Seiko Super P-1 internal geometry, customized progressive lens
Super-slim and lightweight, the new Seiko Super P-1 is the internal geometry, customized lens and the latest in the field of optical technology.
The development of internal surface progression together with optimized design and precise workmanship, mean that Super P-1 meets even the most complex vision needs of presbyopia and guarantees clear and comfortable vision in all situations.
Constant power on the external surface of the lens and progressive powers on the inside optimize image quality, reduce the thickness of the intermediate area and minimize prismatic aberrations by additions.
Distortion is reduced by over 50%. Disturbances in oblique vision are compensated for and stable vision that is uninfluenced by eye movement is guaranteed.
The fields of vision are wider in all directions: specifically, 30% for the near zone and 10% for the furthest away zone compared to the previous generation of lenses with internal progression. Vision is very natural and realistic in all areas, with optimal spontaneous adaptation and maximum comfort.
Super P-1 comes in the very high indices of 1.67 and 1.74 which ensure aesthetic advantages for the wearer in addition to a sensational level of vision acuity.
Seiko-Epson developed the Variable Aspheric Area Setting (VAAS) technology, which allows curves to be created and the required near value to be obtained. The new design optimizes all the parameters on the internal surface such as sphere, cylinder, axis, prism, base and addition, as well as individualized parameters. Minimum distortion and very wide fields of vision are the results of this design. Adaptation is fast and optimally suited to the lifestyle of all wearers.
Super P-1 is available in 3 different designs, 5 different progression channel lengths (18-16-14-12-10 mm) and in 9 Insets, which take into consideration the wearer's convergence characteristics. This is particularly important for optimizing performance in the near zones of vision, even with high adds. The eye therefore moves through the correct area of the progressive surface for each vision distance.
