WorkUltraMax
Adjustable viewing depth for the workplace
Explore design and specificationsSpecialist Office/Computer lens with automatic power reduction and variable viewing depth. Its range must match actual screen distance and workspace.
Application and design rationale
Considering the working volume
A Soft office lens with variable viewing depth and automatic power reduction. Shared table values with WorkMax do not mean every design detail is identical.

Design mechanism and features
Prioritising peripheral aberration control
WorkUltraMax is a Soft office design emphasising gentler unwanted-astigmatism changes and intermediate-zone use. It aims to support screen work and reading, without guaranteeing headache relief or immediate adaptation.
Difference from WorkMax
The two models' base tables give the same NRP, addition, degression and distance ranges. WorkMax's description emphasises depth selection and WorkUltraMax's peripheral-error control; no numerical corridor-width superiority is supplied.
Working range and material
The stated overall range is 33 cm–4 m with Degression: Auto. The lens is not described for infinity distance or driving. Availability emphasises Clear material; enquire about other options.

Technologies in this design
- DuraBase
- Nominal-power calculations; also described as Nominal Power in the sources.
- Core Inset
- Standard automatic inset for near-zone positioning, as specified in the product table.
Measure before manufacture
Required parameters vary by design and must be recorded by a professional.
- Monocular PD
- Each eye's pupillary distance is recorded separately to align horizontal lens positioning with the visual axis.
- Fitting Height
- Fitting height is recorded on the adjusted frame in the natural position of wear; the required near zone must also fit within the frame.
- Pantoscopic Angle
- The frame's vertical tilt in the position of wear must be measured; example values are not substitutes for measurement.
- Wrap Angle
- The horizontal curvature of the frame relative to the face, describing lens positioning.
- Box A
- Horizontal width of the frame opening in the boxing system.
- Box B
- Vertical height of the frame opening in the boxing system.
- DBL
- Distance between the two lens boxes at the frame bridge.
- ED
- Effective diameter: twice the greatest distance from the boxing centre to the lens-shape edge, used for blank selection and edging calculations.
Design-specific inputs
- Working Distance / Depth Selection (33 cm–4 m): adjusts viewing depth to the workstation layout, such as a near screen, multiple monitors or a meeting room.
- Core Inset (0–4 mm): automatic adjustment of horizontal near-focus shift for binocular stability at working distances.
Monocular pupillary distance
For aligning the lens centre with each eye's visual axis.
Fitting height
Vertical pupil position relative to the frame in the position of wear.
Back vertex distance
One of the inputs describing the actual position of wear.
These are basic fitting parameters; additional inputs and the level of personalisation are specified for each model.
