Why is Varilux Ipseo considered a revolutionary solution?
Varilux Ipseo’s main technological breakthrough means that each and every wearer can benefit from a unique optical solution, designed from his/her unique physiological needs and as a function of his/her unique natural visual behavior. Compensation for all kinds of wearer conditions requires more than minor adjustments, and it’s more than choosing from a variety of designs. Every Varilux Ipseo lens is created from the individual wearer’s “visual fingerprint.” Each Varilux Ipseo lens is individually conceived and manufactured by using state-of-the-art freeform technology. Freeform is the only technology that allows the manufacturing of unique lenses without the constraint of having pre-manufacturing molds, and also pre-defined designs. Essilor patents in this field (designs creation, freeform, and control) make it possible to create a very accurate personalization for each wearer. Freeform technology generates a complex design directly from a “hockey puck” without using traditional tools
