Solidar BASIC
An Excellent Entry Level Progressive
The Solidar Basic is an excellent all-purpose lens. Progressive designs are seldom absolutely “hard” or absolutely “soft,” but strive instead for a balance between the two. The Solidar Basic employs a softer design in the distance periphery to improve dynamic peripheral vision, and uses a harder design in the near periphery to ensure a wide field of near vision. This “hybrid” design sensibly combines the best features of both “hard” and “soft.”
