Towards a progressive lens that adapts to visual behaviour

1959: birth of the first progressive lens. The Varilux lens provides comfortable vision at any distance.

1972: launch of Varilux2, the Mono Design progressive lens. Considerably improved, it offers enhanced visual comfort.

1988: launch of the first Multi Design progressive lens. A fundamental innovation, this lens preserves the width of the near visual field and takes the evolution of the wearer's presbyopia into account.

1993: launch of Varilux Comfort. This lens takes posture and head movements into account and provides a wider field of near vision.

2000: launch of Varilux Panamic lenses, whose performance is based on Global Design Management, a technology that ensures perfect management of central, peripheral and binocular vision parameters. Varilux Panamic provides wider fields of vision at all distances, respects the wearer’s ergonomy, and offers record adaptation times.

2006: launch of the Varilux Physio progressive lens. Thanks to W.A.V.E. Technology, the Varilux Physio family ushers in a new era: that of High Resolution Vision.

2008: With this lens, Varilux Ipseo adopts the latest technologies: Varilux Ipseo New Edition lenses are custom-made and adapted to the visual behaviour of each wearer. This innovation is made possible by using "virtual reality" technologies.
