FAQ's
Why are Varifocal Spectacles so expensive?
Progressive eyeglass lenses are more complex than a standard single vision lenses. They combine distance, intermediate and reading prescriptions within the one lens. At Direct Sight we only supply Freeform Varifocal lenses, the most advanced progressive lenses. Computer-aided design and a digital manufacturing process create them to offer a much wider viewing area.
Why do my varifocal glasses have printing on the lenses?
All varifocal lenses have markings laser engraved in them. These marks help identify and position the lens correctly in the glasses frame and verify it during quality check.
Why are varifocal glasses so difficult to get used to?
Progressive glasses or varifocal glasses may take time to adjust to. Different viewing points exist within the lens for distance, intermediate, and reading. Finding the correct area of the lens to look through for each focal point can take time for your eyes and brain to adjust to. Adjusting to your varifocal lenses will provide you with helpful tips.
What are the most common problems with varifocal lenses?
Two main issues may arise when adjusting to your varifocal lenses.
Firstly, people can experience 'swim and sway' because of the distortion at the outer edges of the lens. This is where your vision feels like its moving as you move your head. It can take up to 2 weeks for your brain to adapt to the new lens type.
Secondly, you may not be able to find the reading vision. The reading prescription is there you just cant find the focal point. This usually occurs if you drop your head to read. Instead simply drop your eyes to look through the correct portion of the lens.
Occasionally, a varifocal lens will need to be repositioned to bring the reading part higher up the lens. We will remake your lenses free of charge if this is required!

Why are prescription progressive lenses blurred at the sides?
The outer edges of the lens distort your peripheral vision. This is because of a change in the power of the lens as it progresses from the distance prescription down to the reading prescription. The blurred edges encourage your eyes to look through the correct parts of the lens.
Are there any disadvantages to varifocal glasses?
Varifocal glasses tend to be more expensive than single vision glasses and the lens designs can take some time to adjust to. Varifocal glasses help you see well at various distances, like watching television and reading, without needing multiple pairs.
How to choose varifocal lenses that are right you?
When choosing varifocal lenses, there are a few factors to consider to ensure they are right for you. Firstly, it is important to have a comprehensive eye examination to determine your specific prescription needs. This will help the optician in advising the appropriate lens design for your individual requirements.
Next, you should discuss your lifestyle and daily activities with the optician. For instance, if you frequently use a computer, it is important to have progressives with a wide intermediate area.
Additionally, consider the size and shape of the frames you prefer. Varifocal lenses require a certain amount of vertical height in the frame to accommodate the different prescription zones. Choosing frames with a larger lens area is advisable to ensure optimal vision across all distances.
The Varifocal lenses that we offer at Direct Sight are all high quality free-form progressive lenses. We have 3 types of varifocal lenses with different clarity, smoothness, and visual performance. The Varifocal Advanced is our most popular lens this is our mid range lens.
Lastly, prepare yourself for an adjustment period when you transition to varifocal glasses. You may need some time to get used to the lens design, especially when switching between different distances. Wearing the glasses consistently is important to allow your eyes to adapt.

Bifocal Lenses v Varifocal Lenses?
Bifocal and varifocal lenses help you see clearly at different distances, but they are not the same. Bifocal lenses have two parts: one for seeing far away and another for seeing up close. This design can be convenient for those who only need to switch between these two focal points.
Varifocal lenses offer a seamless transition between different distances, providing a more natural and comfortable viewing experience. With varifocal lenses, you can easily shift your gaze from far to near without the need for a visible line on the lens. This makes them a popular choice for individuals who require clear vision at various distances throughout the day.
However, it is important to note that varifocal lenses may require an adjustment period. You may need some time to get used to the lens design, especially when switching between different focal points. During this adjustment period, you may experience slight blurriness or distortion in your vision. This is completely normal and should improve as your eyes adapt to the new lenses.
To ensure a smooth transition, we recommend consistently wearing your varifocal glasses. This will allow your eyes to gradually adapt to the lens design and optimize your visual performance.
At Direct Sight we have a range of varifocals for women and varifocals for men at affordable prices. If you have any concerns or questions about varifocal lenses, our team is here to help.
