ZEISS Progressive Lens Precision Plus

Precision optics with any frame.

Among the many influencing trends in today’s world are rapid changes in fashion. Eyeglass frame fashion is keeping pace – resulting in newer styles, shapes and sizes.

Human eyes are challenged like never before
Research has revealed that the majority of consumers first select a frame, then choose their lenses. But not all progressive lenses fit all frames: limited freedom of frame choice or vision impairment are often the result. Fifty percent of progressive lens wearers experience limited frame choice.* In pursuit of fashionable frames, wearers are changing frame styles more frequently, from small to large frames and vice versa. Wearers have to adapt their eye movement behavior learned from the previous eyeglasssearch time a new frame with a new size or shape is purchased. This should be taken into account when a progressive lens is dispensed.

* External market research with 1,000 progressive lens wearers in Germany and USA (2014)

ZEISS Progressive Lens Precision Plus responds to the desire for unlimited frame choice.

2// Adaptation Control Technology provides an optimized corridor, adapted to the wearer’s learned eye declination

Adaptation Control Technology takes into account the eye declination (vertical eye movement behavior). It compares the previous frame with the new fitting height and addition power in order to create a comfortable eye declination and near zone location.

New bigger frame with Adaptation Control Technology:

The progressive lens wearer is accustomed to a certain eye movement from the far to near zones and vice versa with his or her current progressive lenses.  

Accustomed near point location     Conventional calculated near point location     Optimised near point location

Adaptation Control Technology

New bigger frame without Adaptation Control Technology:

  • The brain guides the eye to the accustomed eye declination, but the calculated new near zone location is lower
  • The wearer must get used to the new near zone location

Accustomed near point location     Conventional calculated near point location     Optimised near point location

Adaptation Control Technology

New bigger frame with Adaptation Control Technology:

  • The new corridor is optimized for the learned eye declination, providing a more convenient location of the near zone
  • Fast adaptation in any frame

Accustomed near point location     Conventional calculated near point location     Optimised near point location
