Varilux Physio
“With Varilux© Physio©, Varilux© captures the corrective power of wavefront,
a similar technology to that used in laser surgery. Varilux Physio is the first
and only progressive lens to feature this patented technology in a progressive lens.”
“Years of painstaking research have resulted in an revolutionary design and
manufacturing process – W.A.V.E. Technology. W.A.V.E. corrects progressive vision
by calculating and eliminating many higher order aberrations that reduce visual acuity.
Sharp vision has two key components: Visual acuity and contrast sensitivity. By dramatically reducing or
eliminating higher order aberrations, Varilux Physio delivers an improvement in contrast sensitivity—the ability to
see visual details and colors--by up to 30%. Varilux Physio is the only lens proven to increase contrast sensitivity
in all fields of vision.
Varilux Physio improves contrast sensitivity by helping patients in day to day situations as:
- Driving at night
- Reading the newspaper
- Experiencing the vivid colors in a bouquet of flowers
The result is an advanced general-purpose lens that delivers unsurpassed progressive performance to all
presbyopes. Bring patients even closer to “real world” vision with optimal clarity, depth and dimension with
Varilux Physio.
DESIGN
W.A.V.E TECHNOLOGY IS A BREAKTHROUGH IN DESIGN AND MANUFACTURING PROCESS
WAVE Technology: Design
Varliux engineering team is the only one in the industry capable of analyzing an entire beam of light, rather than a
single ray. As a result, they can more easily and accurately identify distortion, and correct it to achieve optimal
acuity.
Patented, proprietary software then scans the entire surface of the lens, calculating the targeted optical function
for each point and each gaze direction. The result is a highly advanced lens design that reduces or eliminates
many higher order aberrations to deliver unsurpassed acuity.
W.A.V.E. Technology : Manufacturing
A design as advanced as Varilux Physio requires manufacturing just as progressive. Our breakthrough 360°
digital surfacing process is able to apply even the most complex surface designs of Varilux Physio with un
precedented, point by point accuracy: 1/10 micron.
VARILUX PHYSIO:
FRONT DESIGN
Most presbyopes will get the full benefit of Varilux Physio with front design only. Thanks to W.A.V.E. Technology
these single-surface lenses dramatically reduce higher order aberrations and provide far greater acuity in all
fields of vision.
For wearers who:
- Are new presbyopes
- Are already Varilux wearers
- Want to upgrade from another PAL.
VARILUX PHYSIO 360°: FRONT & BACK DESIGN
Thanks to W.A.V.E. Technology’s exclusive calculation software, the back side of the lens can now be computed
point by point. This allows us to optimize the back side to complement and enhance even the most complex front
designs.
Our patented 360°digital surfacing technology provides for the ultimate in lens performance by allowing these
complimentary front and back designs to be applied to Varilux Physio 360° with absolute precision
Also for wearers who:
- Want the most advanced and accurate progressive vision
- Have a complex sphere, cylinder, or axis prescriptions
- Want the sharpest distance vision possible
- Spend much of their time in an office setting and need wide corridors in near and intermediate fields
- Have not adapted to other PALs due to lens design limitations.
BENEFITS
FOR THE SHARPEST DISTANCE, INTERMEDIATE, AND NEAR VISION DISTANCE VISION:
Coma Controlled, Sharpened Acuity — Only W.A.V.E. TECHNOLOGY makes it possible to properly measure and
control coma, virtually eliminating it and resulting in unmatched sharpness where wearers need it most
INTERMEDIATE VISION: Reduced Astigmatism, Wider Field—Due to power variation, all PALs generate
astigmatism. W.A.V.E. Technology is able to give wearers up to a 30% wider field of vision by adjusting the axis of
astigmatism vertically to make vision more comfortable
NEAR VISION: Extended Area, Greater Comfort—W.A.V.E. Technology stabilizes power in an extended near area,
allowing the eye to use a larger area of the lens comfortably, with a greater sharpness and comfort
LOW-LIGHT: Unsurpassed Sharpness—Aberrations like coma are more apparent in low-light conditions,
but W.A.V.E. Technology controls these distortions,providing wearers with greater power and precision.
