Shamir launches new progressive lens

Adapting to patient lifestyles that generate new needs, Shamir has launched the multi-purpose progressive lens Autograph InTouch AW.

The new lens, which features the company’s As Worn measurement technology, was said to address the needs and challenges to the eyes experienced by modern progressive lens wearers who are on-the-go and regular users of the intermediate and near zones. For example, when using digital devices.

Shamir said the lens ensured easy close-up focus on small text in the 40cm-70cm range needed for viewing today’s handheld technology, without losing sharp focus on immediate and distant surroundings. Wide, quickly accessed viewing areas were optimised to the patient’s head-eye-hand position.
