    Hi Index single line bifocal transition lenses

    I think I found the answer, but given that I only recently discovered how little I know about something that has been sitting on my face for the last 40+ years I thought I'd solicit this forums valuable advice.

    Does transitions make a single line bifocal in high index or polycarb (or anything else)? If not, is there a more reliably adapted progressive with peripheral vision in line with a single vision lens? I saw an interesting post for the Varilux Liberty™ is anyone familiar with this lens?



    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Transitions brand photochromics in a flat top bifocal go from a 1.50-1.56 index range.

    If you want something thinner, Vision Ease has released their lifeRx which is a photo poly that is available in a st-28.

    There is also an option in a round-segment bifocal. Just "click" here:
