Many spectacle wearers experiencefourdifficulties during driving:
--blurred vision when looking laterally through the lens
--poor vision while driving, in particular at night or at low dazzling sun
--lights of vehicles coming from ahead. If it’s rainy, reflections on the street even intensify this
--estimating distances, e.g. when overtaking or parking
In short, driving lens should include 4 aspects to solve above problems.
--Unrestricted field of vision
--Less (sun) dazzling and more contrast
--Excellent night vision
--Safe assessment of distances
Previous driving lens solution more focused on solving the dazzling light with more contrast with tinted lenses or polarized lenses, but did not give solutions for other three aspects.
But now with current freeform technology, other three problems are also well solved.
Eyedrive freeform progressive lens is developed to adapt to the tasks that has very specific optical requirements, the position of dashboard, external and internal mirrors and the strong distance jump between road and inside car. Power distribution has been specially conceived to allow wearers to drive without head movements,lateral rear view mirrors located inside an astigmatism free zone, and dynamic vision has also been improved reducing astig- mastism lobes to the minimum.
It also improves the visual experience of the wearer when driving in daytime and nighttime conditions. Compensates for the effects of night myopia with a unique zone to provide better focus. Optimized vision for a better view of the dashboard, internal, and external mirrors. Reduces visual fatigue symptoms when driving at night. Greater visual acuity for easy focus and more agile eye movement. Near elimination of peripheral blur.
♦ Better vision in low light and poor weather conditions
♦ Reduces perceived glare at night from oncoming cars or streetlights
♦ Clear vision of the road, dashboard, rear-view mirror and side mirrors
So now days the best solution for driving lenses are materials (tinted or polarized lens)+ freeform driving designs.For more information, pls check our website https://www.universeoptical.com/eyedrive-product/
