Essilor Anti-Fatigue Lenses (Relief to Hard-Working Eyes)

Essilor Anti-Fatigue is a new generation of advanced prescription lenses that give relief to hard-working eyes in addition to correcting their vision.

When to Use:

  • Patients between the age of 20 and 45 (pre-presbyopic age)
  • Patients that spend more than 3 hours a day working at close range e.g. reading, computer work etc.
  • Patients that complain about experiencing visual fatigue whether they wear prescription spectacles or not.

Features and Benefits:

  • The patented Essilor Anti-Fatigue design supports the wearer’s accommodation efforts and thus relieves visual fatigue.
  • A slight built-in variation in power (+0.60 D) to support the wearer’s accommodation for close range tasks throughout the day.
  • The lens provides much greater comfort than a standard single vision correction, as the wearers’ natural accommodation pattern is retained.

Essilor Anti-Fatigue lenses completely replace standard prescription lenses whatever the patient’s ametropia, without changing their natural behavior, whether they are permanent or occasional wearers. What’s more, Essilor Anti-Fatigue lenses come with Crizal Aliz, a coating for greater transparency and better contrast.

Essilor Computer Lenses – Essilor Visual Fatigue Solutions™ Lenses

(Designed to combat symptoms of Visual Fatigue Syndrome)

Features and Benefits:

Essilor Computer™ Lenses are recommended for any presbyope experiencing tired eyes, blurred vision, headaches, or neck and shoulder pain, and are intended to be prescribed as a second pair to complement the patient’s primary pair of progressive lenses.

Distance Vision: Unlike any other computer lens, these lenses offer effective clear vision at distance by tipping your head down slightly. This lens is intended for indoor use and does not replace your primary pair.

This is my second visit to a Berkeley Eye Center. Dr. Reid and all the staff are great, they are friendly and very professional. I was able to get a quick appointment and my routine exam done in a timely manner. During my first visit to The Woodlands Office, my mother and I also received outstanding service.
