ABSTRACT:
A progressive power lens whose distance viewing vertex power is a negative value and in which a surface refractive power Pf.sub.m in the main meridional plane in a distance viewing portion is larger than a surface refractive power Pf.sub.s in a plane perpendicular to the main meridional plane (Pf.sub.m >Pf.sub.s). A surface refractive power Pn.sub.m in a section in the main meridional plane in a near viewing portion is smaller than the surface refractive power Pn.sub.s in a plane perpendicular to the main meridional plane (Pn.sub.m <Pn.sub.s).
