==Components==

There are three major components in your lens complxity.<ref name="EndMyopia Blog: How To Reduce Prescription Complexity">{{Cite web |title=Pro Topic: How To Reduce Prescription Complexity - Endmyopia |url=https://endmyopia.org/pro-topic-how-to-reduce-prescription-complexity/ |website=endmyopia.org |access-date=2020-06-05}}</ref>

===== Dipoter Ratio =====

The difference between your left eye and right eye spherical correction. EM recommends that you start reducing the dipter ratio only you have done with astigmatism.<ref name="EndMyopia Blog: How To Reduce Prescription Complexity">{{Cite web |title=Pro Topic: How To Reduce Prescription Complexity - Endmyopia |url=https://endmyopia.org/pro-topic-how-to-reduce-prescription-complexity/ |website=endmyopia.org |access-date=2020-06-05}}</ref>

===== Astigmatism Correction =====

You may reduce your close-up astigmatism correction first, then work on reducing your astigmatism for distance.

===== Astigmatism Correction Difference =====

The difference between your left eye and right eye cylinder correction.
