Eye-point Technology™ simulates the human eye in every angle, prescription, and optical zone.
These techniques enable Shamir to create a sophisticated progressive lens surface based upon thousands of points of data. It’s this “design inside” that makes Shamir progressive lenses the most advanced in the world. Eye-point Technology™, a lens design optimization algorithm can simulate exactly how the human eye will see through the lens, by considering dozens of parameters such:
- Lens index refraction
- Lens prescription
- Lens center thickness
- Distance from the eye to the back vertex of the lens
- Distance from the lens to the object
- Pantoscopic tilt of the frame
- Pupil distance
- Thickness reduction prism
- Angular position of the object in the eye’s field of vision
- Frame dimensions such as Fitting Hight, frame width etc.
