Endless Pilot Progressive
Personalized free-form progressive lens with a unique and innovative design that incorporates two zones for near vision.
Progressive lenses are designed to have the upper part of the lens focus on distant objects and the lower part focus on near objects. When a wearer has a need to focus on near objects through the upper part of the lens, this configuration is not sufficient.
The design architecture of Endless Pilot Progressive lenses is unique. In addition to a standard progressive configuration, it offers an extra segment for near vision at the top.
Endless Pilot Progressive lenses include IOT Digital Ray-Path 2 Technology which incorporates the intelligent use of the wearer’s accommodation into the traditional calculations for reducing oblique aberrations, resulting in a superior personalized lens. Oblique aberrations are minimized more effectively than ever before.

IOT Digital Ray-Path 2
Oblique aberrations are minimized more effectively than ever by incorporating the intelligent use of wearers’ accommodation into traditional calculations.
Upper segment adapted to the wearer’s visual needs
Endless Pilot Progressive lenses incorporate a lower vertical power progression with an upper addition segment. This creates areas for near vision at the top and bottom of the lens.
Near vision in the upper and lower areas of the lens.
An upper segment set to a fixed near or intermediate distance allows the wearer to focus on near objects while glancing at an upward angle. The 30 mm upper segment is centered 5 mm above the fitting cross. This allows for performance versatility regardless of the wearer’s position.
This innovative solution uses IOT’s Digital Ray-Path 2 Technology which incorporates the intelligent use of the wearer’s accommodation into the traditional calculations for reducing oblique aberrations, resulting in a superior personalized lens. Oblique aberrations are minimized more effectively than ever before.

Endless Pilot Progressive Features
Personalization
The design is further enhanced, when desired, by a complete set of individualization parameters that take into consideration the unique attributes of the frame and the preferences of the wearer. If no parameters are provided, IOT Digital Ray-Path 2 will utilize default values.
Compensated power
Lens power differs from prescribed power. The design is calculated, point by point, to ensure wearers perceive the proper power when looking through their lenses at every distance and direction of gaze, including near distances for viewing electronic devices.
Optimized for accommodative object space
IOT Digital Ray-Path 2 incorporates the intelligent use of the wearer’s accommodation into the traditional calculations for reducing oblique aberrations, resulting in a superior personalized lens. Oblique aberrations are minimized more effectively than ever before.
Consistency
The perceived power distribution remains stable, regardless of the prescription or base curve. This is especially beneficial for high prescriptions and large or wrapped frames.
Infinite design configuration options
Create a unique product suited to your market needs.
Endless Pilot Progressive lenses allow for countless configurations, providing the opportunity to differentiate for unique market needs. No other lens design portfolio is as modular, flexible, and versatile as IOT’s.
