Digital Progressive Vision Lenses

Designed to correct presbyopia, progressive lenses ensure excellent near, intermediate and far vision, replacing unsightly segmented bifocals.

Lens technology is constantly evolving and Nikon is at the forefront with its flair for precision manufacturing and its development of patented progressive designs. Nikon, the first manufacturer to produce digital progressive lenses in Canada, carries four different series of lenses, each ahead of its time. The technology shared by these lenses makes them compatible with small frames for a global dynamic vision, a vastly enhanced field of vision and an improved visual ergonomy – while almost eliminating any adaptation period. This means that you, the wearer of Nikon digital progressive lenses, will benefit instantaneously from the smooth and large field of vision.

SeeMax Power AP



In Nikon's pursuit for continuous innovation in optical technologies, a new breakthrough in progressive lens design has generated new possibilities for advancements in presbyopic correction. Up to now progressive lenses have been manufactured using preset values. Using advanced digital calculations, Nikon is able to take into account individual facial profiles in the design of each lens. Integrating these additional measurements to the lens design, SeeMax POWER AP provides the widest and sharpest visual definition possible and effortless adaptation.


Optimal Visual Performance

Every person's facial features are unique. These physiological differences change how the selected frame rests on your face and directly influence the accuracy of the lens performance.


Individual Frame Fitting Measurements


3Dθ Progressive Power Aberration FilterTM

The new 3Dθ (theta) design incorporates an advanced Aberration FilterTM within the frame shape that controls the lens design with 25 times more optical precision thus enhancing visual sharpness and providing instantaneous adaptation.



Customized Reading Zone



The reading zone in progressive lenses has traditionally been limited to a preset area which conforms to the average near vision requirements. However, if your eye convergence does not follow the standard path, you will not benefit from the lens' full reading zone.

Nikon W - Keeps distortion out and definition in



The world's first bi-aspheric progressive lens with proprietary back surface Aberration Filter™ - By far the most common complaint when it comes to progressive lenses is distortion. People often mention blurriness and difficult transitions from one visual zone to the next, both of which significantly compromise wearer comfort. With Nikon's revolutionary Aberration Filter™ (''aberration'' being the optical term for distortion), new Nikon W is specially engineered to eliminate such constraints, resulting in a spectacular advance in performance over traditional progressive lenses.

How it works?
The front surface of any progressive lens naturally generates a certain amount of distortion (because of curvature variations in power control, etc.). Nikon W is the first progressive lens of its kind with a back surface Aberration Filter™ designed to compensate for such distortion.

The Nikon W Aberration Filter™ effectively nullifies the distortion caused by the front of the lens.
The result : virtually distortion-free vision.

Benefits to you:
- A clearer, sharper image across the entire lens
- Virtually no distortion
- A significantly wider field of vision
- Greater visual comfort and adaptability
- An ultra-light, ultra-thin lens

Nikon W is suitable for people who wear:
- Progressive lenses (even first-time wearers)
- Bifocals
- Reading lenses
- Lenses for intensive near vision
- Lenses for intensive intermediate vision (i.e., computer users)
- Lenses for active use
- Frames of any size (even the very smallest)
- Available in Transitions®
