Varifocals
Outstanding Vision, Exceptional Comfort, and Easy Adaptation
Glasses for everyday use, with less adaptation time, easy to get used to - sounds too good to be true? It really isn't! Modern, customised varifocals simultaneously correct a multitude of visual defects, offering exceptional visual comfort with superior compatibility. Innovative progressive lenses help wearers finally see well with a smooth transition between all distances.

When Do You Need Varifocal Glasses?
It will happen to almost everyone sooner or later. Most people notice this at the age of 45: fine print becomes harder to decipher, eyes get tired from reading in poor light, and symbols and text on a smartphone screen appear blurred. In most cases, this is the onset of presbyopia: a normal process whereby the eye's lens loses its elasticity and can no longer properly focus objects at different distances. The most comfortable and modern solution is high-quality customised progressive lenses, aka varifocals. Progressive lenses are divided into three zones, each of which has a different prescription: the upper part is for looking into the distance, the lower part for close-up objects, and the middle part combines the near and distance zones to create the intermediate distance (examples of the intermediate distance are a car dashboard or the navigation system. To provide you with the best possible vision, we fit all our progressive glasses with ZEISS precision lenses - a quality feature distinguished by the letter Z engraved on the lens. The virtually invisible engraving is a guarantee that you are wearing ZEISS more precisely.
Progressive lenses from ZEISS
As Unique As You Are.
The golden rule for any pair of glasses is this: the more individualized and tailored to your needs they are, the easier and better you will see. Progressive lenses correct several different visual defects at once.
Moreover, just as no two people are alike, no two eyes are the same either. Progressive lenses must be adapted to the wearer’s visual profile to enable relaxed and clear vision. To ensure that your new progressive glasses are precisely tailored to your needs, ZEISS progressive lenses are available in four different quality categories that build on each other. Your progressive lenses should perfectly suit your frame, your lifestyle, your visual needs and your budget.
We will be happy to help you at the ZEISS Vision Center Zagreb - to help you find the best solution for you. Together we'll find your new progressive lenses and configure them according to your wishes - you'll have the same variety and convenience you get when buying a car!

Intelligence Augmented Design technology
Our premium progressive lens design is ideal for demanding customers. Is clear and natural vision important to you? Regardless of your lifestyle, do you want your new progressive lenses to provide flawless, relaxed vision all day long? Do you want a smooth transition when switching between different viewing distances? Progressive lenses with ZEISS Progressive Individual, IndividualFit® and Luminance Design ® Technology offer all these benefits. They are fitted to wearers more comprehensively than any other ZEISS progressive lens design and are perfectly matched to your frames, your face and your lifestyle. Do you spend hours at work focusing in the near vision zone, such as a computer screen? Or are you babysitting your grandchildren and constantly switching focus between near and far viewing areas? Progressive lenses with IndividualFit Technology are precisely tailored to these day-to-day visual habits, thus offering you visual support just where you need it.
ZEISS Intelligence Augmented Design technology uses scientific data on visual habits within the same age groups. Individual user parameters collected through measurement are compared with 12.5 million data points of visual behaviour of specific age groups to make the target design more precise. This way, the technology determines not only the distances needed in the lens in everyday life, but also what the eye and head movements of people wearing glasses will look like.
The result is that 85% of wearers confirm that with ZEISS SmartLife Individual 3 lenses they have full freedom of vision at any distance and viewing direction.
Innovative ZEISS technology combined with our exceptional understanding of optics means that this category offers you the best possible progressive lenses – including a whole new level of visual comfort throughout the day!
ZEISS Progressive Lenses
Uncompromising Precision, Uncompromising Quality
Tailored precision for your eyes.
Many different aspects determine how relaxed and natural our eyes will be when looking through progressive lenses. One of the most important factors is the optimum centring of the lens, which involves adjusting the eyeglass lenses to the shape of the face, the distance between the pupils, and the tilt of the head. Even small errors can drastically reduce the performance of the lenses, often with unpleasant consequences such as incompatibility, premature fatigue, discomfort, headaches and permanent poor vision.
That’s why, when manufacturing ZEISS progressive lenses, we take two key aspects into account: our digital precision eye measurements and careful, comprehensive adjustment of the glasses. To ensure such high quality, our ZEISS VISION CENTER Zagreb relies on top-of-the-line precision instruments and special analytical processes that allow for precise calculation of the frame and lens position down to 1/10 of a millimetre. Uncompromisingly precise, uncompromisingly high-quality.
Easy and fast adaptation.
Whether you already have experience with progressive lenses or are buying them for the first time, regardless of which of the four categories you choose, ZEISS progressive lenses are designed for exceptional visual comfort with easy adaptation. When producing your progressive lenses, we take into account an incredible number of factors and wearer data. This allows us to produce high-quality progressive lenses tailored to the needs of each patient.
Spectacle lenses – incredibly thin and incredibly light.
Ideally, progressive lenses should be thin and lightweight. The lighter the frames and lenses, the more comfortable they are to wear. Modern manufacturing methods and high-quality materials enable us to produce attractive thin lenses, even with high prescription and unique vision problems. This eliminates the unattractive googly eye effect.

Equip Your Progressive Glasses with Blue Light Protection

Light sources such as a smartphone, TV, LED lamp or laptop emit much more blue light than ever before. Blue light can completely disrupt our internal clocks, cause insomnia and prevent us from getting a good night's sleep. Some people find this light unpleasant or tiring.
Greater visual comfort is achieved by using a special blue light filter ZEISS BlueGuard DuraVision Platinum UV. It works very well under artificial light and helps people who are looking for a way to protect their eyes from harmful blue light. In addition to the blue light filter, lenses with ZEISS ZEISS BlueGuard DuraVision Platinum UV also have a hard coating that protects against scratches and glare, CleanCoat finish for easy cleaning, and a ZEISS patented antistatic coating to prevent dust buildup on the lens surface.
Did You Know?
Our Tip for Progressive Lenses
Did you know there are ways to get used to your progressive lenses more quickly? Our tip: the sooner you opt for progressive lenses, the easier it will be to get used to wearing them. If your near vision correction is still low, the transitions in progressive lenses will be more subtle, making it easier for you to get used to wearing them. At first, you should wear your new progressive glasses regularly, ideally from morning to evening. This way, your eyes will quickly adapt to different viewing zones.
