lentes bifocales
Explanation:
Hi, Marcia!! En realidad las "blended" lenses son lentes bifocales. Son las más comunes de las "multifocales", con la diferencia que tienen dos campos diferentes, sin transición suave entre el campo de visión cercana y el de visión a distancia. Se diferencian de las multifocales en que éstas últimas tienen una transición muy suave, desde la parte superior a la inferior y no sólo dos campos... Suerte...:-)
