Move the glasses. See Pondicherry clearly.

Drag the frame around the picture. Outside the lenses everything is blurred; through ZEISS lenses it's sharp, right to the edge.

Every pair of eyes is different. Tell us how you use your eyes, at work, on screens, driving or reading, and we'll match the lens.

Single vision, done right

Forget you're wearing glasses.

Two lenses can have the same power and still feel completely different. A standard lens is sharp only in the centre; look to the side and things blur and bend.

A premium ZEISS design keeps vision clear across far more of the lens. It can also be made thinner and lighter. Drag the slider to compare.

FAR MIDDLE NEAR

How a progressive lens works

One lens, three zones. Look up to see far, straight ahead for your screen or dashboard, and down to read. There's no visible line, and the change between zones is smooth.

Far: driving, walking, TV
Middle: computer, dashboard, faces
Near: phone, books, menus

Precise centring matters most for progressives. That's why we measure every progressive wearer on the ZEISS i.Terminal.

Light protection

Protect your eyes from screens and sun.

Add these to almost any ZEISS lens. In Pondicherry's bright sun, UV protection is especially important.

BlueGuard

Reflects part of the blue-violet light from screens and LED lighting, with clearer lenses and fewer distracting reflections.

Self-tinting

PhotoFusion X

Self-tinting lenses: clear indoors, darkening quickly in sunlight and fading back fast. Also helps block blue light.

UV400

UVProtect

Full UV protection built into clear ZEISS lenses, the same level as good sunglasses, for everyday wear.

Pondy beach

Prescription sunglasses

Your power in tinted, polarised or mirror lenses. Fit them in your favourite Ray-Ban or Oakley frame.
