Glasses That Relieve Digital Eye Strain

Thankfully, there are specially designed glasses lenses that can protect both adults and children against digital eye strain. These lenses provide:

● sharper vision

● improved contrast

● improved focus

● glare reduction

● increased comfort

We are proud to provide some of the very best lenses to combat digital eye strain, including Essilor Eyezen and Varilux Digitime. Here’s why these stand out to us, and our patients young and old:

Essilor Eyezen

Eyezen single vision lenses are specifically designed for looking at digital devices and use Dualoptim technology to deliver sharper vision than regular single vision lenses. Eyezen focus technology is used on the lower part of the lens which allow the eye to be relaxed when looking at screens. The eyezen focus boost enhances small characters and increases sharpness which in turn improves readability and the natural posture when using various devices. This technology is also paired with Blue-violet and UV light protection to eliminate eye strain when looking at screens.

While they correct myopia, hypermetropia and astigmatism, even those who don’t have a prescription can benefit from wearing Eyezen lenses.

This revolutionary lens offers options for adult and children’s lenses, since visual needs change with age, making them perfect for anyone under 40.

Varilux Digitime

These varifocal lenses are designed for adults over 40 who regularly use digital devices, particularly smartphones. Varilux Digitime introduces a fourth zone in the lens called the Ultra Near Vision zone. This is an additional power below the near vision area of the lens that helps to increase sharpness and focus on small characters. These lenses help to maintain a more natural posture when using digital devices and other near and intermediate vision activities for ultimate comfort.
