Multifocal
contact lenses
are lenses that provide correction for both near vision and far vision.
Multifocal
contact lenses
may be helpful for people who have trouble seeing things close up (for
example, reading small print) and do not want to wear reading glasses
or bifocal glasses.
Usually
multifocal contact lenses are
prescribed for both eyes, so they will keep the three dimensional
vision.
There are
several different types of lenses.
Multifocal contacts come as soft lenses and gas permeable ("hard")
lenses.
The selection of
type of multifocal contact
lens is based on factors such as: the age and eyeglass prescription,
the patient occupation, the lighting conditions for reading, the shape
of the eyes, the size of the pupils.
People may
adjust quickly to multifocal
contacts and the multifocal contacts work for many people.
Discuss your
trial experiences with us, and then decide whether
multifocal contacts are the right choice for your vision needs.
