What is the difference between reading sunglasses and bifocal sunglasses?Updated a month ago

At Nooz, we offer two types of sunglasses for people with presbyopia: unifocal reading sunglasses and bifocal sunglasses. Here's how they differ:

🌞 Reading sunglasses (unifocal)

These sunglasses have tinted lenses with one single correction across the entire surface.

Ideal for:

• Reading outdoors (books, newspapers, phones…)
• Enjoying UV protection while having near-vision correction

🔎 Limitation: they don’t allow clear distance vision, since the correction is uniform.

👓 Bifocal sunglasses

These glasses feature lenses divided into two zones:

• The lower part has correction for near reading.
• The upper part has no correction, allowing clear distance vision.

This offers a smooth transition between near and far vision without needing to remove the glasses.

📌 Perfect for: walking, being on the terrace, gardening — anytime you need to read while keeping a clear view of your surroundings.
