OPTICAL CORRECTION
PROGRESSIVE LENSES

Varilux Comfort New Edition
LIFE HAS NEVER BEEN MORE DEMANDING
ON YOUR PATIENTS' EYES.

New technologies, lifestyles and work habits are
now exposing presbyobes to a whole host of new vision challenges.

To meet these new demands, Varliux has introduced
Varliux Comfort New Edition - a totally new lens that provides an even higher
level of performance than the current gold standard, Varliux Comfort. Via its
exclusive Total Comfort System it is able to offer your patients:
Modern life
is so demanding on your eyes

Varilux
Comfort is a line of progressive lenses that has established a new Standard on
the market since its launch. With its high Performances and ease of adaptation,
it immediately became the well-loved classic of the optician industry.
Initially designed to respect the natural postures of the wearer in his/her
daily tasks, it provided a maximal Visual comfort whatever the activities. But
over the past years many new tools have appeared (mobile phones. MP3 Players.
Computers), which significantly impacted the Visual requirements (with
miniaturization. screens everywhere, frequent transitions between visions
zones). Recently redeveloped to fit this modern environment. Varilux Comfort
New Edition offers the wearer a natural Vision, whatever the distance and the
task including digital devices.



Widening the
field of vision ..
The Varilux
Comfort 360 New Edition, also known as 'Enhanced' in some countries, is a
sophisticated version of the Varilux Comfort New Edition.
Using the
latest technologies ensures all wearers a maximum level of performance for a
unique and comfortable vision, whatever the distance. The Varilux Comfort 360°
New Edition lenses provide a solution based on your visual deficiency.
These lenses
are characterised in particular by a wider field of vision, even in complex
prescriptions.

Wider field of
vision
Thanks to the
tremendous progress in calculation technologies developed by Essilor Varitux
Comfort New Edition lenses now have excellent aspherisation levels. The result
is an almost 25% increase in the width of both distance and near vision fields.
A softer design
As unwanted
astigmatism peaks and power gradients in peripheral zone 3 have been reduced,
there are far fewer aberrations. The power gradients are also distributed
equally on either aide of the progression, resulting in a better balance and
giving Varilux Comfort New Edition a particularly soft design. Wearers will
notice less swim/sway effects, and dynamic vision is more comfortable.
Repositioning
of near vision
Because the
power progression is shorter, near vision is more accessible making switching
between near and distance vision that much easier, and the near vision inset is
better suited to the wearer's convergence. The wearer's prescription and near
addition have all been taken into account when designing the new Ien3 to ensure
that their gaze in near vision is much more natural.
The Total
Comfort System guarantees a lens that is suited to modem life
As with all
Varilux progressive tenses. Varilux Comfort* Now Edition stems from Essilor's *Uve
Optics' lens development process (which uses physiological data obtained during
clinical trials with the Varilux reality simulator to test design variations on
patients). The Total Comfort System is a Varilux initiative that has enabled
the development of a lens that meets the requirements of wearers working and
living in today's demanding environments. By using the very latest
technologies, Essilor R&D are able to determine the exact behaviours of
presbyopes over long periods of time. A number of methods are used to optimise
the lens properties, from precise observations of wearer behaviour to carrying
out test a in real life conditions.
