Depth of field for Shamir Computer (l) and Shamir WorkSpace (r).
|
VISTA, Calif.—Shamir Insight is
launching two new freeform progressives designed for the occupational
environment and daily tasks: Shamir Computer and Shamir WorkSpace. More
specialized than Shamir’s Autograph II Office lens, which is more of a
general purpose progressive for office use, the two new designs are
specialized for very specific use.
Shamir Computer provides patients
with a wide field of near viewing with clear vision up to five feet.
Shamir Computer is recommended for patients working at a computer or for
patients who are primarily stationary at their desk or workstation
throughout the day.
Shamir WorkSpace is the best
solution when the focus is both mid-distance and near viewing, with a
depth-of-field of 10 feet. Shamir WorkSpace is the best occupational
solution for those who are actively moving around their work environment
throughout the day.
Both lenses are available in a
14mm fitting height in the following materials: 1.5 hard resin, DLC
Trivex, 1.56, 1.58 polycarbonate, and SuperLite 1.60, including
polarized lenses. By including polarized options, these occupational
lenses can be used by trades such as auto mechanics who might be
outdoors and need polarized lenses. ■
