Abstract

An ophthalmic progressive addition lens for a myopic and presbyopic wearer having a mean refractive power, PPO(α, β), a module of resulting astigmatism, ASR(α, β), an acuity loss value ACU(α, β), wherein the (α, β) functions are determined in as-worn conditions of the lens by the wearer, and a first acuity criterion, AcuityCriterion1 which fulfils following requirement: AcuityCriterion1≥1340 D2·deg2, and wherein: AcuityCriterion1 is defined as a combination of PPO(α, β), ASR(α, β), ADDp, and ACU(α, β).
