How to Choose Your Strengths

Choosing your powers is easier than it sounds. Here’s a simple way to think about it:

Step 1 – Start with what you already wear.
If you use two pairs today — one for the computer and one for reading — those are the same two strengths you’ll use in your Dual-Strength lenses: computer power on top, reading power on the bottom.
If you currently wear just one pair of readers, use that strength as your bottom (reading) power.

Step 2 – Choose a milder power for the top.
The top of the lens is made for computer and mid-range (arm’s-length) vision, so it should be weaker than your reading strength — similar to your “computer pair” if you already use one.

Step 3 – Why the difference matters.
Dual-Strength lenses work best when the top is at least 1.00 diopter weaker than the bottom. This creates a smooth, comfortable transition from computer distance to close-up reading — without eye strain.

Step 4 – Fine-tune for your daily habits.
If you spend more time on the computer than reading, choose a gentler top power for relaxed, sustained clarity.

Here are a few example combinations that follow the required 1.00 diopter difference and offer smooth dual-distance clarity:

Your usual readers Suggested top (computer) Suggested bottom (reading)
+2.50 +1.50 +2.50
+3.00 +2.00 +3.00
+3.50 +2.50 +3.50
+4.00 +3.00 +4.00

Fit Tip: Dual-Strength frames are grouped by face width — Narrow, Average, Wide, and Extra Wide. If most glasses feel snug at the temples, try the Wide or Extra Wide section. If your frames often slip or feel loose, start with Narrow. Not sure? Average works well for most faces.
