Progressive Lenses Quick Start Guide | True Eye Experts

Dr. Teske from True Eye Experts, formerly The Eye Doctors, shows you some quick tips to getting started with your new Progressive Lenses. Progressive lenses are a useful tool to incorporate different prescriptions into one lens. For millions of users it eliminates the need for several pairs of glasses, or the limited (and unsightly) "lined" bifocal.

This is the most comprehensive video of progressives on YouTube! Thanks so much!

[SuperUncleRyan]

If I were given tree wishes, my first would be for perfect vision. I have been nearly blind my whole life and it sucks. I suppose I should thank God that I am not totally blind and count my blessings.

[elizl]

I’ve had progressives for years and love them, would definitely never go back to bifocals.

[annenyanjwa-thesingingteacher]

Picked mine today hoping I’ll adapt soon

[mustang]

Just after 0:23, a misrepresentation is portrayed, showing computer and reading areas going from edge to edge, as opposed to reality at 0:54 that shows glasses area that is not really usable at all.

I just bought a pair waiting 5 day's for them to arrive. My old ones (4 years old) have a much bigger distortion area but i remember when i first got them they where great once you got use to them. My new pair is the highest level they sold. The distortion area is almost non-existent, much smaller than the area shown in this video. Can't wait... They also have Transition feature which because i always wear sun glasses I'm hoping that helps me not have to change out my glasses when i go in the sun... $700 isn't cheap here in the Philippines.. Not sure what they would cost in the USA.

It’s hard to get used to one week now a little better so hopefully it gets better 😄

I just picked up my first pair on Friday coming from single vision. I find them somewhat ok, but they cause my eyes to water. The blurred perifferal vision is quite nauseating at times. For me the distance is too far on top, causing me to bend my head down to benefit from the distance portion of the lenses.

It's only been 2 days but as I wear them more I guess, I'll get used to it . Thanks so much for the video, my optometrist did explain to me the same thing . But thanks for the reassurance that it will get better with time .

[Thankful_n_Grateful]

I have progressives and I love them.

At first it was difficult to get used to but once I did I've fallen in love with them and they're indispensable.

It's very important to tell your doctor what you use your glasses for and what you use them.the most for...

I read alot and work at computers practically most of the day so the areas on the lenses were adjust for such plus additional magnification was added to make reading easier and focusing on computer screen better...

Also most important is ability of office & manufacturing of lenses and material used...

I had one place create me a pair of lenses that had polarization, antireflective coating on both sides, UV protection, scratch protection and darkest tint available...

They could not get vision correctly in the various zones to work, though they swore all measurements and specifications were correct...

They changed lense material and manufacture of lenses and used same prescription and it worked perfectly...

[chifan]

Well Done, plain language video. I will be looking at getting these type of lenses. I just a week ago had cataract surgery in both eyes, not a the same time. Now I use plain reading glasses. Thanks

[TheRgum]

Also if your prescription is correct you’ll adjust easier and faster as well.

[hdw]

Thanks, Dr. Teske. I have one query. Why can't we have a Progressive lens as you have shown in the schematic diagram? The top part from one end to another is for distance, a middle part from end to end for computer, and the lower part end to end for reading. Just recently I had bought a Progressive lens, but I have found it very uncomfortable because my vision was getting distorted especially while I am driving. I have again switched over to bifoculs. If it were to divide the glass into 3 parts equally without keeping blank areas, it would be the best.

[danr]

I can’t drive with mine on. The distance worksks fantastic but everything out of my peripherals and down below is blurry. So the car is on the left me in the right of me aren’t clear. I find I have to pull my glasses all the way down to the tip of my nose to keep the blurry spots away from my eyes.

[monicasmith]

Picked up a pair last night and there are multiple problems. I think problems are compounded by progressive configuration. Like others I was told to "get used to them" however my right eye is blurry. If you like smaller form factor like me, progressives may not be a good choice- too much correction going on in a small space. Also, other errors could appear like I have to tilt my head forward slightly to get the distance part of the lens into full view. There's no way I'd try to drive with the pair I just got either, an accident waiting to happen. Hope the rest of you have better luck, I'm going back to single vision lenses....

[poovarasanpanneerselvam]

Hi sir. is there any age limit to start wearing it? like you should have crossed 40 years plus

[citygirl]

I had a pair for 1 week. They are a nightmare!

[MẮTKÍNHTlTAN]

I'm 33 years old, Can i wear multifocals glasses ?

[demaris]

I don't like my new eyeglasses today. The frames are pretty but Im not use to this yet.

[MariaVargas-gxpg]

I recently got some and paid 643 for two pairs. It is costly. I hope they work

[lindagrundman]

I have short legs and use a keyboard holder, my monitors as low as they will go and do NOT sit below my eye level. I am also 32" away from my monitor. any suggestions? My recent visit it was suggested that I tip my head backwards - 8 or 9 hours a day? I think not.
