What's Single Vision Lenses?

Single Vision Lenses
Single vision glasses are designed to help people who require correction of farsightedness, nearsightedness, or astigmatism. These eyeglasses have just a single optical prescription correction and they distribute focus evenly over the entire surface area of the lens.

What is the difference between single vision and progressive lenses?

What is the difference between single vision and progressive lens? Single vision lenses provide correction for one vision zone. Progressive (varifocal) lenses provide correction for all three vision zones; near, intermediate and distance.

Are single vision lenses good?

Single vision lenses generally help you see clearer at a single distance. Bifocal lenses are split into two sections to accommodate both near and far visual needs, and are ONLY necessary for people who have both of those needs. Traditionally, single vision lenses cost much less than bifocal lenses.
