COLUMBUS, Ohio--Optical Distribution Corp., the exclusive U.S. distributor of Rodenstock ophthalmic products, is launching Multigressiv MyView at International Vision Expo West. The newest generation in Rodenstock’s line of optimized progressive lenses, Multigressiv MyView uses free-form technology to place the entire progressive prescription on the back surface of the lens.

In addition, MyView provides a customized inset based on the patient’s monocular PD, which further enhances vision in the intermediate and near zones. MyView also comes in three progressive zone lengths, with a minimum fitting height as low as 14mm.

Rodenstock is also previewing Progressiv PureLife, a classic progressive design that incorporates over seven years of actual wearers’ data, taking into account changes in human physiology that affect viewing angles. ■
