Transcript of 2020 FREEFORM RANGE TO SUIT EVERYONE
Everyday Designs
Crafted by Crossbows Optical during 30 years of research and development into progressive lens design. From a groundbreaking platFORM delivering superior standard designs to incorporating our cutting edge technologies, our technology tree can provide the Ultimate Visual Performance
CustomFORMThe platFORM for all Custom designs. A cohesive approach, utilizing all the geometric building blocks (splines and ellipses) at the time of design rather than simply minimising distortion in primary parts of the lens. The intrinsically natural design results in a better overall performance and higher adaptation rates as it does not only focus on distance and reading.
Smooth OpticsA PATENTED technology that is an extension of CustomFORM using optical building blocks
(mean power) for lens design. It starts the design with the ideal optical properties, eliminates the
negative impact of the swim effect and enhances patient comfort.

Supports near vision focusing by having a small amount of addition that
allows the eyes to use less of their accommodation and therefore allows
the wearer to continue doing near vision tasks for longer without tiring
their eyes.
CUSTOM SPORTExcellent progressive design for active and dynamic environments.
Suitable for wrap style frames, this design provides strong distance and more than adequate near vision.

NEW FOR 2020
Progressive lens design with superior comfort
SMOOTH OPTICS PATENTED technology which provides superior vision for the discerning progressive lens wearer. It is a radical approach which reverses the normal design process and has allowed the lens design to be created from the outset with a very smooth mean power profile.
• Superior comfort
• Sharp viewing in all directions
• Minimizes blurring or “swim effect”
• Faster patient adaptation times
• Greater patient satisfaction

Raytracing provides consistent optical performance
DIGITAL EYEVIEW Digital EyeView technology uses specially developed software which incorporates the results of raytracing over the entire lens to correct oblique power errors. Each lens is customised to the prescription.
• More consistent optical performance over the range of prescription powers
• Wider viewing areas for hypermetropes
• Improved distance area for myopes
• Improved image quality in principal viewing areas
Built In Technologies
Provides best as worn condition
DIGITAL EYEPOWER Digital EyePower is an extension of the Digital EyeView principles, where an individual’s back vertex distance, pantoscopic tilt and wrap angle are used to adjust the sphere, cylinder and axis of the prescription to give the best as worn condition possible. This involves using a complex model of how the eye looks through the lens.
• Best as worn condition
• Ideal for sports and fashion wrap frames

Improves cosmetic appearance through making lens lighter & thinner
EDGE BLENDING Edge Blending allows an improvement in the cosmetic appearance of higher powered minus lenses by flattening their outer edges and making them lighter and thinner.
• Central circular aperture unchanged
• Edge thickness benefit
• Variable aperture diameter
• Two levels of blending: Level 1 - Moderate, Level 2 - High
