ABSTRACT:
A progressive simultaneous vision optical lens for correcting presbyopia corresponding to a low addition is of the kind in which the curve representing the proximity (or power) P lies in an area between a lower envelope curve P.sub.inf and an upper envelope curve P.sub.sup having the following polynomial equations: ##EQU1## where h is the height relative to the axis of the optical lens, i.e. the radial distance from the latter. By appropriate choice of the coefficients A'.sub.i and A".sub.i, the near vision area is made relatively large. Applications include contact lenses, intraocular implants and intracorneal lenses.
