They haven't changed the designs. Its just that new ones come out all of the time. You just need to find out what brand of varifocal you got from your independant optician. The most likely scenario is that you got genuine "Varilux" lenses from your independant optician and an own brand from the multiple. We can identify the brand that you had by examining the glasses and supply you with the same There are lots of different designs of varifocals. They haven’t changed the designs.

I went to an independent optician and needed just a slight change in my prescription. However, when I tried wearing the new ones, I found that everything was blurred, especially using the computer for work. I eventually took them back and was given a full refund. I then went to a well known chain and still can't see out of these new lenses. I have been told that the lense manufacturers have changed the shape of the varifocals from a curved design to a flat design. Don't know what to do now as I really need some glasses I can see out of.

In the end - you get what you pay for !! It is also important to consider the "right" size lens (and so frame) in order to get the maximum benefit from varifocal. Smaller/thinner frames are either not suitable - or really need very expensive lenses in order to make a worthwhile difference.
