Introduction
Occupational lenses are designed for intermediate and near environment (computer and reading). Undoubtedly, these lenses are the best choice to work at near-intermediate distances.
Reading single vision lenses have the inconvenient of not providing intermediate vision, which forces the wearer to make several head movements and put off their glasses constantly.
An occupational lens is the perfect complement to your current progressive or bifocal lenses, as they provide the freedom to work on your computer, at your desk, read a book or cook. Indoor environments are the adequate place for wearing this kind of lenses.
Occupational lenses are becoming more important in the intermediate distance where reading glasses are inadequate and progressive lenses have limitations in the visual field.
Neck & shoulders Comfort
Maintaining a correct and comfortable posture is essential to prevent neck and shoulders pain. Users of bifocals and standard progressives need to tilt the head about 20 degrees when working with computers, being this position the turning point of the mentioned muscles overload.
Occupational lenses allow users to work in a natural posture due to their power distribution, especially conceived for indoor environments. Thanks to the expanded near-intermediate visual fields of occupational designs wearers will reduce their necessary head movements.

Instant adaptation
Occupational designs are also soft designs with a comfortable transition between distances. The focusing point is really easy to find, reducing the adaptation time. Mixing expanded near-intermediate fields with soft transitions the final result is a top comfortable lens with nearly instant adaptation.
