In addition to standardized lenses, Varilux also offers personalized lenses. They are 100% tailored to individual visual needs and are adapted to your personal visual habits. We have been authorized Varilux specialists for 45 years. Thanks to a self-developed measuring and trial method, you can already test the selected Varilux lenses with us and immediately see where the advantages lie.

Visioffice, Essilor's sophisticated centering, measuring and consulting procedure, makes it easy to find the ideal lenses. The system measures your own eye code three-dimensionally and provides information about the inner eye pivot point as well as all wearing parameters. Digital images help to find the right frame.

Computer glasses / near comfort lenses If you have a visual impairment, sit a lot at the PC or in the office, like to read the newspaper or do manual work, it is best to choose reading comfort glasses. These close-up comfort lenses, also called computer glasses, enable continuously sharp vision in the extended close-up range and offer a larger field of vision than progressive lenses.

Near comfort lenses are more comfortable than conventional reading glasses or Varilux lenses because you do not have to lift your head when looking at the screen and remain relaxed. That's why you can wear them for hours without any problems, even for cooking, ironing or playing the piano with sheet music.

Reading glasses are not suitable for driving or watching TV, because their corrections do not allow sharp distance vision. At Nielsen Optik, you can try out computer glasses before you buy them. An exclusive service that shows you the numerous advantages at first glance.

Contact lenses As practical as contact lenses are: Let us advise you personally and provide you with detailed information. An initial consultation by telephone appointment is always non-binding and free of charge. In order for contact lenses to provide you with the desired comfort, they must be fitted appropriately and precisely to your eyes. We examine precisely which type of lens is suitable for you - whether hard or soft, whether daily lenses or permanent lenses. The actual fitting takes several sessions and ensures optimal visual acuity with maximum wearing comfort.

We recommend regular follow-up contact lens checkups to clarify compatibility and discrepancies. Because your eyes deserve the best.
