Pseudoaccommodation and progressive addition lenses.
The limitations of traditional multifocal lenses to replace normal ocular accommodation are well known. The recent development of progressive addition lenses circumvent many of those problems, furnishing smoothly varying power in desired amounts for various distances and allowing freedom from distracting lines. Optical characteristics, screening considerations, prescribing and fitting requirements, and the advantages and limitations of progressive addition lenses are discussed.
