The best progressive lenses are digital lenses. They eliminated virtually any fish bowl feeling, and are easy for patients to adapt. They are wider corridors for more natural viewing without moving your head as much. The doctor will evaluate your prescription, and your day to day visual demands, occupation, and computer use to prescribe the best type of progressive lens for your lifestyle.
