Is It Important To Change The Lens Along With The Frame?

Dr, I am wearing a progressive lens of essilor ellipse type which I am using for reading also. Presently I want to change the frame of my lens only the frame. When I went to an optical shop they said that it is difficult to change the frame alone since i will find it difficult to read if i change my frame.Is it true

Hello
It seems from the history that you want to change the frame of the lens while retaining the frame.
This can be done no worries, it will not lead to any problems.
Before changing the France check your vision and if there is change in refraction you need to change glasses otherwise you can change only frame.

Thank you
