field of vision, allowing wearers to see clearly in different directions without having to move their head excessively. This is especially beneficial for activities that require peripheral vision, such as driving or playing sports. They can be customized based on factors such as the wearer's prescription, lifestyle, and frame choice. This personalized fit ensures optimal visual performance and comfort.

THE MOST ADVANCED PROGRESSIVE LENS TECHNOLOGIES

Varilux lenses use advanced technologies to provide smooth and natural visual transitions between different focal points:

  • Varilux progressive lenses are one of the few to feature W.A.V.E technology, which eliminates distortion caused by the curvature of the lens surface. The result is clear vision with superior sharpness, even in dim light.
  • Varilux® X Series™ lenses use breakthrough Xtend™ technology to extend your vision at your fingertips. This means you can say goodbye to constantly adjusting your vision and focus on enjoying life.
  • Varilux X Series lenses also feature revolutionary Nanoptix™ technology. Unlike anything else on the market, this technology eliminates the feeling of being out of balance and gives you the confidence to take on the world.
  • SynchronEyes™ technology helps your eyes work better as a team, giving you clearer vision in all directions.
  • Varilux Comfort Max lenses feature Flex Optim™ Technology, a customized solution that expands the useful zone of vision by up to 46%. This allows you to see from multiple angles with postural flexibility for an unparalleled experience.

Varilux lenses are known for their innovative designs that provide clear vision at different distances, allowing wearers to see clearly at near, intermediate and far distances without the need for multiple pairs of glasses.

Here are some of the most popular Varilux lens designs:

  • Varilux X Series: This is one of the brand's most advanced designs, providing wearers with quality vision at all distances. Varilux X Series lenses are designed to reduce head movement and provide a natural transition between different visual zones, resulting in sharp and smooth vision.
  • Varilux Physio: Varilux Physio lenses are designed to enhance the wearer's visual acuity and clarity. They utilize Wavefront Advanced Vision Enhancement (W.A.V.E.) technology to correct higher order aberrations for improved contrast sensitivity and reduced image distortion.
  • Varilux Comfort: Varilux Comfort lenses offer wearers a smooth transition between different viewing distances and wider fields of vision. These lenses are designed to reduce the bobbing and swaying sensations often experienced by progressive lens wearers, providing a more comfortable visual experience.

It's worth noting that Varilux continues to introduce new lens designs and technologies, so there may be other designs available in addition to those listed above.
