Bifocal Lenses vs Progressive Lenses for Driving

Driving requires clear distance vision and the ability to shift attention between the road, mirrors, dashboard and other visual targets. Bifocal and progressive lenses can both be used by some drivers, but they provide different viewing zones.

Traditional bifocals generally provide a large distance zone with a near segment below. Progressives provide a gradual range of powers and may include intermediate vision. The most suitable design depends on your prescription and how you use your glasses.

Driving Considerations

Make sure your prescription is current and that your vision meets applicable driving requirements. If you notice difficulty seeing signs, mirrors or dashboard information, have your vision checked.

Some people like the clear distance zone of bifocals, while others prefer the broader range of progressives. Your eye-care professional can help you decide.
