Degressive glasses, an essential complement for wearers of progressive lenses
Degressive reading glasses, also called proximity glasses, mid-distance glasses, computer glasses or depth of field glasses, are the result of innovative lens technology. Indeed, these near vision glasses allow you to rediscover clear and sharp vision over several distances:
- up close to 30-40 cm to read, write...
- at mid-distance at 60-80 cm to work in front of the computer (perfect vision of the screen and keyboard)
- at an intermediate distance of 80 cm to 3 m to discuss with your interlocutor while keeping your pair of glasses on your nose.
Digressive lenses also offer other advantages:
- Relaxed posture : With a wide field of vision, you adopt a more natural posture, reducing tension in the neck and shoulders.
- Reduced eye fatigue : These lenses limit eye fatigue caused by changes in focus.
Degressive glasses can be not only complementary glasses for progressive lens wearers but also a single pair for emmetropic presbyopes (without distance vision defect). Their innovative process offers a new alternative to progressive lens wearers; they can equip themselves with brand new "additional" equipment to work in front of screens.
Progressive glasses are not the best suited for computer work. To simplify, we can say that they are distance vision glasses with the possibility of seeing up close, while degressive glasses are glasses for seeing up close with a degression on the top of the glass for intermediate distances. Thanks to the soft geometry of their lenses, they give you a more natural posture for working. Choosing a pair of degressive reading glasses means offering yourself additional visual comfort for close-up work.
Presbyopes seek visual comfort in front of screens
Every day many people who have no problem seeing far away become presbyopic and do not need to wear progressive lenses; their difficulty is with reading and near vision. Rather than choosing basic magnifying glasses, degressive reading glasses are interesting because they are designed for working on screens in the office. Easy to adapt and with a large field of near vision, they help young presbyopic people to accept their first glasses.
Currently, more than 60% of presbyopes use a computer and glasses that are not necessarily adapted to near and close vision. Nearly 80% of them complain of eye fatigue or headaches after a day of working on a computer.
Degressive lenses are recommended for presbyopic people who use screens for many hours every day.
