SPECIALTY SERVICES

Progressive Lenses Troubleshooting / Customization

1. Patient Consultation
We want to understand exactly what's not working for you. We'll find out about the specific moments you feel discomfort, the activities where you struggle, and what you use your glasses for throughout your day. We’ll focus on getting a clear picture of your visual needs and challenges to find an optimal solution that restores comfortable and clear vision for prolonged viewing.

2. Optical Lenses Data Analysis
A thorough analysis will be conducted on your current lenses, extracting optical parameters and data properties to identify any errors and grinding discrepancies in the lenses.
​
(A simple plastic lens contains a vast amount of data properties crucial for optimal vision. These include engravings, segment height, distance and near reference points, prism thinning, prescribed prism, base curve, and center thickness, among numerous other critical optical parameters.
Additionally, the precise fit of the frame and lenses on the face also significantly impacts vision. Key measurements such as vertex distance, pantoscopic tilt / angle, and wrap angle are identified from this fit, and these parameters directly influence the optical performance perceived by the wearer.)

3. In-depth Eye Examination
We'll perform an objective refraction, followed by a subjective refraction to assess your current vision needs and uncover any underlying issues. This examination also includes detailed evaluations of your visual acuity, binocular function, and peripheral vision. 

4. Lifestyle Evaluation
Should a new pair of progressive spectacles be necessary, we’ll start by determining your career, lifestyle, and visual demands to select the most suitable progressive lens design for you, ensuring optimal comfort and performance for your everyday activities.

5. Spectacle Fitting
We'll guide you through frame selection, ensuring a perfect fit for your face and prescription, as well as adjusting the frame for optimal comfort and position of wear. To guarantee precise progressive lens placement, we'll take measurements of your pupillary distance and segment height, while considering your facial features for seamless vision at all distances. Finally, we'll review the fit with you, making any necessary adjustments for maximum comfort.

6. Creation of Grinding Calculation Profile
We’ll create a customized lens grinding calculation profile, also taking into account the extracted data from your existing glasses, if necessary. Each calculation is unique and tailored to the individual. These manual calculations include refinements to the lenses' prism thinning amount, base curve, center thickness, inset, and other essential elements, all based on a comprehensive set of individual patient and frame parameters, including the full distance prescription, add power, fitting height, fitting cross decentration, and specific frame shape.

​We'll also assess if your lenses may benefit from computer-assisted calculations, such as knife edging, to reduce lens thickness without compromising your vision.

- You're All Set! -
​These precise calculations will then be applied to grind and surface your new lenses using freeform technology (Digital Surfacing). All these processes ensure your progressive spectacles deliver not only sharp vision but also comfortable and seamless transitions across all fields of view, reducing any unwanted "swim effect".

Digital-Induced Visual Disorders

In today's digital realm, we're spending unprecedented amounts of time constantly engaging in near work, primarily through the use of smartphones, tablets, computers, and e-readers. This increased and sustained focus on close-range tasks has significantly accelerated the emergence of Digital-Induced Visual Disorders, characterized by a progressive increase in dynamic visual strain, impacting gaze control perpetually and triggering a range of discomforts.

This strain leaves individuals vulnerable to conditions including eye strain, headaches, and dry eyes; focusing problems such as blurred vision, difficulty focusing, and double vision; musculoskeletal issues like neck and shoulder pain; and specific visual disorders like convergence insufficiency / excess, and increased myopia progression.

Ocular Motility Assessment

Ensuring comfortable and efficient vision starts with a thorough evaluation of your eye movements. This assessment meticulously examines the coordinated function of your eyes, critical for accurate depth perception, efficient visual tracking, and minimized eye strain.

​We begin with a detailed case history, followed by precise observations of eye alignment and range of motion, including assessments of smooth pursuit, saccadic movements, and vergence. Utilizing the cover test, binocular coordination evaluations, the Maddox rod test, and a range of other diagnostic tools, we identify potential issues, such as double vision or misalignments. This assessment is particularly beneficial for those experiencing eye strain, headaches, reading difficulties, or suspected eye teaming problems.

Double Vision (Strabismus / Diplopia)

Defined as seeing two images of the same object. This condition may be present in one eye, or both.

​Double vision is becoming increasingly prevalent in today's digital age. Our specialization in Binocular Vision disorders enables us to effectively address this concern with the use of ground-in prismatic lenses.

Prism lenses work by refracting or bending the light entering the eye, directing it to focus precisely on the same spot on each retina. This alignment of visual input ensures the brain receives the correct signals, enabling the production of a single image and correcting any double vision.

Aniseikonia / Anisometropia 

Aniseikonia is defined as a difference in the size and/or shape of the ocular images corresponding to each of the two eyes. The large difference in the amount of refractive error is known as anisometropia.

​This disparity in how each eye focuses light results in images of different sizes being projected onto the retinas, leading to uneven visual perception, difficulties with depth perception and eye coordination.

We correct aniseikonia by prescribing Iseikonic lenses, a specially designed lens with adjusted key optical parameters, including base curve, center thickness, and other factors, to equalize the perceived image size between the two eyes.​

Phoria

A phoria is a misalignment of the eyes that only appears when binocular viewing is broken and the two eyes are no longer looking at the same object. The misalignment of the eyes starts to appear when a person is tired, but it is not present all of the time.

Convergence Excess / Convergence Insufficiency

Convergence Excess is a condition where the eyes turn inward (converge) too much when focusing on near objects.

Convergence Insufficiency is the opposite, characterized by the eyes' inability to turn inward (converge) sufficiently when focusing on near objects, which results in blurred vision, headaches, and eye strain.

Divergence Excess / Divergence Insufficiency

Divergence Excess is a condition where the eyes turn outward (diverge) excessively when focusing on distant objects. This misalignment disrupts how the eyes work together, leading to blurred vision and overlapping images.

Divergence Insufficiency is the opposite, where the eyes struggle to turn outward (diverge) when focusing on distant objects.

Tropia / Amblyopia

Tropia, often referred to as "crossed eyes", is a condition where the eyes do not align properly. This misalignment occurs when the eye turns inward (Esotropia), outward (Exotropia), upward (Hypertropia), or downward (Hypotropia).

Amblyopia, often called "lazy eye", is a vision impairment typically affecting only one eye, but occasionally both. It occurs when the brain and an eye fail to coordinate properly, leading to the brain's inability to interpret signals from that eye.

Consequently, the brain increasingly relies on the stronger eye, causing vision in the weaker eye to deteriorate. It arises when insufficient visual stimulation during early childhood hinders the development of neural connections between the brain and the eye.

Colour Vision Deficiency

Having color vision deficiency (also known as color blindness) means you can’t see certain colors the way most people do, or you may not see color at all.

​This most often involves red-green vision, with protanomaly (reduced red) and deuteranomaly (reduced green) being common forms. Less frequent is blue-yellow vision deficiency, including tritanomaly (reduced blue). Severe forms are protanopia (red-blindness), deuteranopia (green-blindness), tritanopia (blue-blindness), and the rare achromatopsia (no color vision).​

Visual Dyslexia

Visual Dyslexia is a learning difficulty that primarily affects the skills involved in accurate and fluent word reading and spelling. Characteristic features of dyslexia includes difficulties in phonological awareness, verbal memory and verbal processing speed.

Nystagmus

Nystagmus is a vision condition characterized by involuntary, repetitive, and rhythmic movements of the eyes. These movements can occur horizontally (side-to-side), vertically (up and down), or in a circular pattern.

Digital Eye Strain / Pre-presbyopia

Distinct conditions, similar symptoms.

Digital eye strain, characterized by symptoms like eye fatigue, blurred vision, and headaches, can affect anyone at any age, from children to adults, due to prolonged screen use and near-vision tasks. This strain can directly contribute to accommodative dysfunction, a condition where the eye struggles to efficiently adjust focus between near and far objects. While distinct from pre-presbyopia (where the process of reduced close-up focus can begin as early as the mid-30s and becomes more noticeable in the early 40s), both conditions lead to similar visual discomfort, especially during extended periods of near work or digital device use.

We can address these issues with the use of anti-fatigue lenses, a 2-in-1 solution designed for versatile visual comfort. Firstly, they act as a pre-progressive lens, providing a subtle power boost in the lower portion to alleviate the strain associated with pre-presbyopia and aid in accommodative function. Alternatively, they function as a new type of advanced single-vision lens, suitable for anyone, including teenagers, seeking to relax their eyes during near-vision activities and reduce accommodative stress.
​
These lenses can be tailored with lower or higher additions to suit different ages and visual needs, effectively reducing eye muscle strain and making them an ideal everyday lens for enhanced visual comfort, regardless of age or the presence of pre-presbyopia. Ultimately, as smartphone usage increases in modern life, anti-fatigue lenses assist in focusing and protecting the ciliary muscle, mitigating visual stress and supporting healthy accommodation.
