What are Anti-Fatigue lenses?

With the increase in the amount of reading we do on computers and cell phones, some are finding it hard on their eyes and may cause digital eye strain. Anti-fatigue lenses are designed to relieve eye strain and fatigue, with the upper portion of the lens providing perfect distance vision correction (just like regular single vision lenses), and a subtle change in power towards the bottom to relieve the strain of near work. The “power boost” area in the lower potion of the lens provides greater comfort than standard vision correction for near-vision work.

Anti-Fatigue lenses are versatile and can be worn for many near and intermediate visual tasks, not just computer use.
It is specifically designed to meet the vision needs of people in their 30s and 40s who are experiencing near vision discomfort for the first time. Regardless of whether they are single vision wearers or not yet spectacle wearers.
The benefits for the wearer
  • Helps the eye to focus more easily.
  • Stress and strain-free viewing throughout the day.
  • Easy adaptation for unaccustomed eyes.
  • For universal use – from morning until night.
