Do you suffer from visual fatigue?
Eyes that sting and feel tight, headaches and blurred vision are all symptoms of visual fatigue. This is caused by many factors related to your lifestyle and activities, which increasingly require the prolonged use of intermediate/near vision; it affects more than 60% of individuals*, whether your eyesight is corrected or not.

Ok, here's the technology bit
When your eyes focus on a fixed object the focusing (or accommodation) isn't actually constant, it varies like an auto-focus camera. These imperceptible and uncontrollable variations are called accommodative micro-fluctuations. When your eyes get tired, these micro-fluctuations practically disappear. Anti-fatigue lenses have a slight built-in variation in power at near vision, and a distinctive aspheric shape that restore these micro-fluctuations.
How they help your eyes
The patented design of these lenses restore the efficient accommodation in your eyes to provide much greater comfort than a standard single-vision correction.
