The average customer's eyes face different challenges daily.

Due to an increase in the use of digital devices, changing fashion trends and arising needs, it has become harder to find a lens and frame solution to meet the average customer’s needs. ZEISS actively responds to these challenges in order to provide better vision.

We rely on digital devices more and more in our daily lives.

With digital devices, reading distance is closer than with books or traditional  print media. This means that your customers now rely on fast, dynamic eye movements, switching between near and far distances all day long.

Fashion changes fast, and lenses need to keep up.

Along with a good vision solution, your customers want trendy frames, and the option to update their frames whenever they feel like it. A change of frame shouldn’t influence eye movement behaviour, and this should be taken into consideration when a progressive lens is created.

Ever-changing technology to match each unique face.

Facial shape can influence vision through a lens. If the lens is not fitted to the physiological face parameters (e.g. position of the pupil behind the lens or the fit of the frame on the nose and the ears), your customers may not be able to explore the full potential of 3D vision which is important for good perception of distances.

An increasing demand for tailor-made solutions, including lenses.

More and more customers want tailormade solutions and lenses optimised for their daily activities (e.g. prolonged reading, driving, office work).

A portfolio as unique as the customer's needs.

With the ZEISS Progressive Lenses Precision Portfolio, ZEISS responds to the different trends and arising customer needs – in order to provide better vision.

There are three levels of customisation available:

  • ZEISS Progressive Precision Pure

    Optimised for the eyes: digital devices have become part of your customers’ daily lives. It requires a closer reading distance than books or other printed materials.

  • ZEISS Progressive Precision Plus

    Optimised for the eyes + frame: lenses that consider closer reading distance for digital devices and also fashion frame trends that are constantly evolving with new shapes and sizes. Fast adaptation of your customers’ eyes to the lenses – in any frame.

  • ZEISS Progressive Precision Superb

    Optimised for the eyes + frame + face: lenses that consider digital device reading distance, fashionable frames and provides a design which can be anatomically fitted to the customer’s face to provide full vision potential.

  • ZEISS Progressive Individual 2

    Optimised for the eyes + frame + face + main daily activities: lenses that consider a wearer's lifestyle to ensure pupil size optimisation, for fast adaptation and the best natural vision, day and night. It is optimised for daily activities, and on top of being suited to fashion frames in a variety of shapes and sizes, it takes digital reading distance into account.

The innovations behind the ZEISS Progressive Precision Lenses Technology explained.

Technologies differ by lens.

  • ZEISS Clear Optics

    ZEISS Precision for sharp vision thanks to advanced eye-modelling research, with point-by-point calculation and advanced freeform production.

  • ZEISS Dynamic Optics

    ZEISS design philosophy for strain-free and dynamic vision with fast focus in any distance or direction.

  • ZEISS UVProtect Technology

    A higher level of UV protection, which enables clear ZEISS lenses to block harmful UV rays up to 400nm. This is the same standard of UV protection premium sunglasses provide.

  • ZEISS Thin Optics

    ZEISS lens aesthetics for the best balance between optics and thin, lightweight lenses.

  • ZEISS Digital Inside Technology

    This technology enables relaxed and sharp vision during frequent use of digital devices. The rapid transition to the near zone allows customers to view digital devices with minimal head and eye movement.

  • ZEISS FaceFit Technology

    Matches the wearers unique facial anatomy, meaning they benefit from the full potential of lens zones.

  • ZEISS FrameFit+ Technology

    Optimised lens performance in any frame.

  • ZEISS Adaptation Control Technology

    Takes the eye declination (vertical eye movement behaviour) into account. It compares the previous frame with the new fitting height and addition power in order to create a convenient eye declination and near zone location.

  • ZEISS IndividualFit Technology

    IndividualFitTM Technology takes the individual’s main daily activities into account and provides a choice of three lens designs to suit the wearer’s needs: near design, intermediate design or balanced design.

  • ZEISS Luminance Design Technology

    Luminance DesignTM Technology factors in an average pupil size of 3.3mm. It calculates the lens design bundle by bundle for more natural vision.
