Zeiss digital lenses
Smart phones, tablets and gps systems have become a massive part of modern day life. These are devices we often use everyday and for long periods of time. In fact in 2013 mobile-connected devices exceeded the world population for the first time.
For people aged between 30 and 49 in the UK
- 75% are smart phone users
- 63% spend 5 hours or more using digital devices everyday
- 29% have a tablet or e-book reader
This use of digital devices creates new challenges for our eyes, looking at digital screens means the number of daily cycles switching from far to near and back has increased. This is very demanding on the ciliary muscle of the eye and coupled with a reduction in accommodation, this can lead to blurred vision, tired or dry eyes and neck strains.
Zeiss are introducing a lens product to meet the need of people mainly between 30-40 years of age (although many others can also benefit) who are experiencing near vision discomfort for the first time. Regardless of whether they are currently wearers of single vision glasses or not yet spectacle wearers. The lens is designed to give the patient a large uninterrupted distance zone and comfortable near zone for relaxed vision on digital devices.
Product features
- optimised lens design to support close up vision for digital devices -large distance zones to match existing visual behaviour with single vision lenses or with out spectacles -allows smoother transition into varifocal lenses later on when these are required.
Benefits to patient
- helps the eye to focus more easily
- stress and strain free viewing throughout the entire day
- easy adaptation
- for universal use throughout the day
Zeiss digital lenses will help to make tired eyes and stiff necks a thing of the past. They help the users of digital devices to maintain focused, fit and fresh vision all day. A recent study has found that 90% of those studied where satisfied as the lenses reduced there symptoms of strained or tired eyes by a factor of 4.
