    Is it true that there are new progressive lenses(digital, free form, etc) which offer more midrange? I have given up progressives because they were so squeezed down to a tiny midrange.

    Dr. Sally Aldayeh's response:

    Hi Iris,
    There is new technology always, and progressive lenses are only getting better with time, However they are not for everyone. Optical dispenser are able to demonstrate roughly how much peripheral distortion versus working area each progressive design has. It is always worth looking into
    Thank you Iris
