ABSTRACT:
A spectacle lens comprises a region (distance portion) designed for viewing at large distances and in particular “to infinity”; a region (near portion) designed for viewing at short distances and in particular “reading distances”; and a progressive zone disposed between the distance portion and the near portion, in which the power of the spectacle lens increases from a value at a distance reference point located in the distance portion to a value at the near reference point located in the near portion along a curve (principal line) veering towards the nose. The invention is distinguished by a combination of the following features: a change of magnification with a direction of sight is small; the magnification increases radially, starting from the distance reference point; the difference between the magnifications at the distance and near reference points is small.
