Yes. Progressive lenses will introduce some changes to your peripheral vision due to power changes that occur in the periphery of the lenses. You may feel an initial difference in your peripheral vision that may require some slight changes in horizontal head and eye movements. Sensitivity to this area of the lens will diminish as you become more accustomed to the lenses. Varilux® X Series™lenses with Xtend™ Technology significantly reduce this head movement and also feature Nanoptix™ Technology, which further reduces distortion.
To adjust quickly and comfortably:
- Start wearing your new glasses immediately.
- Wear your new glasses continuously.
- Wear glasses as close to your face as possible.
For most, this period of adaptation will only last a few hours. Some people may require several days or even two weeks before becoming completely comfortable. If you have been wearing your lenses for two weeks or longer and feel uncomfortable with your vision in any way, contact your eyecare professional for an evaluation.
