Introducing Custom DeluxPI
Intelligent Progressive Design, Refined for Everyday Wear
At Crossbows Optical, innovation has always been about more than new technology—it’s about better vision and greater comfort for real wearers. With that philosophy at its core, we are proud to introduce Custom DeluxPI, our most advanced everyday progressive lens to date.
Powered by ProgressiveIntell, Custom DeluxPI represents the fusion of human design expertise and machine‑learning optimisation, delivering a progressive lens that significantly reduces peripheral blur, improves smoothness of vision, and enhances overall wearer comfort—without compromise.
ProgressiveIntell: Smarter Design, Better Outcomes
At the heart of Custom DeluxPI is ProgressiveIntell, a groundbreaking design approach that combines advanced computer algorithms with our extensive library of proven progressive designs.
Where traditional lens development relies on time‑intensive trial and error, ProgressiveIntell rapidly analyses vast design datasets to:
Identify sensitive parameters that affect wearer comfort
Optimise mean power smoothness across the entire lens
Preserve the core strengths of the Delux design while enhancing performance
The result is a progressive lens that delivers wide, usable visual fields with minimal peripheral distortion, helping to reduce the “swim effect” commonly associated with progressive lenses.
Superior Comfort Through Smooth Optics
Custom DeluxPI achieves a significant improvement in the smooth mean power profile, a key factor in wearer adaptation and long‑term comfort.
This is made possible through Smooth Optics —a unique design philosophy where the lens surface is derived from the ideal optical performance first, rather than being analysed after design. By starting with the optical needs of the eye and working backwards, DeluxPI delivers:
More even power distribution
Smoother transitions between distance, intermediate, and near
Reduced visual stress, especially in peripheral zones
The outcome is a more natural visual experience from the moment the lenses are worn.
Customised for Every Patient, Every Frame
Custom DeluxPI is a fully personalised solution, thanks to a suite of built‑in technologies:
EyeView: Corrects power errors across the entire lens surface
EyePower: Compensates for real‑world wearing parameters such as back vertex distance, pantoscopic tilt, and face form wrap
CustomFORM: Treats the lens as one cohesive optical surface rather than a collection of points, ensuring consistency and stability of vision
ProgressiveIntell : Machine‑learning optimisation for reduced distortion and enhanced comfort
Together, these technologies ensure each lens is precisely tailored to both the prescription and the chosen frame.
Flexible Design for Modern Lifestyles
Custom DeluxPI is designed to meet the needs of a wide range of wearers, including:
Everyday progressive users
Sports wrap and fashion frame wearers
Patients seeking enhanced comfort and easy adaptation
With corridor lengths from 10–20 mm, additions from +0.50D to +4.50D, and availability across all indices, DeluxPI offers exceptional flexibility for dispensers without limiting prescribing options.
Additional performance features include:
MaxView
Automatic Corridor selection
Variable Inset and Decentration
OptiEdge and OptiPrism support
Innovate. Together.
Custom DeluxPI isn’t just a new lens—it’s the result of years of optical expertise, intelligently enhanced through machine learning to deliver clearer vision, smoother transitions, and outstanding comfort.
For dispensers and wearers alike, Custom DeluxPI sets a new benchmark for everyday progressive performance.
