VARILUX XR

VARILUX XR SERIES:
THE BEST OVERALL PROGRESSIVE LENS1

We live on the go, hyper connected. With more than 100,0002 movements per day our eyes need to do extra efforts to maintain sharpness while we are in motion.

Introducing Varilux® XR seriesTM, the first eye-responsive progressive lens3 that provides instant sharpness even in motion4

THE BEST OVERALL PROGRESSIVE LENS1

Varilux® XR series™ is the first eye-responsive progressive lens² powered by behavioral artificial intelligence.

Beyond prescription and eye physiology the design now considers visual behavior, a prerequisite for fast and precise eye movements.

9/10 WEARERS4:

_

01   Perceived instant sharpness at all distances, even while in motion5

02   Felt confident or very confident while in motion6

03   Felt adapted by the first day7

_

POWERED BY BEHAVIORAL ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE3

More than 1 million data points from exclusive research, wearer tests in real-life, wearer behavioral and postural measurements in-store were computed and analyzed.

Therefore, for every single wearer prescription, the visual behavior profile8is predicted to design a progressive lens that respects the natural eye movements.

XR-MOTIONTM TECHNOLOGY

The XR-motion technology allows the optimization of both lenses according to the visual behavior profile of the patient through two major optimizations:

– Taking binocular vision to the next level

– Precise positioning of the focus zones

+49% VOLUME OF BROADBAND VISION VS VARILUX® X SERIESᵀᴹ LENSES9

A new criterion, named volume of broadband vision, calculates the 3D area where the wearer can benefit from highly sharp vision on any visual target, even while moving, with a seamless ocular navigation between 30cm and infinity.10
