FAQ
Who should use bifocal glasses?
Bifocal glasses are ideal for people with presbyopia, a condition where the eyeโs lens loses flexibility with age, making it difficult to focus on close objects. They are also suitable for those who need vision correction for both distance and near vision.
How long does it take to adjust to bifocal glasses?
It typically takes one to two weeks to fully adjust to bifocal glasses. During this time, you might experience some initial discomfort or dizziness as your eyes adapt to the new lenses.
Can I add bifocal lenses to any frame?
Yes, you can add bifocal lenses to most frames. We offer the option to customize your frames with bifocal lenses.
Are there different types of bifocal lenses?
Yes, there are several types of bifocal lenses, including flat-top, round-seg, and executive bifocals. Each type has a different design and placement of the reading segment.
Do bifocal glasses have a visible line?
Traditional bifocal lenses have a visible line where the two prescriptions meet. However, there are also progressive lenses, which are a type of bifocal without a visible line and offer a gradual transition between prescriptions.
Can I wear bifocal glasses all the time?
Yes, bifocal glasses can be worn all day for both distance and near vision tasks. However, some people might prefer to have separate pairs of glasses for different activities.
Will bifocal glasses work for computer use?
Bifocal glasses can be used for computer work, but the reading segment may not always be in the most convenient position for screen use. In such cases, computer-specific bifocals or progressive lenses might be a better option.
How do I clean and care for my bifocal glasses?
Clean your bifocal glasses with a microfiber cloth and lens cleaning solution. Avoid using household cleaners or rough materials that can scratch the lenses.
What should I do if I have trouble adjusting to my bifocal glasses?
