Inside each lens: top = distance · middle = screen · bottom = reading
Illustrations show general differences between these packages, not exact optical measurements or a simulation of your vision. Clear zones and peripheral blur depend on your prescription, frame, fitting and lens design. Every progressive lens has some peripheral blur.
Every option: distance, intermediate & near visionAll our lenses automatically include scratch-resistant coating
Prices are in Canadian dollars per pair. Your chosen thickness, lens type and optional upgrades determine the final price. Review your selections before ordering.
What is the overall difference between these progressives?
All four options combine distance, intermediate and near vision without a visible bifocal line. The main differences are the width of the clear viewing zones, the room available for reading, and how the design manages peripheral blur as you move between distances.

Amazing service and Amazing prices
I purchased expensive frames a decade ago; I love them. I had the prescription changed and spent a fortune on the new lenses from a local shop, but they never felt quite right. I had spent even more money buying overseas frames and lenses but the quality wasn't quite there.
I found this site and was intrigued. I gave it a shot and Im so happy I did. My lenses are PERFECT! I can see properly even with my progressives and high prescription. Im so happy to have my frames back with lenses that actually allow me to see.
