Choosing the Right Reading Lenses: Single Vision, Bifocal, and Progressive
As we go through life, our eyes slowly change. Many of us notice that words on a page may seem a little fuzzy, or that we need brighter light to read comfortably. These small changes are completely normal. With the right reading lenses, everyday tasks—whether reading, working on a screen, or enjoying a book—can feel effortless again.
Single Vision Reading Lenses
Single vision lenses provide one fixed power for near vision. They work well for reading, sewing, or checking a phone. When you look up, distance and intermediate objects become blurry, so most people take them on and off throughout the day. This option suits those who mainly need glasses for short periods of close work.
Bifocal Reading Lenses
Bifocal lenses combine distance and near powers in one lens. The upper area handles far vision, while the lower area supports reading. This reduces the need to switch between two pairs of glasses. The segment line is visible and creates a small “jump” when shifting focus, which some people adapt to easily and others find distracting.
Progressive (Multifocal) Lenses
Progressive lenses offer distance, intermediate, and near vision with a smooth transition and no visible lines. They support modern routines like reading recipes, using smartphones, and driving. Most people adapt within one to two weeks and appreciate having one pair that works for every distance.
Choosing What Fits You
Lens choice depends on how you use your eyes each day. If you only read occasionally, single vision may feel simplest. If you need to move between distance and near, bifocals and progressives offer more flexibility—progressives being the most seamless and discreet.
