The Eagle Vision 4.0 is Visionworks's (Binyon's) Private Label digital progressive in the trivex lens material. I've never sen it but it should at least have better peripheral vision and maybe a wider reading area than the Varilux Comfort, depending on the way i is manufactured.

What are some differences between cheap and expensive telescopes?
There are hundreds of progressive lenses (also known as multi-focal or vari-focal lenses) available and they vary in price massively. The price mainly depends on the type of "design" of the progressive lens surface. Older style "conventional" progressives lenses are made using semi finished blanks. A semi finished blank is a lens which is already half made. The progressive (graduated) lens surface has already been ground onto one side of the lens. This is the part where all of the channels/corridors and reading additions are ground. An example of one of these lenses is a Hoya Summit Pro or an Essilor Varilux Comfort lens. With a conventional progressive lens, when your glasses are ordered, the lens laboratory will grind your prescription onto the other side of a semi finished blank. The wearer may find that they will be aware of distortions when they rotate their eyes to look away from the center of the lenses. Because of these problems, new lenses have been developed to reduce these optical errors (perceived by the wearer as distortions). "Free form" lenses have been designed to compensate for the errors. This means that the lens manufacturer takes into account the eyes rotation and tries to correct the errors that usually occur at every pin point on the lens surface. This technology is usually ground onto one side of the lens only but the lab will still use a semi finished blank to make the lenses. An example of one of these lenses is a Hoya iD LifeStyle (formerly called an "FD") lens. There are also lenses available which are completely customised to suit the wearer and they will be made completely from scratch without using a semi finished blank. They will also compensate for the optical errors at every point on the lens but this will be done on both sides of the lenses. This type of lens is the best option for any progressive lens wearer but it is also the most expensive. An example of one of these lenses is a Hoya iD Classic (formerly called an "iD") lens. Another thing that can effect the price is the lens material and any coatings or extra options such as transitions.
What kind of eyeglasses does roger daltrey wears?
The frameless - rimless prescription glasses that are round shaped use are SILHOUETTE "TMA The Must Collection"; the temples and bridge are Titianium. In regard to the lenses: I have seen photos Roger Daltrey wearing Silhouettes with light blue tinted lens that are of the old Bausch & Lomb "Ray Ban" round shape. SILHOUETTE does not offer that "form" (lens shape) for the U.S. The other lens shape is slightly more oval than round & appears to be 5 - 7 mm larger. In regards to lens brand & material: more than likely the lens are "progressives". This multifocal lens that has normal distance in the upper half. Just below the pupil is a channel for intermediary distance (computer), that goes down into an area that is 18 - 25mm wide for the reading power. I wear SILHOUETTES & Varilux "Physio 360" progressives because they are so light weight, @ 1/3 the weight of other RX eye-wear. They offer all day comfort unlike other eye-wear.
