What Bifocal Round Lenses Are

Bifocal Round Type KT (Kryptok) lenses are the classic bifocal design where a small round segment for near/reading vision is seamlessly fused into the lower portion of a distance vision lens. The KT (Kryptok) design features a circular near-vision area that blends smoothly into the main lens, making the bifocal line less visible compared to flat-top designs. This is the most time-tested bifocal format, used for over a century to help people with presbyopia (age-related difficulty in reading) see clearly at both distance and near without switching between two pairs of glasses.

Key Benefits

  • See clearly at both distance and near with one pair of glasses
  • Round segment blends more naturally into the lens than flat-top designs
  • Proven, time-tested design trusted by optical professionals worldwide
  • Most affordable bifocal option at just Rs 250
  • No adaptation period needed for most users
  • Eliminates the need to carry separate reading glasses

Who Should Use Bifocal Round Lenses

Bifocal Round KT lenses are designed for people with presbyopia — typically those aged 40 and above who need different prescriptions for distance and reading. If you find yourself holding your phone or book at arm's length to read, or if you currently switch between distance glasses and reading glasses, bifocal lenses will solve both needs in one pair. The round KT style is preferred by people who want a more discreet bifocal line.

How It Works at Optiwar

When entering your prescription at Optiwar, click the ADD column to enter your Addition power (typically +1.00 to +3.00 as prescribed by your eye doctor). The system will automatically show bifocal options. Select Bifocal Round Type KT at Rs 250. You will need both your distance power (SPH, CYL, AXIS) and your Addition power. If unsure, consult your prescription or contact our support team.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Addition power (ADD)?

Addition power is the extra magnification added to the lower portion of a bifocal lens for near/reading vision. It is prescribed by your eye doctor and typically ranges from +1.00 to +3.00 depending on your age and reading needs.

What is the difference between round KT and flat-top D bifocals?

Round KT has a circular near-vision segment that blends more naturally into the lens. Flat-top D has a wider, D-shaped segment that provides a larger near-vision area. KT is more discreet; D-type offers a wider reading zone.

Can I upgrade from single vision to bifocal later?

Bifocal lenses require a different lens design from the start. If you currently have single-vision glasses and your doctor prescribes an Addition power, you will need new bifocal lenses. At Optiwar, simply order a new frame (or request lens-only replacement) with your full bifocal prescription.
