ZEISS precision eyeglass lenses and i.Scription® enhance your vision and your life.

Every eye is as unique as every human fingerprint. A new patented procedure developed by ZEISS - i.Scription® - takes this individuality into account. In addition to the typical vision conditions, i.e. near- or far sightedness, an examination with i.Profilerplus® by ZEISS also analyzes the individual eye profile. Every person’s profile is unique.

During the examination process more than 2,500 reference points are measured, though the examination only requires the patient to look briefly into the device. It is a high-tech solution for the eye: harnessing the powers of infrared light, i.Profilerplus® by ZEISS generates a light point on the retina. As it is reflected back to the i.Profilerplus®, the light is distorted by the eye’s individual aberrations. i.Profilerplus® measures these aberrations to create a custom profile for every eye.

Unlike conventional auto refraction instruments, i.Profilerplus® also enables optometrists to take measurements of dilated pupils under nighttime vision conditions. This allows them to recognize and address vision problems that impact the quality of a person’s nighttime vision.

i.Scription® by ZEISS combines the information from i.Profilerplus® and your doctor's subjective refraction to deliver your best possible prescription. This innovative technology allows your eye doctor to provide an even higher standard of care.

 

How you will benefit
The benefits of i.Scription® optimized lenses will become apparent when you discover how much better you can see at night and under twilight conditions, when your eyes have to recognize people, objects and your surroundings in the presence of very little or no natural light.

Combined with the additional blinding effects and reflections caused by artificial light sources at night, such as street lamps or the headlights of vehicles coming toward the driver, these conditions pose obstacles and are stressful for the eyes. This causes the eyes to fatigue rapidly, which is dangerous especially for those who have to drive at night.
