ClearMind lenses

See clearly. Think clearly.

Are you in your 30s to mid-40s and need vision support in the near or far?

Do you have tired eyes or blurred vision at the end of the day?

Want lenses that provide excellent clarity and contribute to your overall well-being?

Open your mind to extremely clear vision.

About 80% of all the sensory input you receive comes through your eyes. This makes clear vision important for living in our fast-paced, information-packed world. To keep up with these seemingly endless demands, your eyes and mind work hand-in-hand. Our understanding of this intricate connection drove the development of our most sophisticated lens to date – ZEISS ClearMind.

ZEISS Digital ClearMind lenses pair groundbreaking neuroscientific findings with insights into how people see in their everyday lives. They’re designed to help relieve eye fatigue and provide sharp sight EXACTLY where you need it. 

The first of its kind.

ZEISS ClearMind is the first ZEISS lens design based on a global breakthrough in neuroscience: How clearly you see is directly related to how hard your brain works to process that visual input.

These lenses provide crisp, clear eyesight, which is scientifically proven to help reduce the cognitive load.1 They’ll help change how you SEE the world – AND how you FEEL.

Clarity when it matters most.

Clarity when it matters most.

When vision is blurred, the eyes transmit incomplete information to the brain. This forces the brain to work harder to fill in the gaps, which increases the cognitive load.1

We mapped how people’s eyes behaved during everyday activities like social interactions, gardening and driving, as well as near vision tasks like reading and screen time. This helped us understand when clear vision is most important.

Our research provided the basis for ZEISS NeurOptix: the technology at the heart of ZEISS ClearMind lenses.

This innovative technology informs how people actually use their eyes in everyday life. ZEISS NeurOptix helps people see clearly in the situations and moments when their minds need it most – all day, every day.

Energise your tired eyes.

ZEISS Digital ClearMind lenses come with a subtle boost of additional power at the bottom of the lens. This makes it easier to see up close, especially when scrolling or reading. You might notice the difference when your eyes feel less tired in the evenings.

In fact, 69% of wearers said that their eyes felt vitalised throughout the day.3

Wearers approve.

The consensus is clear: People love how they see AND feel in ZEISS ClearMind lenses.

96% of wearers confirm that they perceived extremely clear vision.3

76% of wearers state that the lenses increased their ability to concentrate on tasks.3

85% of wearers confirm a positive contribution to their overall feeling of well-being.3

A breakthrough in optical innovation.

At ZEISS, we know that there’s more to vision than meets the eye. It isn’t just optical, it’s also neural.

We took a deep look at how people’s brains and eyes are connected. Our pioneering ZEISS NeurOptix technology uses these findings to shape the design of ZEISS ClearMind lenses.

ZEISS NeurOptix technology is built on how people use their eyes throughout the day. Our researchers analysed where the gaze travels, which parts of the lens are used most frequently, how long eyes stay in certain areas, and how tasks shift between objects at different distances.

These insights help pinpoint the exact locations on the lens where people need clear vision for everyday tasks.

Incorporating ZEISS’s extensive optical expertise and an understanding of how blur levels impact the cognitive load, ZEISS NeurOptix helps optimise blur zones for effortless vision – top to bottom.

The unique technology intelligence of ZEISS NeurOptix is what allows ZEISS ClearMind to provide clarity where you need it while promoting a reduction in the cognitive load.1

This can help your mind focus more easily and concentrate better – which can improve your overall feeling of well-being.3

Transitions are easy.

ZEISS Digital ClearMind lenses have a compressed corridor into the near vision zone. This allows your eyes to switch quickly between focusing on near and far objects. The power for near vision is subtle, which helps your eyes adapt easily to your new lenses – if you’re transitioning from single vision lenses or wearing glasses for the first time.

They are also good practice for your eyes if you eventually switch to progressives. Getting used to them will be a breeze.

Any questions?

  • Digital glasses are for lens wearers who have blurred vision at near or far distances and especially tired eyes at the end of the day. Designed for people who wear regular prescription lenses, they include a subtle power boost to improve how well they see up close.

    Regular single vision lenses only have one power that helps your eyes see clearly either up close or far away. In digital lenses, the upper part helps you see long distances clearly while the lower part supports near vision.

  • Yes, digital lenses CAN help alleviate such symptom of eye strain. Tired eyes or eye fatigue often stem from focusing on near-vision tasks for too long. Thankfully, ZEISS Digital ClearMind lenses are engineered to support your vision far away AND up close. This can help your eyes feel more relaxed all day long.
    If you’re spending long hours on screens, you might want to add our ZEISS BlueGuard lens material to filter out potentially harmful blue light. It’s another great way to help your eyes keep up with everyday life.

  • You can order your ZEISS ClearMind lenses from your ZEISS optician. If you need one, it’s easy to find an optician in your area using our Store Finder. Once selected, you can schedule an appointment to get your eyes checked and share some insights about your lifestyle. All of this is important for your ZEISS optician to help find the best ZEISS premium lens for you. If you’re in your 30s to mid 40s, need glasses to see either near or far and experience tired eyes or blurred vision at the end of the day, it sounds like ZEISS Digital ClearMind lenses might be just right for you.
