About Varifocal Lenses:
Experience the world with clarity using our varifocal lenses. Our eyes are essential in navigating the world around us, and perfect vision is key to a better life. As we age, many of us face the challenge of presbyopia, making it difficult to see nearby objects clearly. Varifocal lenses utilising varying degrees of advanced digital freeform technology, offer a precise solution that adapts to your unique optical needs, ensuring you can enjoy every moment with sharp, clear vision. At Ilkeston Factory Specs we finish and offer a range of Varifocal lenses to suit your budget starting at low prices up to the latest technology.

Occupational Office Readers:
WHAT ARE OCCUPATIONAL LENSES?
Occupational lenses are designed for working professionals who need glasses for near vision work, yet need the added flexibility and range to see things a bit further away than a normal reading distance. People, who develop presbyopia at around the age of 40, lose the ability to focus properly at multiple distances.
Reading glasses and even sophisticated progressive lenses come with limited options for mid and near range visual requirements. The solution to this unique visual requirement based on occupational/visual needs is a variable occupational lens.
At Ilkeston Factory Specs we can advise and supply a wide range of occupational lenses.
