New Varilux^® Immersia^™

Today’s presbyopes lead very active lives and their lifestyles demand constant visual effort, often in the near and intermediate ranges. From work to leisure, 72% of presbyopes time is spent in near and intermediate vision¹, with much of it spent on digital screens. Varilux^® Immersia^™ lenses are designed to support prolonged close range focus using in-depth analysis of screen positions, while considering a patient’s natural posture and ergonomic needs. 

This new design was tested in a simulated environment using AI-powered digital twinning technology and features W.A.V.E. 2^® Technology, for sharp vision, even in low light conditions. It is defined by three reference points, corresponding to the most-used viewing distances in our immediate surroundings.¹

• Smartphone distance – the near vision zone 
• Working distance – the area directly in front of the patient
• Conversational distance – the maximum reliable distance for in-person interaction

This provides expanded vision in close-up and digital activities² and helps alleviate digital eye strain.³

To meet different near vision needs, Varilux^® Immersia^™ lenses are available in two versions, each providing different maximum reliable distance—regardless of the prescription addition.

• Varilux^® Immersia^™ mid, offering vision up to 5 feet, or the average maximum distance of an object on a desk and of a face-to-face conversation in close proximity.

• Varilux^® Immersia^™ room, offering vision up to 10 feet, or the average conversational distance in a business or casual setting.

Just like changing shoes for a hike, switching to occupational lenses fits the activity and makes close work easier and more comfortable. Varilux^® Immersia^™ lenses are the perfect addition to any practices’ Varilux^® portfolio as a complimentary pair to a patient’s everyday progressives or first-step for new presbyopes. Available now!
