The Science Behind Newton™ Lenses: Understanding Contoured Prism Technology

Most of us spend a lot of time on phones, computers, and other screens. While these devices make life easier, they also place extra strain on our eyes. Many people deal with headaches, eye fatigue, neck pain, or trouble focusing and don’t realize it may be because their eyes aren’t working together as well as they should. That’s where Newton™ lenses, formerly Neurolens®, come in. At InVision Eye Health, we’re proud to offer Newton™ lenses in Sandy, Utah to help patients find real relief from digital eye strain and discomfort.
 

What Makes Newton™ Lenses Unique?

Regular glasses correct vision problems like nearsightedness or astigmatism. Newton™ lenses go one step further by addressing eye misalignment - a common issue that can cause uncomfortable symptoms.

When the eyes don’t line up perfectly, your brain and neck muscles work harder to keep things clear and in focus. Newton™ lenses use special prism technology to gently guide your eyes into better alignment so they can work together more easily.
 

What Is Contoured Prism Technology?

Prism is added to glasses to help the eyes focus together more comfortably. It shifts the image slightly so both eyes can align naturally. Contoured Prism Technology changes the prism power depending on where you look, giving your eyes the support they need at all distances - especially during close-up work.
 

How Newton™ Measures Your Eye Alignment

Newton™ uses advanced technology that tracks how your eyes move and work at different distances. This allows us to see tiny alignment issues that a standard exam may miss. At InVision Eye Health, we include this measurement in your exam to see if Newton™ lenses are a good fit for your symptoms.
 

Who Can Benefit?

You may benefit from Newton™ lenses if you:

• Get headaches during or after screen time

• Feel eye fatigue in the afternoon or evening

• Experience neck and shoulder tension

• Struggle to shift between near and far focus

• Feel visually overwhelmed by bright screens

Adults, teens, and even children can benefit from this type of lens.
