    ZEISS Digital Light 2 lenses are designed to meet the vision needs of spectacle lens wearers who experience tired eyes or blurred near vision at the end of the day. The lens design is optimised for non-lens or single vision lens wearers whose eyes are unaccustomed to different visual zones. ZEISS Digital Light 2 lenses provide accommodative support in the lower lens part with a fixed addition of +0.50D or 1.00D for comfortable reading of close-up objects, specifically of digital devices and are available in 2 tiers:

    • ZEISS Digital Light 2 3D​
    • Medium fields of clear view
    • Soft increase of blur distributed across the peripheral areas
    • Easy reading of digital devices (smartphones, tablets etc.)

  • ZEISS Progressive Light 2 lenses

    ZEISS Progressive Light 2 lenses are designed to meet the vision needs of spectacle lens wearers who are experiencing presbyopia and need an addition power of more than 0.75D. ZEISS Progressive Light 2 lenses have a moderate-soft design, which means they have a medium field of clear view but show a soft increase in blur distributed across the peripheral areas. As a result, the transition to blur is moderate soft. ZEISS Progressive Light 2 lenses start from +0.75D up to +4.00D addition power and are available in four variations to meet different visual needs:

    • ZEISS Progressive Light 2D​
    • ZEISS Progressive Light 2 3D​
    • ZEISS Progressive Light 2 3Dv​
    • Large clear zones
    • Low blur in lens periphery
    • Accommodative support for comfortable reading with large near zone

    For the customers who would like to restore their natural vision effortlessly with one pair of glasses.

  • Digitalisation of mature groups

    More people spend more time with digital devices and activities close by. This is the trend across all age groups, specifically among the mature ones.1

  • The “first-timers of progressive wear”

    GenXers and Millennials, who reach the end of their 30s/mid 40s2 now start to wear spectacles for the first time in their lives. 

Mobile internet usage has worked its way into our daily lives.

  • 96 %

    of the Norwegian population accessed online banking sites in 2022.3

  • 5 billion

    unique users in the global mobile population in 2022.4

  • 3.76 million

    apps available for Android in 2023.5

The average customer's eyes face different challenges daily.

The use of smartphones has changed people's lifestyles. More people spend more time with digital devices and activities close by. This trend is valid across all age groups.1

  • The use of digital devices and their all-day presence in consumers' daily lives have a significant impact on their reading behaviour.
  • For example: the reading distance has changed from 40 cm for print media (books, newspapers) to 30–35 cm for digital devices (smartphones, tablets).6

Natural vision, fast adaptation – for first-timers and mature wearers.

  • Natural vision, fast adaptation​

    ZEISS Progressive Light 2 lenses have a moderate-soft design, which means they have a medium field of clear view but show ​a soft increase of blur distributed across the peripheral areas. ​As a result, the transition to blur is moderate-soft.​

    This allows for fast adaptation and natural vision at all distances for the wearer.​

  • Innovative technologies for mature eyes​

  • Icon showing an eye and an arrow and an arrow pointing upwards symbolizing age intelligence.
    Synchronisation between left and right eye

    The binocular optimisation for distance and near vision ensures the optical images are synchronized between the left and right eyes.
