Single Vision Lens: a lens that contains only one prescription (distance, near, or computer)
Bifocal Lens: a lens that contains two prescriptions (distance + near or computer + near) separated by a line.
Trifocal Lens: a lens specialized with three regions that correct for near vision, intermediate/middle (arm’s length) vision, and distance/far vision.
Progressive Lens: a lens that gradually changes from distance to near vision. The progressive lens has no line.
