Everyday distance progressives vs.
computer & occupational progressives
Both give you a smooth range of focus with no visible line — but they're tuned for very different jobs. Try the simulator below to see the difference through each lens.
Look through each lens
Pick a lens, then choose what you're trying to look at. The picture shows roughly how clear — and how wide — your view would be.

Everyday distance lens
The lit-up band is the part you're looking through now.
The zones, side by side
A progressive lens stacks several prescriptions top-to-bottom. What changes between these two designs is how much room each viewing distance gets.
Everyday distance progressive
- ✓ Sharp distance vision — driving, walking, watching TV
- ✓ One pair for everything, from morning to night
- ✕ Screen & reading zones are narrow — you point your nose to aim them
- ✕ Long desk days can mean neck & shoulder strain
Computer / occupational progressive
- ✓ Wide, relaxed screen and reading zones
- ✓ Natural head & neck posture at a desk
- ✓ Great for computers, paperwork, crafts, music
- ✕ Blurry far away — not for driving or getting around
Quick comparison
Same smooth, no-line design — different priorities.
Which one fits your day?
Many people are happiest with both — an everyday pair for life, and a dedicated pair for the desk.
🚶 Reach for everyday distance if…
You want one pair that does it all — driving, errands, the gym, dinner, and some reading — and you're not sitting at a screen for hours at a stretch.
💻 Reach for computer / occupational if…
You spend long hours at a monitor or doing close work and finish the day with a stiff neck or tired eyes. These give you a big, comfortable field for screens and reading — just switch to your everyday pair before you drive.
