Varilux XR Series: A Breakthrough in Progressive Lens Technology

In a momentous stride towards revolutionizing the world of progressive lenses, the Varilux XR series has emerged as a game-changer, earning the coveted Silmo d’Or award in the ‘Vision’ category at the 2023 edition of Silmo. This accolade solidifies Varilux’s position as the unrivalled leader in the industry, endorsed by eyecare professionals worldwide.

A Lens That Understands Your Eyes

For the first time, Varilux XR series transcends mere prescription, delving into the realm of the wearer’s visual behaviour, all thanks to the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) based on exclusive real-life data. This groundbreaking lens is a testament to Varilux’s dedication to pushing the boundaries of innovation and providing wearers with an unparalleled visual experience.

Meeting the Modern Presbyope

In-depth research involving over 6,500 consumers illuminated Varilux’s understanding of the modern presbyope’s dynamic lifestyle and unique visual challenges. With the increasing prevalence of digital devices, our eyes now perform over 100,000 movements in a single day, emphasizing the need for lenses that adapt seamlessly to our rapidly changing visual environment.

Today’s presbyopes demand lenses that facilitate swift transitions from near to far work, even on the move. The Varilux XR series rises to the occasion, offering instant sharpness in motion, catering to the demands of the modern world.

Harnessing the Power of Artificial Intelligence

With a legacy spanning 60 years of research and development, and boasting over 70 patents, Varilux continues to lead the charge in optical innovation. In 2023, the Varilux XR series harnessed the capabilities of artificial intelligence to analyze an astounding one million real-life data points, enabling the creation of a digital twin of the patient. This data-driven approach ensures that each prescription is meticulously crafted to align with the wearer’s unique visual behaviour.

An Outstanding Visual Experience

Half a decade of tireless work by 500 employees worldwide culminated in the development and global launch of the Varilux XR series lens. An independent institute conducted a rigorous comparative real-life wearer test, enlisting a panel primarily wearing high-end progressive lenses. The results were nothing short of exceptional:

• 9 out of 10 wearers experienced instant sharpness at all distances, even in motion.
• 95% of wearers adapted within the first day.

Varilux: Commitment to Sustainability

Beyond technological advancement, Varilux is committed to a sustainable future. The Varilux XR series leads the charge in reducing plastic consumption, from design to delivery. An external third-party assessment demonstrated a 19% reduction in plastic consumption compared to the previous Varilux X series lens, resulting in a 6% decrease in CO2 emissions.

In a world where precision meets environmental consciousness, Varilux XR series stands as a beacon of innovation and sustainability.
